You don't need the "Code runner" to code. The Web IDE is enough for that. With the "Code runner", which is a PWA, you can save programs locally and run them offline.

This is because numbers are automatically converted to strings. This makes many things easier.

Because it is not so obvious - the code can be modified in the web page.

Thank you for the offer. I will accept it right away. For example, the tutorial "Learn to program" is already localized in German. You can easily add other languages. https://easylang.online/ide/tut_learn188.j

Pascal is/was a really decent programming language - just a bit too wordy for my taste.

Hi Gary! Thanks for your feedback and the really good suggestions. Multiple statements in one line are possible since today - just separate commands with a semicolon. Vertical lines to visually connect blocks would be cool, but now I have

I have made an easy programming language, which is not BASIC, but has some similarities with the old home computer BASIC variants. Variables don't have to be declared, you can draw on the screen with simple commands, you don't hav

Thank you. No, that's not me. You can see that this is not so unique, what I have done there. These calculations look very complicated at first sight, but they are not. You can actually program this step by step with a few basics of pr

Great. If you need any support, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks. I'm afraid that won't work with EasyLang. The language is kept very simple to make it easier for beginners and so that it loads quickly and so that the code can be parsed quickly in the IDE. And unfortunately it is not pos

I wasn't the first to discover this, although I once thought I was. About 1990, the Internet was not yet generally available. I was interested in Poker and Blackjack. Not in Roulette, it was clear that you always lose there. But in Bla

Thanks for your kind words. Especially when you have several variables, speaking names are of course useful. But I think that to a loop variable an "i" fits better than a - I don't know what ... For beginners, the one letter

Thanks. I am a teacher at a technical high school for computer science. We use this course for "tasters" (about 13 year old students choosing a high school). The students are interested and quickly get along with the environment
