Description:

A census of programming languages and other features of introductory programming courses was conducted in 2001 and 2003. The census provides access to over 80 instructors of introductory programming. The census also allows for discovery of information on topical issues, possibly allowing a student to follow their own research interest. The results of the census have a definite audience that almost guarantees publication.
