Class Description
Processing combines programming with art and 2D and 3D graphics. Try some examples. We will create fun programs like these.
Processing is a toolkit for making cool graphics and animations, and it works with Python and any language that runs on the Java environment.
Combining programming in a real language with cool graphics makes a fun way to learn.
