Programming is the way we tell computers what to do. It’s like writing a recipe, but instead of cooking food, the computer follows your instructions.
Computers are very fast and smart, but they don’t think like humans. They need clear and exact steps to follow. That’s what programming does!
A program is just a list of steps a computer follows to do something. These steps must be written in a special language the computer understands — like Python, JavaScript or Scratch blocks!
If you forget a step or give unclear instructions, the program might break or not work as expected. That’s why programmers have to think carefully and test their work!
To complete this lesson, you must get at least 80% correct. Good luck!
