December 4-10 is Computer Science Education Week!
Computer Science Education Week coincides with the birthdays of two computer science pioneers. A pioneer is a person who is one of the first to enter a field of study or explore a new area of thought.
Who were these two computer science pioneers?
1. Ada Lovelace, born in England on December 10, 1815, is considered the world's first computer programmer.
 |
2. Grace Hopper, whose birthday is December 9, 1906, was an American computer programmer and Navy rear admiral. She contributed to the development of the COBOL language and is credited with popularizing the term "computer bug" in the programming community.
Grace Hopper said, "To me programming is more than an important practical art. It is also a gigantic undertaking in the foundations of knowledge."

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is a computer language. One important trait when writing any type of code is to persevere, or never give up. Sometimes you try an algorithm, or list of steps used to solve a problem, and it fails. Don't give up. Instead, adjust your algorithm. Try again! This strategy is called trial and error.
2. To make text bold, place this HTML code around the text:
3. To make a hyperlink, it gets a little tricky.

Here is a video demonstrating how easy it is to a create a hyperlink if you have the code set up in a Word doc.
If you like to add fun shapes...here are those codes!
Great Tip!
I leave a document on my desktop called HTML Code. All the code I regularly use is there. The hyperlink code is very tricky for me to remember. So, I leave several blank code links in the HTML Code document like this:
All I have to do is copy/paste the URL where it goes and change the word link into what I want the link to be. I then copy the customized code into my comment. It really saves time for people like me who cannot remember the hyperlink code!

ReplyDeleteOne of the things about working online and learning, even at the age which I am (which is quite old) is that I can learn new things, despite blogging for quite some time I haven't really used the HTML code before - and there were lots of really good tips to show that, so thank you for the post and thank Mrs Yollis for helping me learn some new things to do.
