What is teachcode?

A tool to develop and improve a student’s programming skills by introducing the earliest lessons of coding.

Users are required to solve 30 tasks that take them through the basic constructs of the programming language of their choice. The tasks are designed in such a way that the complexity increases as users progress through the tasks. Users can't move forward until the current task is completed (since the progress is determined by a unique key that is generated upon successful completion). Previously submitted tasks can be viewed as desired by the user but can't be worked on again.

  • teachcode expects you to have a GitHub account. Make sure that you create one if that's not the case.
  • Navigate to the directory of your choice and type in teachcode init.
  • Follow the instructions as prompted.
  • Now type in cd teachcode-solutions.
  • Grab the initial key and type in teachcode fetchtask <key>.
  • Hurray 🎉 you've got your first task.
  • Now you can find a config.json and task1.py (language of choice) file within the teachcode-solutions directory.
  • Open up your favourite editor and code up the solution.
  • Now type in teachcode submit.
  • Enter your Git credentials when prompted.
  • If the current solution satisfies all test cases, you'll get the key to proceed with.
  • Grab the key and type in teachcode fetchtask <key>.
