Learn computer programming the easy and fun way. Basic Scratch is a series of scratch programming tutorials, based on the book called "Basic Scratch" available at the Amazon Kindle Store. Everyone can program by following these tutorials.

The Scratch programming language is based on block programming. Block programming uses graphical blocks to represent programming commands eliminating typing and syntax errors. Block programming is relatively easy even for young children. Scratch is a good way for people of all ages to enter the world of programming.
