Finished that video, and will revisit.
This video is the definition of excellence!
I found my pastime for at least the next month (watching all of the videos)!
Thanks
This teaching method reminded me of one introduced by Shimon Schocken (June 2012) for teaching kids math.
If interested, watch the following Ted talk beginning at the 9 minute 30 second mark:

If you watched the entire video, you may be curious about the Nand to Tetris course that is spoken of.
That can be found here: http://nand2tetris.org/course.php
I had mentioned this course on the forum before, after I took the first half, which I found to be a most
pleasurable experience. I see noe, that the second half is available, so will have to take that as well.
I highly recommend this (Nand to Tetris) course to anyone wanting to get a through understanding of how a computer works, from
the first Nand gate to a working model, where you build a working 16 bit computer from the ground up, then build
an OS, assembler and compiler and finally finish with a tetris game, all in six weeks! And it is entirely free (other than the textbook).
