Money, money, money creates a simple ATM/cash machine to discuss variables:

• Naming and assigning variables
• Tracking and updating the value of variables
• Using mathematical functions in computer programmes
• Thinking like a computer

FUZE: Variables, loops and syntax

I have begun the new year by working through the programme cards that are available from the FUZE website.

They provide an introduction to BASIC and the central elements of programming like variables - use, naming convention etc.

Also practised some loop programmes using the REPEAT UNTIL command to calculate how many cakes are left if I eat some.
