Python gets a lot of buzz as easy to learn. And there is the www.codecademy.com course which makes it easy to have my students learn the basics of the language.
My question is, do you think it is worth switching?
So far my Pro/Cons list
Pros:
-Can point students to www.codecademy.com course.
-Simpler for new coders to learn
Cons:
-Not as well supported in FRC
Any thing else I should consider? |
Codecademy also has a new Java course, so if everyone is learning I would go solely off which program is preferred.
