ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Online – 30 May 2020

We have survived almost 3 months doing the coding class online and we keep making progress 😉

Faiz is creating his first website today with HTML, CSS and JavaScript today

The result 😉

next is to create game with Python using PyGame

ok the first game Faiz created with Python 😉

Badi

is finishing Milagros website today 🙂

did some filter testing for a break 😉

Milagros website looks like on mobile device

Capt. Awa is getting better and better at Blender animation 😉

Baran is working hard on developing his game in JavaScript

The result is awesome 😉

Enzo is creating a multiplayer game with GameMaker 😉

AlFattan is still testing JavaScript commands to build stuff in Minecraft

Tsaqif is still learning how to startup the Spigot server and how to access the JavaScript commands to be able to build things in Minecraft

Ukasy is working on the same thing as Tsaqif 🙂

Techa is back!

He created a really awesome game but forgot to save it and lost all the data. Took a while to get him on track again 🙂

Irham is starting to create apps with Thunkable 😉

Fadhlan has got all the components now and ready to gradually deploy codes to SNAPBOT 3 to test all the functions

Adam is creating a Multiplayer Game in GameMaker

Alif has just joined the class, hope you like it here 🙂

Boy is developing a new game

while Ara is learning how to do animation with Blender under the supervision of Capt. Awa

Capt. Faris is working in the background, taking over screens and solves problems the kids are facing 😉

We’re doing really great today, just as usual 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Python Programming – Day #1

The first day of ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Python Programming 🙂

Captain on Duty: Capt. Zaki (and Capt. CG)

Back up captains 😀

We have Kenzie

Veyzha

Vius

and Ren

For warming up we learned Python with CodeCombat 🙂

CodeCombat looks and feels like playing game except it requires script to be typed on the right screen to give commands to the player to finish the challenge

Done with CodeCombat

Then we installed Python and open IDLE and start the real Python 🙂

This is a turtle code created by Ren 🙂

Kenzie challenge Python with this difficult name LOL

Ren succeeded creating a code to display prime numbers and a code to enter password and username but limited only three times 😉

Kenzie had to reinstall Python to be able to proceed with the turtle code

Vius steadily making progress he already tried the virus code 😀 and at the end, the virus code was gone. Wiped away by the antivirus LOL

Ren and Capt. Zaki having headache trying to solve calculating power in recursive functions 😀

Some of what we learned today 🙂

Tomorrow will be more challenges to be done 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Python Programming Day #3 – 31 Dec 2016

Day #3! We’re ready to create some virus, infect some files and recover them using anti-virus 😉

Zaky

Dea

Abit

and Arya couldn’t wait to see how viruses work 😀

We learned two virus today: a duplicating self virus and an encryption virus 🙂 For each virus there is an antivirus.

The code for each one is very long and cryptic

It took a while to type and debug it 🙂

Plus we have to be extra careful running the virus, otherwise the whole directory of python work for the last 3 days will be infected 😀

We had to quarantine the virus in a separated folder to make sure it only infect the files we wanted to be infected 🙂 Notes: running anti-virus will clean the virus file too 😀

This is how the kids look like after hours of virus-antivirus coding LOL

Dea had just lost her virus wiped away by the anti-virus, Abit start massaging his shoulder due to long typing, and Arya said “Ka, I’m giving up typing, can we take a break” for the tenth times 😀

So Capt. Zaki had to copy the virus file to Arya’s laptop after Arya promised he will type the anti-virus 😀

While Capt. Fizhan specialization is still: babysitting 😀

Here they are: our kids python programmers! Watch out world! They can encrypt, they can decrypt and they can create viruses that encrypt!!! 😀

The screenshots of our codes today 😀

Next week we will start Creating Apps and Arduino Programming Coding Camp 🙂 Will be reporting very soon! Happy New Year! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Python Programming Day #2 – 30 Dec 2016

Day #2 of Python Programming 🙂 We’re ready to learn some encryption and decryption 😉

Look at those happy faces 🙂

Zaky

Abit (isn’t look so happy but he really is! :D)

Dea

Arya

The helpdesk that is always to shy to help 😀

We typed lots of codes in Python today, and sure we learned a lot too! 🙂

These are Zaky and Zaki 🙂

Capt. Zaki had to take care of two computers because Arya’s wouldn’t install Python so he kept trying to install every version while copying Arya’s data to the other computer 🙂

There was a father looked very interested to sign his kid up to ProCodeCG class, he was trying to convince the kid 😀

Some bonding during the class

And these are screenshot of what we learned! We have learned some GUI, encryption and decryption using Caesar Cipher and Vigenere Cipher 🙂

Tomorrow we will learn some files I/O and virus-antivirus 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Half-Day Coding Camp Cryptography #Day 2

Today we started to do encryption and decryption with substitution cipher!

Preparation before the class started

Digilife Dago is a very nice and comfortable place, we have great internet connection, accessible power sockets, air conditioner, super big screen, clean toilets and a very friendly and nice musholla.

Most of the kids continue their codes at home and show it to their friends in the morning 😉

Some kids came late due to the heavy traffic, but they quickly set things up to catch up with the class.

We only have one female student (plus one female captain) in this batch 🙂 Not many girls interested in coding, probably because it is some kind of intimidating? 😀

We started encryption and decryption with Caesar Cipher.

We encrypted some messages and then try to decrypted them.

We also learned how to do the brute force! This kid (Farrell) count each letter just to find out the key! LOL

Yeah, and of course, kids love to play during the class 😀

 

The best thing of gathering kids in a class is when they working together and share things

Give them challenges, and their bright brains will surprise you 🙂

We also learned about ROT13 🙂

And encrypted and decrypted LOTS of messages!

We also made a decryption competition 😀

Some people might say that programmers have no life. That’s not true! 😉 Look at how much we are having fun!

 

Lunchtime. LOL (with hood and all) LOL

After the lunch we learn some password breaking logics.

Also about One Time Pad encryption.

We learned some GUI in Python too, to make the code user-friendly!

Coding and cryptography might sound pretty darn serious but look at these kids! No frowns at all! 🙂

  

And these are the screenshots of a bit of what we’ve learned today!

Tomorrow we’ll do more encryption and decryption!!! With Vigenere Cipher 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Half-Day Coding Camp Cryptography Day #1

Hello! The Cryptography Kids Half-Day Coding Camp began today!

We came a bit earlier so we had to wait a bit until the building is ready 🙂

Kids getting along easily. Several of them didn’t know each other but they quickly share things and became good friends 😉

Before we entered cryptography, the pre-requisite is to be able to code in Python. So we did some installations before the class started.

Some of the kids already had Python installed (from the ProCodeCG Kids Camp before 😉 ) but they forgot how to load it and start to type in code, so we started from the very beginning to make sure everyone understand.

Yeah. We started type in code in Python (so happy to have this big screen! 😉 ❤ )

We started from a super simple code (2 lines) to more complex code (40-50 lines). And the kids didn’t mind typing it 🙂 Well, because coding is not just about drag and drop 😀

And after they typed it and compiled it and see how it worked, they start modifying it (like changing the variables into very huge numbers) and laughed about it LOL

The result 😀

And another 😛

We also explored about more advanced thing like finding prime numbers 😀 Because kids need to be challenged!

And they can do it! 😉

They are not just coding. They make bondings as human as well 😉 Look at these kids 🙂 ❤

Friday Prayer break 😉

And the program is still running on some computers 😀

After Friday Prayer, we got newcomers! Vai and Tio. They catched up quickly!

We continued coding while having lunch 🙂

One of them said that he made 1000000 loops so the program was still running when he got back from the mosque LOL

This kid, Hilmi, use 2 computers 😀

This one, Farrell, should apply job as code tester LOL He always eager to find ways to make the code stop working or the computer got hang 😀

The kids answered all the challenges so the difficulty escalated 😀 we created 5 loops in a code just to see how it worked.

This is some screenshots of a small part of what we did today!

Even after the class, the kids wouldn’t stop because they really wanted to solve the problems 😀

And this one also, ask his mom to give him 1 hour extra time 😀

Don’t worry kids we will do this again tomorrow insyaAllah! See you soon! ❤ ❤ ❤
