Did you Know: We can use generators/coroutines in place of multi-threading?

Some of us come with a knack to program computers and with little effort we can get the computer to work for us. On the other hand, some of us don't have a clue how to even get started. We may dread the errors that computer programs give such as "Compile error", or "undefined variable" or we may just be indifferent to anything computer programming related.

It’s 5pm on Sunday evening and you decide it’s time to break out your 1st Java assignment, which is due later that evening at 12am. No big deal, you have plenty of time! What can’t you do in seven hours? I mean that’s like at least 40 games of Halo. You stall another hour (playing Halo) until six 0clock at which point you decide you better get started just in case. You glanced at the problem earlier...

My philosophy on teaching computer programming stems from my first college computer science course, "The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs". It was taught in Scheme, a language that is mainly for learning programming and generally not for software development. It wasn't the language that mattered, but rather the concepts of programming that were taught through the language...
