And what is it?

You probably are not particularly interested in what is hidden under the habrakat, but take a couple of minutes and I'm sure you will change your mind

What is Xmal?
Xmal is a project aimed at helping people develop algorithmic thinking in a playful way.

Why is this necessary?
Nowadays, more and more attention is paid to the mental development of man. More and more people want to become, for example, programmers. Most do not cope with this task due to laziness due to the lack of ability to choose the right method for solving the problem, and consequently, the resulting problems with writing software code.

Consider the problem: how much is 10 * 11 =?
110 immediately appeared in your head. Or not? Now think about how you got this answer.

• 11 fold 10;
• 10 times add up 11;
• Recalling the school, we assign to 11 the zero to the right and we get 110.
• Convert to binary

')
Or an example from the life of a young student programmer.
Write to the file the numbers entered by the user from the keyboard
Most students fall into a stupor mainly due to two problems:

1. Where to begin?
2. Ignorance of programming language

Where to begin? The question that our game should help solve:

1. Open file, if none exists, create
2. In the cycle, read the values ​​entered by the user from the keyboard
3. Is it a digit?
4. If yes, write to file
5. Else - ignore
6. Close file

For many, in the early stages, such a task is difficult. But everything is simple.

How many people, so many methods of solving problems. But in most cases it is required to solve the problem as simply as possible.

Therefore, the answer to the question “Why is this necessary?” Will be: to help you learn how to quickly and correctly create problem-solving algorithms.

PS: If you like the idea, our team will be happy to share the details of the project and the means chosen for its implementation.
PPS: Ask questions, do not hesitate, we do not bite :)
