Coles Programming Using LED Cubes: A Practical Introduction to Block-Based Coding, Web Technologies, and Hardware at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The book guides readers through building a small 4×4×4 LED cube and creating a block-based interface to control it. Using this focused project, it demonstrates key computing concepts, including web design, web servers, databases, communications, and hardware integration, while producing a polished and engaging physical artefact. The book does not attempt to be a comprehensive reference. Instead, it concentrates on practical understanding, showing how different technologies fit together in a complete system and encouraging readers to extend their learning beyond the project itself. The book is well suited to structured learning environments such as classrooms, technology clubs, and hackspaces, while also offering sufficient depth to interest more experienced makers.
What You'll Learn
Learn different languages and how they interact
How functional entities such as databases and web servers can be combined
How simple packages can be incorporated - such as blockly and nodejs.
Who This Book Is For
This is a beginner based text aimed at students or their teachers. They need to know the basics of programming and most pupils will have used a block based language - such as Scratch - which should be sufficient.
