Programming language of 2019? Python beaten by trusty old C

Programming language of 2019? Python beaten by trusty old C | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.zdnet.com - January 12, 2020 6:58 AM

Programming language C might be 48 years old, but it's still hugely relevant for developers today and, by one measure, still more popular than Python. 

That's according to Tiobe's January 2020 language popularity index. Tiobe, which bases its rankings on queries on major search engines, awarded C the programming language of 2019 title because it saw an increase of 2.4% in queries over the past year, which was greater than C#'s 2.1% and Python's 1.4%. 

While machine learning and data science have propelled Python to new heights in 2019, Tiobe attributes C's continued popularity to the Internet of Things and the ton of smart devices being released these days.

No matter whether you are a seasoned programmer or you simply want to take your first steps in writing code, Repl.it wants to help you get from idea to result as fast as possible — without complicated installs and setup procedures getting in your way.

The Y Combinator-funded project, which released version 1.0 of its service this week, gives you an easy to use programming environment in the browser, which slowly reveals its complexity as you write your code.

 

The acronym REPL stands for read-eval-print loop and basically provides a programmer with an interactive programming environment. Unsurprisingly, that’s exactly what Repl.it gives you, too, and with 200,000 weekly active developers on the platform already, there is clearly a demand for this service.

 

Repl.it  already supports virtually every programming language you can think of, no matter whether that’s JavaScript, Python, PHP or QBasic, as well as popular frameworks like Django, Ruby on Rails and Sinatra. And if you want to hurt yourself and write in Brainfuck, you can do that, too.

Session 218: The New Computing Curriculum is here. Are you ready? | UKEdChat.com | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From ukedchat.com - November 30, 2014 11:08 AM

With many teachers suddenly faced with teaching the new computing curriculum, #ukedchat  explored how prepared teachers feel with this change within primaries and secondary schools across the globe. Throughout the evening, the following questions were released:








  1. Do you feel you fully understand the new Computing Curriculum now that it is time to teach it? (8.01 pm)
  2. What are the biggest challenges you face as a teacher when it comes to the new Computing Curriculum? (8.11 pm)
  3. How are you planning to engage the children when teaching the new Computing Curriculum? (8.21 pm)
  4. Are any of you adopting a cross curriculum technique of teaching by combining the new Computing Curriculum with other subjects i.e Maths or Literacy? (8.31 pm)
  5. Where do you go for inspiration on how to deliver the new Computing Curriculum? (8.41 pm)
  6. What training and/or CPD have you received or do you have planned to deal with all these changes? (8.51 pm)

Processing is a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts. Since 2001, Processing has promoted software literacy within the visual arts and visual literacy within technology.

Pareto principle - 80% of problems can be attributed to 20% of causes | #Quality #Time 

Pareto principle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pareto principle (also known as the 80-20 rule, the law of the vital few, and the principle of factor sparsity) states that, for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. Management consultant Joseph M.

From en.wikipedia.org - September 26, 2016 2:37 PM

In computer science and engineering control theory, such as for electromechanical energy converters, the Pareto principle can be applied to optimization efforts.[11]

For example, Microsoft noted that by fixing the top 20% of the most-reported bugs, 80% of the related errors and crashes in a given system would be eliminated.[12]

In load testing, it is common practice to estimate that 80% of the traffic occurs during 20% of the time.[citation needed]

In software engineering, Lowell Arthur expressed a corollary principle: "20 percent of the code has 80 percent of the errors. Find them, fix them!"[13]

Software frameworks have often been observed to make 80% of use cases easier to implement and 20% of use cases much more difficult to implement.[14]

In the mobile game industry, it has been noted that for free-to-play games, over 50% of the game's profit comes from 0.5% of the players.[15][16]

Microsoft Research Launches Code Hunt Game to Teach Programming

Microsoft Research Launches Code Hunt Game to Teach Programming | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From thenextweb.com - May 15, 2014 5:59 PM
Microsoft Research today launched Code Hunt, a browser-based game for anyone interested in learning how to code by playing. The premise is straightforward:


Learning to code can be made more effective and sustainable if it is perceived as fun by the learner. Code Hunt uses puzzles that players have to explore by means of clues presented as test cases. Players iteratively modify their code to match the functional behaviour of secret solutions.
