Getting started with programming

This book is intended for anyone who wants to study the principles of writing
code. The important thing is to think well before programming. After a brief
history of the development of calculators and computers, you will learn how to
design algorithms using everyday examples, such as a recipe of a cheese
soufflé, a bubble sort, and a sequential and dichotomous method to sort out
numbers in a list. You will discover how to program with Excel VBA and
JavaScript adapted to Google Sheets. The objective of this manual is to help
you understand how to automate repetitive tasks, while discovering the world
of variables, loops, conditions, functions and procedures. Finally, because
Internet pages are part of our daily lives, HTML and CSS will also be
introduced.
