I like being a creator; especially when creating video games and websites.
I always felt like the type of person who stays on the computer. I love learning how to code since it makes using the computer fun and a learning experience.
Coding is a really fun thing to do, and really allows me to be as creative as I want!
I love seeing the end result of my work and looking at all the challenges I’ve accomplished.
For me, coding is a way for me to calm down after I get mad at something. I like that it gives me something to focus on.
So much of the world is run by computers, and I want to know how to work those computers to do what I want.
What I like about programming is that people get to interact with it and it’s the future. There’s no limits in coding, you can make a robot jump or spin and twist just by typing it!
I like coding because it teaches me new ways to make things like games and websites! I also think it is super fun because I can share my projects with other people so they can see how awesome it is!
In the future, I want to be a game maker so this is pretty helpful!
Seeing my ideas and creation come to life and knowing that what you made is yours, it’s amazing!
I like to add the finishings details put on my games to make my code come to life, like adding pictures or music.
My dad says people do it as a job, and I have fun with it so I wanna be a pro.
I like how it’s basically a care free environment to where I can build stuff to my full extent.
You could make new things, old things, a robot- anything that requires electricity- I’m learning to make these things!
I like it because I can create games and websites and make them how ever I want. So they’re all unique!
My favorite thing about coding is being able to create something that someone else might use. It’s about leaving a legacy behind for someone else to explore what I have made.
I like how much help the instructors give us, and how much more knowledge I gain!
It’s fun and something my friends don’t know how to do. I love when people ask for help and I know the answer.
The power of being able to manipulate the computer to do what I tell it to, and feel powerful, I love it!
I like having the ability to write something and have it come to life. I really want to see how I use code in the future to make different technology and help people and advance society.
I like to create things, and when I add my own ideas it makes it even more fun.
I like coding because when I heard I could make my own video game, I wanted to create the best video game ever! I can also earn prizes for points and make some pretty cool games.
My favorite thing about Code Central how creative I can be, and how I can create anything I put my mind to.
My favorite part is that when you’re done, you can play your own game. When you do code you can learn stuff that you’d never learn before!
