Hi,
So what are you having trouble with. It seems that you have given a situation (maybe an assignment question). We can help you if you have a certain problem, but we will not do the task for you.

Are you having trouble getting input from the user, or moving the objects?

Can anyone help me with this scenario. I am completely lost.

o Road to Hana: Create a world with a convertible Corvette (Vehicles) and a person of your choice (People) that will determine the drive time to Hana. The user is asked the number of miles between the current location and Hana, as well as the speed limit for the road to get there. Set up variables for both of the entered values. Create a third variable to hold the calculated hours for the trip. The formula for hours is as follows: miles divided by the speed limit. At this point, the person should approach the camera, and the Corvette should come into view, stopping next to the person. The person should then look at the Corvette, turn to the camera, and say a message in bubble text that includes the time in hours it will take to reach Hana. The car should then drive away, and the person should walk away in the opposite direction.

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm that uses “objects” and their interactions to design applications and computer programs. Programming techniques may include features such as encapsulation, modularity, polymorphism, and inheritance. It was not commonly used in mainstream software application development until the early 1990s. Many modern programming languages now support OOP.

I’m a professional programmer and although I haven’t seen this program (yet!) I’m sure I will support it for learning logic and other basic programming concepts.
Syntax changes with languages, and it isn’t what’s important when you’re just starting off. You can/will pick up the syntax in time; the fundamental concepts are more important to begin with.
Well done Alice!

Off memory, I think there was a key combination you could do. For some reason, Control+c is coming to my head, but I doubt that.

I has an assignment on Alice in Grade 12. We made a dancing game. Use the up and down arrows or wasd for 2 player. It is really cool. If anyone wants to look at it, ill try upload it for you to play.

It is really easy to learn its pretty much drag and drop. Although it doesn’t teach you the syntax, it teaches students the concept on programming and make you think logically on how you want something to be done. You can turn syntax on that can help you learn the syntax a bit more.

So if you want to learn the concept (thinking and logic) behind programing, you should first use Alice.

If your program becomes really large, it may slow down your computer too.

Hi boomroasted – thanks for your comment. You bring up a good point. On a similar note, infinite loops can be pretty disastrous and difficult to escape from in many programming languages, not just in Alic – so I’m not sure I’d really consider it a bug, but something to try to avoid (and the school really should provide students with a method to kill programs or processes).

im in beginning computer science in highschool and we used this program at the beginning of the year. it’s decent, but has a few bad bugs. for instance, if you ask the user for something such as a number and accidentally put it in a forever loop, once you run the program there is no way to stop it without quitting it through the task manager. unfortunately, task manager is blocked at my school anyone who encountered this bug had to restart their computer and lose the data they hadn’t saved.
