General Notes
- It’s all right not to get through the whole lesson.
- This lesson is designed for people who have never programmed before, but any given class may include people with a wide range of prior experience. We have therefore included enough material to fill a full day if need be, but expect that many offerings will only get as far as the introduction to Pandas.
- Don’t tell people to Google things.
- One of the goals of this lesson is to help novices build a workable mental model of how programming works. Until they have that model, they will not know what to search for or how to recognize a helpful answer. Пропозиція пошукати відповідь в Google може створити враження, що ми вважаємо їх проблему тривіальною. (Однак, якщо учні раніше достатньо займались програмуванням, щоб подолати ці проблеми, підштовхування їх шукати рішення в Інтернеті може допомогти їм зміцнити своє розуміння.) It’s also worth quoting Trevor King’s comment about online search: “If you find anything, other folks were confused enough to bother with a blog or Stack Overflow post, so it’s probably not trivial.”
