Scrath Tutorials - Animate It, Change Colour, Glide and Follow The Mouse

Yeah, so above is another example of what you can do on Scratch :-)

I've made the sprite change costume, so it looks like it's walking, and as it walks, it changes colour. When i press the space button, it glides to different points, and when the green flag in top right corner is clicked, it follows the mouse ;-)

Scrath Challenge #1

SCRACTH IS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE FOR EVERYONE, IN WHICH YOU CAN CREATE INTERACTIVE STORIES, GAMES, MUSIC AND ART.
Below is an example of what you can do on Scratch:

Here I have made the sprite (the cat) glide from one edge to another. When I press the green flag in the top right corner, it starts to glide.

Sample flowcharts

The blue flowchart will design, code and test and if there is an error, you will be able to go to the beginning and strat all over again.

The green flowchart will turn LED on, start timer, turn LED off and reset timer.

The red flowchart will read template and print the below or above freezing.

Below I have converted an algorithm into a flowchart. Don't know what an algorithm is? There are some definitions in another post below, where algorithm has been defined;-)

Wireless broadband and Cable broadband

Broadband means speed and is a collective name given to a range of high speed internet connections that are normally switched on.

Wireless boradband is ten times faster than a dial-up connection plus it is completly independent of your phoneline. You connect via a small outdoor antenna to a network of small community-based radio repeater stations. Upload speeds are typically half the download speed and if the service uses a satellite feed to connect back to the internet there may be some limitations such as not being able to use video conferencing tools.

Cable broadband is broadband delivered via a cable and is only available for people with cable service in their area. Cable broadband is optic fibres that offer an excellent way of getting online, watching television and using the telephone.
