ReadingBat.com is a father-son effort, by Paul and Matthew Ambrose, to make learning how to program a little easier. We are big fans of CodingBat.com (so much so, that we shamelessly copied its look and feel). However, we observed that students often start using it to write code, prior to being equipped with the skill of reading code. It is difficult to write code without first learning how to read and follow code! So we set out to create ReadingBat.com, which attempts to make students comfortable reading code challenges and learning code idioms. Once a student is comfortable with reading code, they can head straight for CodingBat.com and move on to authoring their own code!
If you are interested in creating your own challenges, have a look at how to create your own repo here.
