Teach Python with the Mu editor
======
Mu makes it easy to learn how to write Python code.
![Hands on a keyboard with a Python book ][1]
Teaching kids to code is very popular in schools. Many years ago, in the days of the Apple II and [Logo][2] programming, I learned about turtle graphics. I enjoyed learning how to program the virtual turtle and later helping students to do the same.
About five years ago, I learned about [Python's turtle module][3], and it was the segue to my Python journey. Soon, I started using the turtle module to teach students Python programming basics, including using it to create interesting graphics.
### Get started with Python's turtle module
On a Linux or macOS computer, you can just open a terminal, enter the word `python`, and you'll see the Python shell.
If you are using a Windows computer, you will need to install Python first by going to the Python website and [downloading][4] the latest stable version.
Next, import the turtle module into Python with `import turtle `or `import turtle as t`. Then you can start having some fun creating turtle graphics.
### Meet Mu
In the early days of my Python adventure, I used [IDLE][5], Python's integrated development environment. It was much easier than entering commands into the Python shell, plus I could write and save programs for later use. I took some online courses and read many excellent books about Python programming. I taught teachers and students how to create turtle graphics using IDLE.
IDLE was a big improvement, but at PyConUS 2019 in Cleveland, I saw a presentation by [Nicholas Tollervey][6] that changed the way I learned and taught Python. Nick is an educator who created [Mu][7], a Python editor specifically for young programmers (and even older ones like me). Mu can be installed on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It's easy to use and comes with excellent [documentation][8] and [tutorials][9].
On Linux, you can install Mu from the command line.
On Ubuntu or Debian:
```
`$ sudo apt install mu-editor`
```
On Fedora or similar:
```
`$ sudo dnf install mu`
```
Or, you can use Python to do the install. First, ensure you have Python 3 installed:
```
`$ python --version`
```
If that fails, try:
```
`$ python3 --version`
```
Assuming you have Python version 3 or better, install Mu using `pip`, the Python package manager:
```
`$ python -m pip install mu-editor --user`
```
Then you can run Mu from the command line or create a shortcut using:
```
`$ python -m pip install shortcut mu-editor --user`
```
Mu is installed by default on the [Raspberry Pi][10], which is a great plus. In the past couple of years, I have introduced students to the Raspberry Pi and Python programming using the Mu editor.
### How to teach Python with Mu
Mu is a great way to show students how easy it is to get started with Python. Here's how I teach my students to start using it.
1. Open the Mu editor.

2. Enter `import turtle` to import the Turtle module, so you can get the turtle moving. My first lesson is drawing a simple square in Python code.

3. Save this program, making sure that the file name ends in .py.

4. Run the program. Running even a simple program like this is energizing—it's fun to see the graphical output of a program you wrote.

### Beyond the basics
After this simple lesson, I explain that there are some ways to simplify and expand on the basics the students have learned. One is creating a simpler turtle object, `import turtle as t`. Then I introduce a `for` loop as another way to draw a square with the turtle.

Next, I show how to create a `my_square` function as another way to draw a square.

Later, I expand on this concept by introducing other turtle module methods, including `penup`, `pendown`, and `pencolor`. Soon, my students are developing more complex programs and iterating on them.

I am always eager to learn, and I would love to know how you are teaching Python in school or at home. Please share your experience in the comments.

使用 Mu 编辑器教授 Python
======
Mu 让你轻松学会如何编写 Python 代码。
![Hands on a keyboard with a Python book ][1]
在学校里,教孩子们编程是非常流行的。很多年前,在 Apple II 和 [Logo][2] 编程的年代,我学会了乌龟图案。我很喜欢学习如何对虚拟乌龟进行编程,后来也帮助学生进行编程。
大约五年前,我了解了 [Python 的 turtle 模块][3],这是我 Python 之旅的转折点。很快,我开始使用 turtle 模块来教学生 Python 编程基础,包括使用它来创建有趣的图形。
### 开始使用 Python 的 turtle 模块
在 Linux 或 macOS 电脑上,你只需打开一个终端,输入 `python`,你就会看到 Python shell。
如果你使用的是 Windows 电脑,则需要先安装 Python到 Python 网站上[下载][4]最新的稳定版。
接下来,用 `import turtle ``import turtle as t` 将 turtle 模块导入 Python 中。然后你就可以开始享受创建乌龟图案的乐趣了。
### 认识一下 Mu
在我的 Python 冒险的早期,我使用了 [IDLE][5],它是 Python 的集成开发环境。它比在 Python shell 中输入命令要容易得多,而且我可以编写和保存程序供以后使用。我参加了一些在线课程,阅读了许多关于 Python 编程的优秀书籍。我教老师和学生如何使用 IDLE 创建乌龟图案。
IDLE 是一个很大的改进,但在克利夫兰的 PyConUS 2019 上,我看到了 [Nicholas Tollervey][6]的演讲,这改变了我学习和教授 Python 的方式。Nick 是一位教育家,他创建了 [Mu][7],一个专门为年轻程序员(甚至像我这样的老程序员)设计的 Python 编辑器。Mu 可以安装在 Linux、macOS 和 Windows 上。它很容易使用,并且附带了优秀的[文档][8]和[教程][9]。
在 Linux 上,你可以通过命令行安装 Mu。
在 Ubuntu 或 Debian 上:
```
`$ sudo apt install mu-editor`
```
在 Fedora 或类似的地方:
```
`$ sudo dnf install mu`
```
或者,你可以使用 Python 来进行安装。首先,确保你已经安装了 Python 3
```
`$ python --version`
```
如果失败了,就试试:
```
`$ python3 --version`
```
假设你有 Python 3 或更高版本,使用 Python 包管理器 `pip` 安装 Mu。
```
`$ python -m pip install mu-editor --user`
```
然后你可以从命令行运行 Mu或者创建一个快捷方式
```
`$ python -m pip install shortcut mu-editor --user`
```
Mu 默认安装在[树莓派][10]上,这是一个很大的优点。在过去的几年里,我已经向学生介绍了树莓派和使用 Mu 编辑器的 Python 编程。
### 如何用 Mu 教授 Python
Mu 是向学生展示 Python 入门的好方法。下面是我如何教学生开始使用它。
1. 打开Mu编辑器。

2. 输入 `import turtle` 导入 Turtle 模块,就可以让乌龟动起来了。我的第一课是用 Python 代码画一个简单的正方形。

3. 保存这个程序,确保文件名以 .py 结尾。
![Saving program in Mu][14]

4. 运行程序。哪怕是运行这样一个简单的程序都会让人兴奋,看到你写的程序的图形输出是很有趣的。

### 超越基础知识
在上完这节简单的课后,我讲解了有一些方法可以简化和扩展学生所学的基础知识。一是创建一个更简单的 turtle 对象,`import turtle as t`。然后我介绍了一个 `for` 循环,作为用 turtle 画一个正方形的另一种方法。
![for loops in Python with Mu][16]

接下来,我将展示如何创建一个 `my_square` 函数,作为另一种绘制正方形的方法。
![my_square function][17]
(Don Watkins, [CC BY-SA 4.0][12])
后来,我通过介绍其他 turtle 模块方法,包括 `penup`、`pendown` 和 `pencolor`来扩展这个概念。很快,我的学生们就开始开发更复杂的程序,并对其进行迭代。

我一直渴望学习,我很想知道你在学校或家里是如何教授 Python 的。请在评论中分享你的经验。
