Summary
"Have you ever wanted to create your own app, game, or website? Do you want to be the person who tells computers how to perform their tasks? In that case, you may want to become a coder. Coders write instructions in a special language that computers understand. Whether writing code for smartphones, cars, or robots, coders have trained their brains to think in a certain way. With the help of this book, you can start thinking like a coder too" -- Page 4 of cover
