Using the Processing program language (a “dialect” of Java), we will learn about the basic concepts of writing software and computation – variables, logical control structures (loops, conditionals), functions, and objects, by playing with and modifying a series of interesting and fun example programs based exploring graphics and interactivity.

From processing.org: “Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and interactions. It is used by students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists for learning, prototyping, and production. It is created to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context and to serve as a software sketchbook and professional production tool.”
