Programming can be fun

Just so you don't turn out like the poor ex-student shown here, I've uploaded a couple of 'ease-into-programming' worksheets.

Try out the first few:

• a Programming Overview
• an Introduction to Algorithms, and
  
• Algorithm Development

When you get to the exercises at the end of each, try to implement your designs using JavaScript. To do this you will need to know a little about setting up a script section, creating variables, getting input from the user, and writing output to the web browser.

Have fun, and please... if you find yourself waving the keyboard around and screaming, take a break and think about just how stupid the average computer really is.
