Enhancing programming logic and algorithmic understandability for students visually using raptor

Abstract EN

This research paper helps students to visually understand and develop algorithms easily using Raptor.

Usually students find very difficult in dealing with the syntax rather than solving the problem.

Raptor is a visual programming environment, designed specifically to help students understand the algorithm and avoid syntactic baggage.

These raptor programs are created visually and can be executed by tracing it visually.

Raptor allows students to create a program with less syntax from any programming language.

We can demonstrate concepts like functions, if, and loop constructs.

Students will find it more easy and interesting using flowcharts to interpret their algorithms more successfully.

The results indicate that the efficiency of using raptor can be improved by indulging this into the student’s curriculum and teaching them programming and algorithm writing with raptors.
