Joking aside, today we will look at one of the most powerful design patterns when it comes to working on trees – a data structure that is as important to computer science as real trees are to human life.

WordLib Update Released

by Curry Kenworthy on October 2, 2018 No comments

WordLib imports MS Word and Open Office documents right into your LiveCode fields. This is all done natively without relying on any other software, API, or interface to do the job. Nor is it based on someone else’s code. Not even Microsoft’s. That’s actually a big deal; as a pure LiveCode script solution, independent and original, built from the ground up, WordLib can target MS Word and LiveCode like nobody else. You don’t even need a word processor or DLL installed to use it; that’s the whole point. You just need LiveCode, WordLib, a document, and a field. Any platform. One line of code. You’re done.

KidCode is a new app initiative which aims to teach just that. It uses LiveCode to simultaneously teach coding and English, and will shortly be launched in kindergartens in China. It is targeted at children from as young as 2 or 3 years old. The app is a collaboration between HHOTT and So-Easy International.
