@goldstift where is that still done? Which language do you prefer for that purpose?

@tobnee unfortunately most of the schools start with Pascal instead of a syntax agnostic graphic tool to teach basic concepts

@goldstift @tobnee I don't necessarily think Pascal is a bad choice. Of course a possible reason is that it's my first language.

@stilkov @tobnee my point is that any language which steals time to learn syntax instead of concepts is bad for beginners!
