+ | It's pretty easy and lots of fun to quickly start doing things with Processing. But as the complexity of what you want to do grows, it will be crucial for you to develop a solid understanding of programming concepts to let you write programs that match that complexity of intent. Our hope with this book is to give you that perspective right from the start. Another reason for you to be excited about taking a programming concepts dive into Processing is that it is but one of many tools available to visual artists and interaction designers that require programming. The more you know and approach Processing as a programming experience, the easier it will be for you to transfer your skills to other tools. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you are not a visual artist or interaction designer but are interested in learning programming in general, this book may also be for you. It will cover all the classic fundamental programming concepts using a tool that is rich in visual rather than text-based interaction. Some learners may find this a more enjoyable way to learn about programming. | ||
