Raptor is a visual programming environment designed for creating flowcharts that represent algorithms. It allows users to design, execute, and debug programs by visually arranging symbols representing different operations, making it easier to understand and develop algorithms without extensive coding knowledge.
About Raptor
Raptor was created in 2004 by the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the United States Air Force Academy. It was developed to help students learn programming concepts through a visual approach, making it easier to understand algorithmic logic and flow without requiring extensive prior knowledge of traditional programming languages.
Strengths of Raptor include its user-friendly visual interface, ease of learning for beginners, and effective debugging capabilities. Weaknesses include limited scalability for complex programs and lack of support for advanced programming concepts. Competitors include Scratch, Flowgorithm, and Blockly.
