About
LBC is a tool designed in the aid of teaching fundamentals in computer programming. Variables, Loops and Conditionals are the fundamentals.
It models a simple von Neumann architecture computer in a reduced sudo assembly language represented by icons in a visual way.
There are icons for Instructions, icons for variables and icons for locations which are used as mnemonic labels for building code..
Once a Visual structure is built, it can be ran to execute the program line by line.
Once a user has mastered LBC they can move on to Little Man Computer.
