• Six times faster than C

  This is pretty much `assembly language the game`: https://tomorrowcorporation.com/humanresourcemachine It's not a useful architecture, but it teaches the thought process really well, and you end up discovering a lot of optimization naturally. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• My teacher wants me to show him if Factorio can be used to teach programming, I need help with ideas!

  Other options have been given in this thread and I'd agree that for this particular situation the Tomorrow Corporation's "Human Resource Machine" is probably the best match. It's a constrained environment in a game that scales up to introduce this and more. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Technology/Creative books and games for my daughter (7 years)

  Not sure if 7 is old enough, I made this card "game" with my daughter when she was 10: https://punkx.org/4917/ which is not really a game but more like a puzzle, you have 54 small programs for a 4 bit made up computer (Richard Buckland's computer) and you have to interpret them in your head or with pen and paper. It's quite interesting to play with her when I change few instructions on a card. Other interesting... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Which programming language for a kid of grade 1-6 is better?

  The game us actually called Human Resource Machine and it is excellent. I've beaten that one and its sequel. But some people might find it difficult and I would say somebody in the lower grades definitely would. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Good sources of math exercises for ~10-17 y/o?

  Could solve Project Euler problems in Lua - aka, the easiest programming language to learn https://projecteuler.net/ Alternatively, you could get a homeschool math textbook. They're written differently because the assumption is that the kid is going to have to teach themselves, and as such they are significantly more thorough and easy to understand. I highly recommend them. Don't get the kind that are "workbooks",... - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• Things you should do in your dev journey 🖥️👩‍💻

  Practice Regularly: Utilize coding challenge platforms such as LeetCode and HackerRank to practice coding regularly. Additionally, websites like Project Euler offer mathematical challenges that can sharpen your problem-solving skills. - Source: dev.to / 25 days ago

• Ask HN: Are there any websites for SQL puzzle games?

  A coworker used to solve Project Euler[1] problems using SQL while they waited for DB indexes to rebuild or tables to restore from backup in the middle of the night. [1] https://projecteuler.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• The Definitive Programming Roadmap: From Novice to Expert

  Coding Challenges: Platforms like Project Euler or CodeSignal offer a variety of problems that encourage logical thinking and algorithmic problem-solving. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• New to programming, starting with C++

  If you want some recommendations on how to learn it best, I really suggest jsut using it and googling how to do the things you dont know how to do as you work. Right now, the advent of code is happening and its one of the best ways to practice and learn: https://adventofcode.com/ Another thing you might want to try is Project Euler: https://projecteuler.net.
