Our primary languages are [[Python]] and [[PHP]]. As we learn about [[Web Science]], PHP & Javascript are logical choices. As we learn about [[Modeling and Simulation]], Python is a good match.

This wiki supports learning of high school computing.[edit]

This wiki supports learning of IB Computer Science Standard Level and Higher Level (years 1 and 2) including options for web science and modeling and simulation. Additionally, this wiki supports learning for two computing design courses, Designing solutions through programming (aka introduction to programming) and Solving complex problems through programming (aka advanced programming). Both courses are MYP design courses.

A really good place to start is here: What is computer science.
