- Create reusable code recipes
- Give ingredients (parameters) to recipes
- Organize code like a clean kitchen
- Break big problems into small pieces
🧠 Super Important Coding Ideas
Cool ideas that all coders should know - explained in super easy words!
🔍 Detective Thinking
Super ImportantLearn to think like a detective! Break big problems into smaller pieces and solve them step by step - just like solving a mystery!
- Break problems into small pieces
- Think step by step
- Find patterns like a detective
- Make computer recipes
🐛 Bug Hunter
Super ImportantBecome a bug hunter! Learn how to find and fix mistakes in your code. It's like being a doctor for computers!
- Understand error messages
- Find common mistakes
- Fix problems like a superhero
- Test your code works perfectly
📚 Digital Storage Boxes
Getting CoolerLearn how to organize lots of information! It's like having different types of boxes to store your toys - some for lists, some for pairs of things!
- Lists (like toy boxes)
- Dictionaries (like address books)
- Which box to use when
- Working with lots of data
