Coding Game

Practice programming the skater's movements. The goal is to collect all the floppy disks, using whenever possible a minimum number of instruction blocks.

This application is an introduction to algorithms and programming. Programming means planning and anticipating a series of actions to solve a problem. The 9 levels of games offered are of increasing difficulty.

Levels 1-2-3

The training mode allows you to immediately test an instruction. The "normal" mode executes the sequence of instructions after clicking "GO".

The first three levels (1-2-3) use only the usual instruction blocks:

• ↑ Move skater forward one square
• ↓ Move skater backward one square
• ↰ Rotate skater to the left (staying on the same square)
• ↱ Rotate skater to the right (staying on the same square)

Levels 4-5-6

Added the "repeat loop" statement: it is necessary to use this new statement to achieve the objectives. Its use is essential to complete level 6.

Levels 7-8-9

Secondary memories are added to optimize coding.

Evaluation: This is the total number of instruction blocks used to achieve the objective and the score obtained.
