Hi, Peter Hinrichsen was the original author of tiOPF (Object Persistence Framework). He is a very skilled software engineer with excellent programming principals. Recently he started moving away from commercial projects and started tutoring kids programming.
I thought posting some information here might be useful to newcomers of Lazarus and Object Pascal. Maybe this could even be added to the tutorials section of the Lazarus wiki. Here is what he had to say. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Teaching kids programming with Free Pascal Date: Wed, 04 Sep 2013 02:52:30 From: peter hinrichsen Newsgroups: tiopf.development Nothing to do with the tiOPF - except that I know many of you and was introduced to FPC by Graeme. These days I'm spending less time working on corporate projects, and more time teaching kids programming with Lego Mindstorms, Scratch and Free Pascal. I am slowly putting my lessons on-line, then testing them in the classroom. The first suite to be completed is "Game Programming with Pascal - Pong" http://www.clubengineer.org/elearning-pascal/pascal-pong-game The presentation is very rough - but it was my first attempt and I want to test the concept on some kids before putting too much effort into the project. These talk-throughs target Year 9 or older. Regards, Peter H.
