Hi all,
I have been teaching how to program to non-engineers, mostly designers,
artists and a few musicians, and it all goes well until we hit the
arrays.
I've seen similar problems, and I usually find that physical world
examples help introduce the concept before we start talking about coding
syntax. Depending on the audience's characteristics, I've used
everything from a map of Manhattan to our inter-office mailboxes.
