for those who have little or no knowledge of programming. Concepts of programming introduced
4 Levels: Beginners, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert.
From scratch depending on the child's area of interest (Hardware or Software) we move to different programming languages.
if (Hardware){
//Introduction to programming using C programming Language
cProgramming();
//After a firm grasp of C
//Programming microcontrollers with c
//Making actual working projects
embeddedProgrammingWithC();
}
elif (software):
#Introduction to programming using python programming Language :)
pythonLanguage()
#After a firm grasp, Start on
#Software projects with real life application (automation, H/W interfacing or DATA)
