Ah, so it is an exercise in programming Python, that is very

It's intended just as a "microworld" for programming exercises for

Hi Toby-
What are you trying to teach with CarCode? I'm wondering how it

Carcode, a project aimed at helping beginners learn to program by
controlling an animated robot car, has just been released in alpha:

This release is entirely the work of Carlos Daniel Ruvalcaba

this
