## What is Little Boy Computer?

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.

How to use:
On the main screen touch one of the twelve buttons. The code associated with this button will be opened in the Editor View.
Select the line of code you’d like to edit, on the lefthand side.

Select an icon you’d like to replace the previous icon with.
Select a new line and follow the last two steps until you have achieved the desired code.
