Python Classroom notes 04/Feb/2026

Programming

• Computers are obidient.
• Speaking with computers involves speaking at levels which it understands.
• From today we are going to consider computer as a kid.

Speaking with kid

• Kid knows additions and you are supposed to get multiplications done

problem        program
5 * 3    =>   5 + 5 + 5
      logic

• Computers are very good at repeating the same work

• Our whole journey of programming is
  we have a obidient kid who knows few things, and he/she is good at repeating the same stuff as many times without any hard feelings.
  Our job is to translate our problems into something which this kid understands

  Kid has a special feature where we can test our instructions step by step.

• Kid can remember (RAM-primary memory) and follow instructions but step by step (CPU).

Problem => multiplication

• problem: muliply any number by 2 and give the result
• kid:
  • Remember
  • execute (addition)
• Program

Remember 5 as number
perform number + number and remember as result
show result

• Research:
  • What is programming in simple english with any non cmputing terms
  • Where did the name came from. and how is it different from coding.
