Graphical Block Structured Programming: A Visual Programming Paradigm
Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: This paper discusses the concept and design of a graphical block-structured programming paradigm that presents a model for constructing computer programs using a set of graphical objects that resembles the existing lexical instructions in a C language. The design of the paradigm was motivated by the results from studies investigating the previous designs and the acquisition of existing visual programming languages. Studies showed that most people are having trouble expressing the structures that they cannot write or verbally describe due to their limited grasp of natural language. The aim of this proposed programming paradigm is to improve the user’s ability to create programs by making programming more accessible to some particular audience and improving the correctness and speed with which people perform programming tasks.
