   Let's suppose you have to teach C to 7yo kids.

   Where do you start from?

   How do you setup their playground?

   (please, don't question the goal in this thread... let's focus on solutions)

     @Shamar I'd start with the memory.

     Memory is everything.

     Boxes that store things, each box has a number.
     You are training the computer to put things in those boxes and rearrange them. That's what a computer does.
