Turing, while hard to understand is quite fun once you get the hang of it.

--> Turing is not hard at all. Turing is a very easy language to learn, just that it is not as powerful as other programming languages, such as C++ and Java.

Actually, it has exactly the same power as C++ and Java, i.e. it allows you to compute anything that is Turing Computable.

If by fun you mean the biggest waste of time in my entire highschool career (worse than grade 9 gym!).

Sounds like a problem in the writer rather than in the language!

Article Expansion Suggestions

Though there may be mixed feelings about this programming language, I feel it deserves a more detailed article. I'm first thinking I'd like to add some details as to why it is a suitable language for teaching programming (easily used graphic procedures, very little preparation time, etc.) Before I add a whole new heading, I'd just like to give anyone else who may be watching this page a chance to make suggestions.
