</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi folk.<br><br>I'm always on the lookout for small but challenging programming tasks for kids as they start out with SD. Here's one I made up as I noticed my sensor light turning on at home. Literally a lightbulb moment :-)<br>
<br>The functional requirements <i>seem</i> simple, but the algorithm challenged them. The kids spent two periods having fun working on it. <br><br>Task, and sample VB2010 Express solution (zipped) are attached - I haven't distributed a VB2010 project before, so Dog only knows if I packaged the right files.<br>
Google won't let me mail .zip files, so you need to rename .zipped as .zip :-[<br><br>Cheers<br><br>-- <br>Mark Kelly<br>Manager of ICT, Reporting, IT Learning Area<br>McKinnon Secondary College<br>McKinnon Rd McKinnon 3204, Victoria, Australia<br>
