Teaching kids to code (编码) is just as important as teaching them any other language. And the younger they start learning it, the better, Apple CEO Tim Cook said Wednesday.

Cook spoke to a group of New York third graders who visited a Manhattan Apple store for an “Hour of Code” class. In an interview afterward, he said that schools aren't putting enough emphasis on computer­science education, but he has “great hope” that will change and coding will finally become a required class for all kids.

“From an economic standpoint the job division itself today is huge, but it's going  to become even larger.”Cook said.

And if the concepts are introduced at a young age, in a fun way, it's more likely that kids will find them cool and stay interested as they grow older, hopefully resulting in a larger and more diverse tech workforce down the road. he said. Cook added that even if kids don't grow up to get a job in the tech industry, they'll discover a new way to be creative and pick up important problem­solving skills along the way.

The kids at Wednesday's event played with a Star Warsthemed game created by the non­profit group Code. org  in partnership with Disney. Their teacher, Joann Khan, said  the lessons taught through the game bring to life some of the math skills the kids are learning in her classroom, something she planned to point out to them when they returned to school.

The “Hour of Code” workshop was one of many held by Apple Inc, and a great number of other technology companies  around the world this week as part of a Code. org push to introduce as many kids as possible to computer science through a one­hour class.

How can you tell if someone's lying? The answer is, they're probably not.

Traditional economics says that people are rational (理智的)beings who will lie if it's to their advantage.A recent  university study has shown that, actually，we're pretty honest－especially when we're at home.

Researchers in Germany phoned people at home and asked them to toss(投掷) a coin. There was a strong financial incentive(刺激) to fake the result: if the coin landed tails­up, the participants would receive money or a gift ticket, while if the coin landed heads­up, they would get nothing. Because they were on the phone, they knew there was no risk of getting caught if they lied.
