Why were the houses in town higher than in the country?

In the days of early civilization, once men had learnt how to build simple houses for their families, they began to feel a need to have a number of different kinds of houses in one place. At first the difference was mainly in size - the chief or leader had a larger hut or tent than the rest of the people. Much later, when men began to build towns, there grew up a difference between town houses and country houses. The streets in towns were very narrow and there was not much place for building within the town walls, and therefore houses had to be built higher than they were in the country. A typical town house consisted of a shop opening on the street where the man did his work or sold his goods, with a kitchen behind and a bedroom above.

The power of programs

If you were going to build a bookcase, you'd follow a step-by-step plan. First, you'd decide exactly what sort of book-case you wanted: its length, width and number of shelves. Once your design was set, you'd gather your tools and supplies and get started. When you finished, you'd check your work carefully and make any needed changes.

Programming a computer - giv­ing it a set of instructions to follow-has a lot in common with building that bookcase. To write a prog ram, you begin by deciding exactly what task you want to accomplish. Then you work on developing and refining prog ram. You don't use carpentry tools, of course. Instead, you use a programming tod: the computer.

Do you want to play a computer game? Use a computer to write a story? Turn your computer into a piano or a drawing pad? You can do all

these. But..,

For a computer to do something - anything - it must have a set of

instructions. Without instructions the computer is as useless as a phono­graph without a record. You can buy instructions for the computer in the form of computer software, such as a game or a word-processing program, or you can create your own instructions.

Creating instructions for the computer is called writing a computer pro­gram, or programming. Writing even simple programs can help you to under­stand better how a computer and computer software work

Programming can also be a very exciting hobby. Many students go on to create complicated programs as a hobby. Some students even turn their

hobbies into jobs.

Whether or not you go on to develop a hobby or a career as a program­mer, you should enjoy being in charge of the computer as you learn about programming.
