Yenka

Posted by Rolpege

Have you ever wanted to experiment with electrical circuits, chemical mixtures or even basic programation in easy ways?

Now you can with Yenka!

This software, available in both Windows and Mac, lets you:

  • Learn to code with a very simple way (Drags & Drops), making programmation diagrams. You can combine that with 3D models or other program elements.
  • Experiment with 3D figures.
  • Learn statistic.
  • Experiment with 2D and 3D coordinates.
  • Make electrochemistry experiments!
  • Do reactions with Inorganic Chemistry.
  • Experiment with sound and light.
  • Investigate projectiles, oscillations, gravity and motion.
  • Simulate power generation and transmission, and analogue electrical circuits.
  • Basic Circuits: Use pictorial components to build simple circuits
  • Electronics: Design and simulate circuits using over 150 types of component, testing and refining your design as you work.
  • Yenka PCBs: an add-on for Yenka Electronics, which takes the circuits you simulate, and converts them into 3D PCB simulations, whose layouts can be exported for manufacture.
  • PIC/PICAXE chips: write routines using simple flowcharts, and test them on-screen, before using them to program real PIC or PICAXE chips.
  • Gears: Experiment with a range of mechanical components, in full 3D.

All of this and much more is what Yenka lets you to do! The program is free to use in home, but you have to pay for it if you want a school licence. It’s oriented to learning and education. Experiment with Yenka!
