little REBOL tutorial for kids

 [1/3] from: nick1:musiclessonz at: 22-Mar-2008 10:30


Here's a little REBOL tutorial intended for kids: http://musiclessonz.com/rebol_for_kids.r http://musiclessonz.com/rebol_for_kids.exe It starts with some well known demo examples from the community, to grab attention, and then goes through some basics to develop a little ability and interest. It's just a primer, but the format has proven appealing to the kids I've shown it to so far...

Hmmm ... when I did a little class for kids I took a couple of days to get beyond forever [prin "fart "] Nick what does your tutorial do when it encounters a file with the same name in directory it is launched from?

Tom, the fart joke make me laugh. Then the file question gave me a queazy kind of feeling in my stomach :( I've replaced a make-dir/change-dir routine that had gotten eliminated somewhere along the way - hopefully before any problems! The executable should never cause any trouble, since a new temp directory is created for each run. Quoting Tom <Tom.Conlin-gmail.com>:
