The ins and outs of output

We’re all pretty happy to be continuing our introduction to programming with Turing. It’s one of my favourite programming languages, and I can see that my students are catching on quickly!

Today we looked at some details of output—you can guess that input will follow shortly!—and the sophistication of students’ questions showed that they’re really on the ball!

I was delighted by the perceptive questions asked today in class—students are listening with critical ears and working hard to ensure their understanding. What teacher could ask for more?

Of course, so far we’ve looked just at some very basic features of the language—just the ABCs, really. But with these basic features we’ll soon be writing some pretty clever stuff!

I’m looking forward to seeing my students’ entry into output!
