商品描述

Programming permeates almost all aspects of our lives. This includes being active on social media, shopping online, and participating in virtual courses. It also includes driving a car and using many devices. This book will teach you the basics of programming using the Processing programming language and provide practice with logical, algorithmic thinking. It can provide insight into what is involved in producing the technical infrastructure of our world. While reading this book, you can build programs based on your own ideas, using images you create or acquire and making connections to activities you enjoy.

The chapters in the book will demonstrate the process of programming, starting with formulating an idea, planning, building on past projects, and refining the work, similar to writing an essay or composing a song. This approach will guide you to make use of logic and mathematics to produce beautiful effects. The text contains an Appendix with an introduction to p5.js, a way to produce JavaScript programs with Processing functionality for drawing, images, and interactions to publish on the Web.

 

The term for program in Processing is sketch. The Processing language has been constructed by visual artists using the Java programming language as a base. However, the sketches featured in this book and typical in Processing are far more than static drawings; they incorporate interaction, animation, video, audio, and accessing files on the local computer and on the Web. Technical features are introduced and explained in the context of complete examples: games (Snake, Hangman, jigsaw, slingshot), making a collage of family images and video clips, preparing directions for folding an origami model, rotating objects in 3D, and others.

Programming is a fun, creative, expressive pursuit. It does require attention to details and can be frustrating. Still, there is very little that compares to the satisfaction of building a program out of nothing and making it work (or taking an existing program and fixing a problem, or adding a feature and making it better). Programming 101 is your gateway to making this happen.

What You'll Learn

  • Gain basic programming skills
  • Build fun and creative programs
  • Use files for making a holiday card or a sequence of instructions
  • Combine videos, images, and graphics in a Processing sketch
  • Connections to other programming languages, most especially Java and JavaScript

Who This Book Is For

Anyone who has been thinking about trying programming, or has tried, but needs assistance. Anyone who wants to use their own creativity and artistic talents. Anyone who wants to know what is involved in the technology that is present in our lives. Anyone who wants to know what is involved in the technology that is present in our lives.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

程式設計滲透了我們生活的幾乎所有方面。這包括在社交媒體上活躍、網上購物和參加虛擬課程。它還包括開車和使用許多設備。本書將教你使用Processing編程語言的基礎知識，並提供邏輯和算法思維的練習。它可以讓你了解到製作我們世界技術基礎設施所涉及的內容。在閱讀本書的同時，你可以根據自己的想法建立程序，使用你創建或獲得的圖像，並將其與你喜歡的活動相連接。

本書的章節將演示編程的過程，從構思一個想法，計劃，建立在過去的項目基礎上，並完善工作，類似於寫一篇文章或創作一首歌曲。這種方法將引導你利用邏輯和數學來產生美麗的效果。本文附有附錄，介紹了p5.js，一種使用Processing功能繪製、圖像和互動的JavaScript程序，可用於在網絡上發布。

在Processing中，「程序」的術語是「草圖」。Processing語言是由視覺藝術家使用Java編程語言作為基礎構建的。然而，本書中展示的草圖和Processing中的典型草圖遠不僅僅是靜態圖畫；它們還包含互動、動畫、視頻、音頻以及訪問本地計算機和網絡上的文件。技術特性在完整的示例（遊戲（貪吃蛇、猜字遊戲、拼圖、彈弓）、製作家庭圖像和視頻剪輯的拼貼畫、準備摺紙模型的指引、在3D中旋轉物體等）的上下文中介紹和解釋。

編程是一種有趣、富有創造力和表達力的追求。它需要對細節的關注，有時可能令人沮喪。然而，很少有什麼能比從無中創建一個程序並使其運作（或修復現有程序的問題，或添加功能並使其更好）的滿足感更令人滿意。《Programming 101》是你實現這一目標的入門指南。

你將學到什麼：
- 獲得基本的編程技能
- 建立有趣和富有創意的程序
- 使用文件製作節日賀卡或一系列指令
- 在Processing草圖中結合視頻、圖像和圖形
- 與其他編程語言（尤其是Java和JavaScript）建立聯繫

本書適合對嘗試編程感興趣或需要幫助的任何人。它適合那些想要發揮自己的創造力和藝術才能的人。它適合想要了解我們生活中存在的技術內容的人。
