How to correctly structure your coding cards
There are two ways that you can layout the coding cards. The easiest way is to lay them out one after the
other left to right, horizontally. The benefit of this method is, that it doesn't use much space up but longer
programs become difficult to understand. This might be easy for you as you get started. A programmer
would normally code in a vertical indented method as shown below.
Horizontal Layout
The best way to layout coding cards is in a vertical fashion with grouped elements indented. This is much
easier for anyone else to be able to read and understand the code and once the student progresses into
text-based coding this then becomes natural for them. It does take up a lot of desk space and helps with
the read ability of the code.
Vertical Layout - recommended
