Invitation to Ezhil: A Tamil Programming Language for Early Computer-Science Education

نویسنده

چکیده

Ezhil is a Tamil programming language with support for imperative programming, with mixed use of Tamil and English identifiers and function-names. Ezhil programing system is targeted toward the K-12 (junior high-school) level Tamil speaking students, as an early introduction to thinking like a computer-scientist. We believe this 'numeracy' knowledge is easily transferred over from a native language (Tamil) to the pervasive English language programming systems, in Java, dotNet, Ruby or Python. Ezhil is an effort to improve access to computing in the 21 st Century.

Modeling and Evaluation of Stochastic Discrete-Event Systems with RayLang Formalism

In recent years, formal methods have been used as an important tool for performance evaluation and verification of a wide range of systems. In the view points of engineers and practitioners, however, there are still some major difficulties in using formal methods. In this paper, we introduce a new formal modeling language to fill the gaps between object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) us...

Using Actors and the SALSA Programming Language for Introducing Concurrency to Computer Science II Students

This paper presents an evaluation of using the SALSA programming language in a two week module to introduce concurrent and distributed programming concepts to computer science II students at the University of North Dakota. The computer science II course was taught using Java, which allowed students to easily use SALSA for concurrent programming as it has a similar syntax and allows the use of J...
