Wolfram Programming Lab - is another way to become a programmer

Company Wolfram has released a universal software package Wolfram Programming Lab for the development of Computational thinking and learning programming using corporate language Wolfram Language. Now even beginners can write serious programs for solving real scientific or social problems.

Company Stephen Wolfram (Stephen Wolfram), known for its products for the mathematical modeling Mathematica, has announced a new service that will be of interest to all those who in any way associated with any calculations. Wolfram Programming Lab It allows to learn programming using the company's corporate language Wolfram Language.

Wolfram Programming Lab is an interactive cloud-based system that works in the browser and on the Mac, Windows and Linux. In fact, this training package for working with language.

The user is prompted to view a video about the project and the language, and then see the start screen "Try it yourself» (Try It Yourself) master the basic principles on a few simple but interesting calculations.

You can then select a systematic training based on the book by Stephen Wolfram "An elementary introduction to Wolfram Language language", Or go their own way, to start your own research.

In the first case, you will need to read the book in Wolfram Programming Lab, to develop the examples and assignments or to use their own methods of computing.

The second way is more productive. You choose one of the finished studies (Explorations), and the service describes the task and offers her broken into separate parts solution. Inline comments allow to deal with every line and learn the material.

To calculate the need to press Shift + Enter, or the left orange arrow-button. The code is executed, and you can see what each item, and slightly improve the code and solve their own problem, if necessary. To get detailed help about what is happening, just click "View details» (Show Details).

Once you cope with the puzzles, the program will offer «Go ahead» (Go Further), and read the following studies. Any results convenient to share on social networks or websites: creating a web page with contents realized by pressing the right button orange.

Wolfram Programming Lab is the next step in the development of Wolfram language after Wolfram | Alpha. The system is primarily designed for self-study. However, a huge number of problems have already been implemented in the form of finished code allows you to use it for presentations, lectures and small studies.
