Executing a programme:
Every mosaic card is two-sided. One side shows a
coding (or programming) pattern, which contains
information to follow in order to reproduce a
colourful mosaic.
The coding card shows letters, which correspond
with the rows, and numbers, which indicate how
many balls of that colour should be placed in each

What is a programme?
This game mode stimulates some of the strategies of
"computational thinking". In order for a computer to
function (that is, to do what we want it to do) it must
execute programmes written in a language that has
precise rules. Both the computer and the person who
writes the programme must know the rules of the
language, i.e. which symbols it uses and what those
symbols mean.
