An excellent method for introducing beginners to
computer programming is described by Richard E. Pattis
in his book Karel the Robot.
By initially limiting the beginner's language repertoire to
easily grasped imperative commands whose actions
are visually displayed, the Karel approach quickly
introduces students to such concepts as procedures
and the major control structures.
Although originally based on Pascal,
the Karel approach has been used successfully with several
different computer programming languages,
such as Modula-2 and
C++.
André Roberge (and contributors)
developed a Python version named
RUR.
These pages describe a variant of RUR
we call Reeborg the Robot.
