Published Programmes for Remixing
Hacking can mean "adding code to an existing program", or "changing code in an existing program". I am providing the working code, and you are creating your own copy and changing the code to create something new.
1. Can you change the variable (which is 'a') to a different letter? Algebra Family of Facts
2. Can you create an addition/subtraction family of facts? Family of Facts & REMIX
3. Can you create an algebraic version of the addition family of facts?
4. Can you replace the text "equals" with a large equals sign?
5. Can you make up your own hacking task? Start off hacking.
Colour Choice Version with a special option for colour blind people. Also design your own colour scheme.
Do the little math test, then remix it and make your own.
All the above involve the PrimeClimb number format. You could create you own quiz or picture to help people learn how numbers work.
Turtle drawing circles & REMIX
By entering the radius and the angle you can create a piece of art.
Remix to instantly draw your masterpiece.
Play with angles and lengths to create geometrical artwork.
Research the Pythagorean Spiral and adjust the colors, size and iterations of the spiral.
The triangles follow the pattern in the Pythagorean spiral, but they are arranged differently. Can you create your own Pythagorean picture?
Can you follow the code?
A Poem in Python highlights the patterns in the poem in an explicit way. Can you write a Python Poem?
Learn how to make mathematical shapes in Python by remixing.
Can you remix this to create an original piece of art?
You could create Pixel Art images to use in Scratch story telling or games.

Programmers solve problems using code, a Hacker is a creator/tinkerer, and a Developer is a formally trained programmer who doesn’t just solve problems but does so in a structured and disciplined way that was probably learned formally.

Eric raymond, a notable programmer and personality in the original computer community, defines a hacker like so, “An intelligent, creative, and open-minded individual who enjoys problem-solving, learning, and the sharing of knowledge above all else.” Source.

Things to watch out for:
Watch out: Logging into Trinket enables the REMIX option. When remixing sometimes you need to click "home" and re-open the file in order to publish it. Publishing allows you to share the product of your code, without sharing the actual code. Trinket remembers your changes, but you can see the original code at the click of the "remix" button. Breaking code is really easy, make sure you know which window your cursor is in before entering anything. Getting the wrong version of code can happen, and it can be frustrating.

Python has helpful colors: Green for comments, Red for text/output, Blue is for numbers. Usually you can change green, blue and red text without breaking the structure of the code. Black and Pink code is very structural.

Instead of downloading Python and Pycharm, Trinket allows you to code online.
When you log in using your google account you get some programs to play with. I found this a great way to experiment and learn.

Get Alice - You seem to have to download Alice. I prefer things to have an online option which makes them more accessible.

My own little project....
Aim: To create code which does the following:
Inputs an integer
Gives Prime Factorization
Draws the Prime Climb Number
Also displays each prime factor
Thoughts on Functions:
Determine the prime factorisation
Draw a composite number
Draw prime numbers
Python Code Journey:
Project Completed:
I did it!
It was a huge learning adventure
It was fun
I am now enjoying Python via Trinket - it is my new toy.
Learning through Python Play!
Playing with Python to:
produce different scenarios on betting on the NZ Election. No, I am not placing a bet, it was just interesting maths.
to create images of prime factorisation using the prime climb style.
