ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 6 April 2019

Saturday’s Coding Squad 🙂

Capt. Faris is given a project to detect hoax and real news

plus investigating the neural nets architecture being used by our machine learning platform

The codes

Hafiz’s Plant vs Zombie Game is getting better and better 😉

we need to add lots codes to add more features to the game

Now the game has the randomly generated points (the yellow dots)

it also now has flowers that can shoot peas 🙂

Hafiz has to repeat the process for lots of sprites

and then define scoring and rules of the game. Lots of hard work but fun 🙂

Sulaiman is going to choose his own project today 🙂

We borrowed Aidia’s book to find a suitable project for Sul 🙂

After a while, Sul finally chose this one 🙂

The result 🙂

and then Sul started to create running text structure like Capt. Awa was doing earlier

Syadad started creating games today 🙂

The first sprite

Object movement test

The other sprite to be eaten by the first sprite

room setup

Yayyy, Syadad’s first game 🙂

more object arrangements and background

We will add scoring in the next class 😉

Aidia is improving her sophisticated locker system design 😉

Aidia added more structures to her world

She brought some books for references

So whatever Aidia created in her world is pure her creativity; she combined lots of ideas into unique structures

Capt. Awa asked for a challenge and so the challenge was creating a running text structure

No one has ever created this before because of it’s tricky nature. By using piston the furthest shift is 7 blocks

But Awa wouldn’t be a Captain if he wasn’t qualified 🙂 He brilliantly overcome the limitation by making it circular 🙂

The structure. Unbelievable. Impressive. Outstanding. 🙂

Awa tried several structures before finally found the correct one

Minecraft can be used to learn many things including logic, problem solving, creativity, including mechanical structures and electronics logics 😉

Experimenting with the machine

adding shield to make it waterproof 😀

Andra is still going through the intro to coding 🙂

Today he learned about function through pattern

And then moved on to more challenges. Next week Andra will learn visual coding with actual coding scripts 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 30 Mar 2019

Coding crowd this Saturday 😉

Hafiz is working on Plant vs Zombie Game. It is quite difficult and takes more time to develop than the previous ones

Preparing the sprites

the assets

each sprite is carefully designed 🙂

the background

Testing plant placing

The objects are now placed neatly in the room 😉

More objects added 🙂 Nice! Next is to add scoring and spawning the zombie randomly 🙂

Sam’s work is getting harder and harder to do since the target is to release this app to PlayStore

We need to think how to manage the screens and the size of the app

We are discussing the screen flow and the best UI/UX design especially to show the user the progress of memorizing the Juz’Amma

we just realized that Sam’s app has too many screens and that makes the app size grows. The more the screens, the harder it is to manage

Capt. Faris had his own app developed with Android Studio, and he shared his architecture to us

it is time to throw in database 😉 and the trick is to create limited screen, and reload the view from the database

so Sam has to learn about accessing TinyDB 😀

It leaves him like this LOL

Fadhlan, stop eating the candy and start to work! 😀

We have to work on this: testing the right and left motor plus the controller, and make it navigates

Working hardddd there you go 😀

Capt. Awa helped us testing the robot *and ran away when the robot was activated because it refuse to avoid obstacles LOL but at least we know that button, LED, buzzer, wheels, are working and we just need to check the ultrasonic before adding compass and bluetooth module 😀

Capt. Faris and his research 😀 He was given a challenge to learn how to prevent shoplifting with camera object detection

Capt. Awa, brought new toys!

The new stuffs have the same size as a coin!

wowww, modules for TinyDuino

But we still couldn’t get these little mates to work :(( We suspected the USB-UART driver or probably the port

So Capt. Awa explored another thing: basic electronics simulation

and then helping us with the robot

the robot was going in circles so Capt. Awa helped us switching the polarity 🙂

Testing is done for today (too many things being hit by the robot LOL)

Badi’s website is ready to be uploaded to public 🙂 Today Badi will buy domain and hosting and upload it

We’re searching for the best option, and after we got one, Pavilion19 will have a website 🙂

Aidia is so excited about her Minecraft Project today 🙂

She brought lots of books for references 🙂

Aidia does both design and mechanical structures in Minecraft

Look at this: she created a locker system below a beautiful building she designed 😉 How nice!!!

Inside the locker corridor 🙂 Next week we’re going to add button to get a specific locker sent to a specific person 😉

Al is going to make another animation, yaaay 🙂

He’s getting better 🙂

Al finds references on the internet to get more ideas

And he created animation for educational purposes like this one 🙂

We have a newcomer: welcome Andra 🙂

Like the others, Andra had to go through the intro to programming

One challenge down

Now another one, and Andra can do it very quickly with lots of excitement 🙂

Yogi came with the same problem from the last class: displaying a score that follows the object 🙂

This one worked for Game Maker Studio 2 but not with version 1 so we tried so many ways and still couldn’t figure it out. Don’t worry Yogi we’ll work it out

Syadad is now ready for a code combat 😉

Syadad is very excited with this challenge, especially because now he has a friend: Andra 🙂

Next week Syadad will be ready for creating games yaay!!!

Until then! 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 9 Feb 2019

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Squad 😉

Hafiz’s project for today is to continue the Google Jumping Dinosaurs 🙂

It’s working but needs plenty of improvement

So Hafiz was told to do some research and implement Game Maker Language in line of codes 🙂

Badi had finished the BreakOut Game

It now has score and lives

And the next project is to create a multiplayer Pong Game 🙂

It also shows the score of both players 🙂 We just need those bricks in the middle of the room 😉

Sam has been working really hard for his Memorizing Qur’an App 🙂

Sam has to implement lots of blocks to create list of the verses 🙂

Fadhlan is scheduled to do several tasks today

First is to test all ultrasonic sensors

ok all three are working well

The details

Next is to test the compass and it is still not working

We even tried with 3 different board. Going to figure this out and next week we will start to make the robot navigate with 3 ultrasonic sensors

Sulaiman can choose any project from the list given 🙂

He had created a Miner Machine at home

`

the machine will automatically generate TNT and drop it to the ground to open a hole

the RedStone wiring

The next project is to create a Sorting Machine 😉

Sorter Machine working nicely 🙂

The circuits 😉

Djalu is working on some machine learning today, continuing the last program from the last class

Djalu wants to create a Python code that can answer a question typed with the same language (English or German for example)

Faris taught Djalu how to use IBM Cloud and machine learning platform to do this

train the code to recognize certain texts based on the category

Testing the code and works 😉

Capt. Faris has to do some Machine Learning platform running on IBM Cloud today

He has to test the platform and how to sign up and all 😀

Scratch code to recognize safe and bad words

Examining the platform

Making some codes

Signing up to IBM Cloud and make sure we can tinker with Machine Learning tools there without being charged 😀

Koosha and lots of things to do as usual 🙂

The toolbox

soldering work

and ended up with this project 🙂 TFT LCD

It is working and that means next class Koosha can help Fadhlan with displaying robot mapping on this display 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp End 2018 – Minecraft Modding – Day #3

The last day 😉 Today the kids learned to create more complicated codes to make minigames in Minecraft 😉

Badi is so ready to type in the codes 😉

this is a JavaScript code that will count how many blocks have been broken

Shafa is so happy knowing that today we will do multiplayer 😉

Today we have Capt. Faris on duty: helping us porting the code from CanaryMod to Spigot 😉

the SnowBall code in JavaScript 😉

Ajez is also ready for upgrading the skill today 😉

Yaaay, Fadhlan is also very happy about playing together in the same server 😀

testing the placing and breaking blocks counter

 

Lunchtime 😉

Final stage: Capt. Faris deploying the scoreboard and snowball game into the server

fine tuning

yep it works now!

We’re playing in the same world in Minecraft 😀 The code will divide us into teams and prints the scoreboard 🙂

The kids with their certificates! Hope you all enjoy the class and learn a lot 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp End 2018 – Minecraft Modding – Day #2

Day 3! 😉 More coding and more structures being created 😉

Shafa continues writing more codes and gets more awesome structures!

Shafa combines building with dancefloor 😉

Shafa tried lots of interesting things, combining building etc 😉

we tried to make this zebra stacked blocks 😀 *by combining stacking code with chess code 😀

the code

Badi finished all the codes and has tried everything 🙂 Time for challenges 😉

Badi destroys all the work with TNT 😀 He covers the screen worrying that this will be sent to her mother 😀 😀 😀

Badi tries reinstalling and installing different server (higher version)

we created rainbow pyramid, finally 😀

and pyramid on top of dancefloor (Badi said this is a life-hack way :D)

Fadhlan starts to explore structures coded in JavaScript 😉

Fadhlan’s first JavaScript code in Minecraft: stacking blocks

and he stacks 100 blocks and more (he crashed the server many times :D)

Ajez starts exploring all codes and see how they work 😉

Ajez’s attempts of creating rainbow pyramid 😀 😀 😀

Teamwork 😉

peer-learning, peer-coding 😉

Many progress and lots of codes have been made today 🙂 We’re going to make mini games tomorrow 😉

 

 

 

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp End 2018 – Minecraft Modding – Day #1

Today we learn how to install Bukkit, Spigot Server and Scriptcraft so we can code with JavaScript in Minecraft 😉

Shafa

intro to programming and Minecraft 😉

done 🙂

And then Shafa starts to follow the tutorial about basic of JavaScript

Choosing the blocks to be used

Shafa created some structures

Shafa starts typing in code 😉

the result of Shafa’s first code: stacking up blocks 😉

Next code: triangle

the result 😉

Badi

Badi learns basic commands in JavaScript

The structures Badi created 😉

Badi experimenting with shapes, structures, and number of iterations (the server crashed many m any times 😀 😀 😀 )

Badi’s exploration continues 😀

Fadhlan

Fadhlan goes through intro to programming and Minecraft 🙂

Fadhlan finished the intro too 🙂

Getting ready to code in Minecraft 🙂
