Ellen programming her smart alarm

Ellen programs her smart alarm clock by composition. She is used to composing Lego projects by selecting bricks and clicking them together. In a similar fashion, she selects objects and links them together to form her personal program. While Lego bricks are dumb pieces of plastic, Ellen's objects are smart and she augments them with code that adapt them to her needs.

埃伦通过组合式编程来配置她的智能闹钟。她习惯于通过挑选积木、拼接组合来搭建乐高作品。与此类似，她通过选中各类对象并将其关联组合，以此打造属于自己的个性化程序。尽管乐高积木仅为无智能的塑料构件，但埃伦所使用的对象均具备智能属性，她可为其添加适配自身需求的代码以增强功能。
