Blokipõhist

Blokipõhist is an Estonian term that translates to "block-based" or "based on blocks." It is commonly used in the context of computer programming, particularly in educational settings or for simplified development environments. Block-based programming allows users to create programs by dragging and dropping graphical blocks that represent commands, logic, and data. These blocks are often color-coded and snap together like puzzle pieces, visually demonstrating the structure and flow of the code. This approach abstracts away complex syntax, making programming more accessible to beginners, children, and individuals without extensive coding experience. Examples of platforms that utilize block-based programming include Scratch, Blockly, and MakeCode. The core idea is to represent code constructs in a tangible, visual format, reducing the cognitive load associated with traditional text-based coding. This methodology is instrumental in teaching fundamental programming concepts such as sequencing, loops, conditionals, and variables in an intuitive and engaging manner. Beyond education, block-based interfaces can also be found in some specialized software for automation or rapid prototyping.
