Crocodile
ICT is the new ‘Crocodile’ program for studying
programming and control.
It brings a unique approach to Computer Science, combining
a powerful programming tool with a well-designed user
interface that is easily used by students.
Programs
are written using flowcharts. They can be set to control
images, text and animations on-screen. The interface
is highly intuitive - to give a command to an object,
simply drag a target symbol from the flowchart element
to the object: job done! This removes the need to write
syntax or navigate complex dialog boxes.
Crocodile
ICT gives feedback on errors and bugs when you run your
program. You can control the speed and watch as each
command is executed, making debugging easy.
For
more complex programs, an unlimited number of variables
and subroutines can be used. Loops are easy to set up,
and you can capture button clicks or execute code at
regular intervals.
