  • Polish Python: a Short Report from a Short Experiment Jakub Swacha Department of IT in Management, University of Szczecin, Poland [email protected]
    Polish Python: A Short Report from a Short Experiment Jakub Swacha Department of IT in Management, University of Szczecin, Poland [email protected] Abstract Using a programming language based on English can pose an obstacle for learning programming, especially at its early stage, for students who do not understand English. In this paper, however, we report on an experiment in which higher-education students who have some knowledge of both Python and English were asked to solve programming exercises in a Polish-language-based version of Python. The results of the survey performed after the experiment indicate that even among the students who both know English and learned the original Python language, there is a group of students who appreciate the advantages of the translated version. 2012 ACM Subject Classification Social and professional topics → Computing education; Software and its engineering → General programming languages Keywords and phrases programming language education, programming language localization, pro- gramming language translation, programming language vocabulary Digital Object Identifier 10.4230/OASIcs.ICPEC.2020.25 1 Introduction As a result of the overwhelming contribution of English-speaking researchers to the conception and development of computer science, almost every popular programming language used nowadays has a vocabulary based on this language [15]. This can be seen as an obstacle for learning programming, especially at its early stage, for students whose native language is not English [11]. In their case, the difficulty of understanding programs is augmented by the fact that keywords and standard library function names mean nothing to them. Even in the case of students who speak English as learned language, they are additionally burdened with translating the words to the language in which they think.

Email [email protected] Drawing with Recursion TJ Leone April 2005 . Introduction In the unit on Combining Functions, you learned that you can invoke a procedure you wrote from inside another procedure. In the example below, the procedure triangle.inches invokes the procedure feet.to.inches: to feet.to.inches :feet op product 12 :feet end to triangle.inches :side fd feet.to.inches :side rt 120 fd feet.to.inches :side rt 120 fd feet.to.inches :side rt 120 end One of the things that make Logo so powerful is that Logo procedures can also invoke themselves. Here’s an example (if you try it, you’ll need to use the Halt button to stop it): to circle fd 1 rt 1 circle end This technique of writing a procedure that invokes itself is called recursion. Recursion can be used to draw simple figures like circles or polygons. It can also be used to draw complex shapes called fractals. Fractals can be mathematical structures like the Sierpinski triangle, Koch snowflake, Peano curve, Mandelbrot set and Lorenz attractor. Recursive drawings can also describe many real-world objects that do not have simple geometric shapes, such as clouds, mountains, turbulence, and coastlines. In this unit, we will start with simple designs to explore the basics of recursion, and then move on to some fractals.

The aim of the project is to inspire teacher-training activities in research and development of creative didactic tools that could be implemented in both cultural settings. Different authoring tools are used as Subject Oriented Microworld Extendible “S.O.M.E.” environments in which student teachers design and configure didactic tools. The benefits of including this extended scope in teacher training and its practical implementation are discussed. Keywords Educational software, teacher training, collaboration 1. Introduction The Co-didactics project (Collaborative Research and Development on Computer Didactic Tools) has been established between TeaM Lab (at Eötvös Loránd University, Faculty of Science, Informatics Methodology Group), and CSD (at University of Vienna, Dept. of Statistics and Decision Support Systems, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group) starting 1st January 2001 and lasting for 2 years. Project leaders (Erich Neuwirth and Marta Turcsányi-Szabó) have been in close contact since more than five years and have taken all chances to meet at conferences and other scientific events to exchange views and experiences of Computer Didactics and how it is researched and implemented in their institutes and broader education.

  • Nokido Ju-Jitsu & Judo Student Handbook
    Nokido Ju-Jitsu & Judo Student Handbook North Port, Florida Shihan Earl DelValle HISTORY OF JU-JITSU AND NOKIDO JU-JITSU Ju-Jitsu (Japanese: 柔術), is a Japanese Martial Art and a method of self defense. The word Ju- Jitsu is often spelled as Jujutsu, Jujitsu, Jiu-jutsu or Jiu-jitsu. "Jū" can be translated to mean "gentle, supple, flexible, pliable, or yielding." "Jitsu" can be translated to mean "art" or "technique" and represents manipulating the opponent's force against himself rather than directly opposing it. Ju-Jitsu was developed among the samurai of feudal Japan as a method for defeating an armed and unarmed opponent in which one uses no weapon. There are many styles (ryu) and variations of the art, which leads to a diversity of approaches, but you will find that the different styles have similar, if not the same techniques incorporated into their particular style. Ju-Jitsu schools (ryū) may utilize all forms of grappling techniques to some degree (i.e. throwing, trapping, restraining, joint locks, and hold downs, disengagements, escaping, blocking, striking, and kicking). Japanese Ju-Jitsu grew during the Feudal era of Japan and was expanded by the Samurai Warriors. The first written record of Ju-Jitsu was in 1532 by Hisamori Takeuchi. Takenouchi Ryu Ju-Jitsu is the oldest style of Ju-jitsu and is still practiced in Japan. There are hundreds of different Ju-Jitsu styles that have been documented and are practiced today, one of which is our modern style of Ju-Jitsu, Nokido Ju-Jitsu. Ju-Jitsu is said to be the father of all Japanese Martial Arts.
