Do you find programming foreign and intimidating?  It doesn't have to be. In this class I will show you from the ground up why programming works the way it does, give you a sense of how to start writing programs.  After the class you will understand what it means to think algorithmically (and what algorithmically means!)

To give you a taste of programming and get you writing code, we will do a few simple exercises in the Processing program language, which is designed for creating computer art.

In addition to the programming exercise, I will also give an overview for how to learn to program, and what are good resources to look into.  I will also answer questions about specific project you'd like to get started on if you have any.

Prerequisites
Bring a laptop, and install Processing from http://processing.org/
