In this challenge we will use Python Turtle to draw the track of a roller coaster. We have created three procedures for you to use when drawing the track. Each procedure takes two parameters as follows: straightLine(distance, speed): To draw…
A triangular number correspond to the number of dots that would appear in an equilateral triangle when using a basic triangular pattern to build the triangule. The triangular numbers sequence contains all the triangular numbers in order. The first 10…

Learning Objectives In this challenge we are learning how to draw and format a table on a web page using a range of HTML tags and CSS properties. HTML Tables First you may want to read a bit more about…
In this blog post we will work on the classic game of Minesweeper. Minesweeper is a single-player puzzle video game. The objective of the game is to clear a rectangular board containing hidden “mines” or bombs without detonating any of…
In our previous blog posts we have looked at a few logic gates circuits used inside a CPU to perform binary additions (Half adders and full adders) and to retain a bit of information using a D-Type flip-flop circuit (Data…
In this challenge we will use Python code to create a text-based (ASCII) animation to be used as a final countdown before the new year! Our countdown timer will be based on a for loop to count down from 5…
In this challenge we will create a computer program using LMC (Little Man Computer) that takes two inputs and outputs the larger (max) of the two inputs. By completing this challenge we will investigate the use of the branching instructions…
In this challenge we will create a computer program using LMC (Little Man Computer) that takes a number as an input (e.g. 5) and outputs a countdown from this value. (e.g: 5.4.3.2.1.0). By completing this challenge we will investigate the…
By completing this set of 12 mini challenges you will write programs using Little Man Computer using all the instructions of the LMC instruction set (See below). You will start with basic Input / Process / Output challenges based on…
