Hello World!

This "Hands" space has the purpose to lead you from hand motions to programming notions.

There is an Origami blog on the list to the right.

Here you can find a tutorial by Hongyi Wan on Origami Fractal Flower.

Using time lapse, Mr. Wan takes us through the steps in a different time scale, increasing our power.

The way mathematical abstractions are created, is through the motion of our hands. Since we are in pre-school, our elders take us through a fun series of games, to control our hands, what is called  motor coordination.

At the end, I want to take you to computer programming.

Here is a simple Hello World! program in Python.

Python 2.7.9 (default, Apr  2 2015, 15:33:21)
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> print('Hello World!')
