I got to know a homeless man, Leo. I1him two options that I could either give him a2and teach him how to write computer3, or give him $100 in cash. He accepted my4offer, even though he didn't know what coding was. I am a5believer in the power of6. I was home-schooled by my mother, herself a software engineer. By the age of 12 I had7my own business designing websites and had earned $30,000. Writing code is a8and much rewarding skill, so I was sure that if Leo learned how to do it, and that could be a way for him to turn things9.
I bought Leo a secondhand laptop and three books on Java, the programming language. Leo had used computers10at school but didn't have an email address and didn't know how to do very basic things such as copy and paste(粘贴) text.11he has an incredible memory and can12information almost word for word. Our goal is to13an app. Leo came up with the idea: a car-sharing app that14the amount of CO2 emissions(排放) you've avoided; he is concerned about the15.
He is16dedicated(专注的) and works at it for three hours a day: no mean feat(成就), because the information is incredibly dense and it's17to absorb a lot at one time.
I always thought homeless people were18, but Leo is part of a very supportive community. When our project is over, I hope Leo will be offered a job19. I don't think that's20. As well as being brilliant at coding (he'll have surpassed me in two years), I think he could make a great teacher.
