Every city is made of stories: stories that intersect and diverge, stories of the commonplace and the strange, of love and crime, of ghosts and monsters. In this city an asylum seeker struggles to begin a new life, while a folk musician pays with a broken heart for a song and a butcher learns the secrets of the slaughterhouse.

Debugging Code (First Coding)

Children's Books

Computers & Technology

Gareth Stevens Pub.

Bugs are mistakes in code. A bug can make a program work incorrectly or even crash a computer. So, debugging code is one of the most important tasks that programmers have to tackle! This accessible, at-level book teaches readers about debugging and how it's crucial to their everyday digital activities--such as playing their favorite computer games. Readers will especially enjoy the photographs of young programmers like themselves at work as well as learning about two famous programmers--Grace Hopper and Alan Turing--and how what they accomplished through their knowledge of coding.

Online Safety (First Coding)

Perhaps no topic is more crucial for young technology users to understand than how to stay safe online. This vital volume has the most pressing issues facing everyone who uses digital technology today, including maintaining privacy, avoiding cyberbullying, shielding personal information, and using safe and trustworthy websites. It even takes readers through the steps of creating the best passwords for themselves. They'll be further intrigued by the potential of technology and coding after reading about the latest "smart cities" and two programming superstars.

Simple Algorithms (First Coding)

Algo-what? "Algorithm" might be an intimidating word, but its meaning is pretty simple. An algorithm is a set of instructions. Future programmers will learn the difference between a good algorithm and a bad one through clear, accessible examples in this inviting introduction to coding concepts. They'll also learn how algorithms are behind many of the things they do on the internet, from searching for information to making video calls. Finally, they'll be introduced to two real-life programmers, Phiwa Nkambule and Corrinne Yu, and learn how coding has led to their professional success.
