Aplicaciones de software educativo y empresarial: desarrollo de una aplicación para el aprendizaje de programación estructurada en C.

Abstract

This Curricular Integration Project aims to design and implement a web application to facilitate learning structured programming (C/C++ language) through block programming. The application uses the React Flow library to create flowcharts, which form the basis of this project. The user will have access to the necessary blocks when required. The application also allows the user to obtain code in C/C++ language, simplifying the process and improving the way code is written to avoid common programming errors. The blocks designed for the project include: IN, DEFINE, FOR, OUT, IF, and OPERATION. These blocks are used to control inputs and outputs, such as sensors, actuators, and displays, as well as to control program execution, such as loops and conditional statements. These blocks are used to create complex programs and help beginners learn to program intuitively and simply. Chapter 1 studies the tools to be used in the application that is built using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern, React JS, React Flow, Bootstrap, Child Process, and G++. Visual Studio Code is used to connect the application to the computer processor. Chapter 2 carries out the acquisition of the requirements that the application needs to meet and how to develop the application, both in its operational part and in the user interface. Finally, in Chapter 3, it is analyzed whether the application meets the objectives and requirements proposed based on its use by a group of test users, and the results obtained are analyzed to obtain conclusions and recommendations about the developed project.
