This has been written by Autodesk Tinkercad as a resource to support the ‘Hour of Code™’. The Hour of Code is a nationwide initiative by Computer Science Education Week [csedweek.org] and Code.org [code.org] to introduce millions of students to one hour of computer science and computer programming. The 2018 Computer Science Education Week will be December 3-9, but you can host an Hour of Code all year-round.
