Dear group members,
I'm posting here for the first time, so first let me introduce myself - my
name is Jaroslav Švelch, I'm at Charles University in Prague, working on
history of computer games and hobby computing in 1980s Czechoslovakia (and
behind the Iron Curtain in general). (A link to one of my articles:
http://gamestudies.org/1302/articles/svelch)
In my research, I've come across a very popular early 1980s Czechoslovak
computer programming learning aid, somewhat similar to Bell Technologies'
CARDIAC (http://hackaday.com/2014/10/14/a-clever-cardboard-computer/) or
MIT's Little Man Computer. I find it quite fascinating. Do you happen to
know any literature (or unpublished knowledge) related to the history of
these aids?
Thanks!
Best,
Jaroslav
