When you don't have to deal with syntax and can concentrate on nothing but logical components it becomes much easier to understand.
- rbsn 14y agoScratch is a great! I do worry that people would then begin to learn a language and be frustrated by it's syntax. I don't know?
- rartichoke 14y agoYou have to deal with the syntax of a language regardless. It's a lot easier to deal with that once you've learned how to program. This is why more experienced developers have an easier time picking up a new language. They already know what purpose an if statement has or how to combine a few conditions and a loop to do xyz. These are things much easier learned in an environment that scratch provides you.
