Getting to the "heart of a program" quickly.

  1. Identify the blocks of code. And sub-blocks of code.
  2. Provide a 1-sentence description of each block.
    • What is the essence of each block?
    • Don't get bogged down in details.
    • Where is the "heart" of the sketch?
  3. Identify the output.
    • Is this drawing something?
    • Making sounds?
    • Printing out text?
  4. Identify what's changing.
    • What are the variables?
    • Where are they declared?
    • Where are they initialized?
    • Where are they updated?
    • Where are they used?
    • What variables are dependent on other variables?
  5. What can I change to immediately start playing with this sketch?

GOAL: 1 sentence description that describes the sketch in the simplest, most specific way possible.
