Abstract:
Based on a present-day view of teaching programming, desirable features are
formulated for a language suitable for teaching introductory programming. On the examples of
programs solving several very simple problems, a comparative evaluation is done of the
languages Java and Ruby in this respect. The significance of visualization in programming
education is outlined, and a suitable solution for graphical visualization is pointed at.
