"Despite using them every day, most software engineers know little about how programming languages are designed and implemented [...] A better understanding of how programming languages are built will make you a stronger software engineer and teach you concepts and data structures you'll use the rest of your coding days. You might even have fun. This book teaches you everything you need to know to implement a full-featured, efficient scripting language....

In this super fun book, Sylvia teaches you to understand Arduino microcontroller programming by inventing an adjustable strobe and two digital musical instruments you can play! Along the way, you'll learn a lot about electronics, coding, science, and engineering.

"The goal of the Engineering & Design Module is to teach kids to recognize challenges, turn them into opportunities, and identify scalable solutions to solve them. Topics in this module include puzzles, invention, construction, machines, architecture, curiosity. STEAM Academy offers an interdisciplinary approach that weaves together the science, technology, engineering, art, and math skills learned in the classroom and connects them to things kids...
