Loops, variables, input/output - Lucy can't wait to get started with the new coding club at school. Finally, an after school activity that she's really interested in. But Lucy's excitement turns to disappointment when she's put into a work group with girls she barely knows. All she wanted to do was make an app that she believes will help someone very special to her. Suddenly Lucy begins to get cryptic coding messages and needs some help translating them. She soon discovers that coding - and friendship - takes time, dedication, and some laughs!

Women Who Don’t Wait in Line is an urgent wake-up call from politico and activist Reshma Saujani. The former New York City Deputy Public Advocate and founder of the national nonprofit Girls Who Code argues that aversion to risk and failure is the final hurdle holding women back in the workplace. Saujani advocates a new model of female leadership based on sponsorship - where women encourage each other to compete, take risks, embrace failure, and lift each other up personally and professionally.

Coding has been described as "the new literacy". So many people want to learn to code, but many don’t actually know what coding is or where to start. Many believe that coding has to be done in front of a computer, when, in fact, the opposite is true. This book is a beginner’s guide to teach children the basic concepts of coding using fun offline and online activities to inspire your child away from a computer screen.

She’s the one thing monsters and creatures of the Forgotten Realms fear the most: Zelli is a human!

Zelli does her work, keeps to herself, and becomes “invisible” to everyone.

Python coding is not something you can read about while relaxing on the couch. This book is for those that are ready to start working right away to write your own codes. I do not recommend this book if you are the type of person who listens to a book once and never opens it again because you think you have mastered the book's technical contents. Tech books are different from novels and other non-fiction books. They demand more than merely one listen. Buy this book if you have made up your mind to listen and practice it again and again.

The beauty in programming lies in the ability to create. As children, we conjure images of fantastical worlds within our head - imagining places, people, adventures, and monsters in an unending spiral of creation. Programming brings our imagination into the practical world, where we can create worlds that bend to our rules and enact anything you say. In essence, we become gods - limited only by the confines of our computers.

Before cell phones that fit in the palm of your hand and slim laptops that fit snugly into briefcases, computers were like strange, alien vending machines. They had cryptic switches, punch cards, and pages of encoded output. But in 1975, a young engineering wizard named Steve Wozniak had an idea: What if you combined computer circuitry with a regular typewriter keyboard and a video screen?
