Meu primeiro exercício de programação

The author practiced programming logic using Portugol and Flowgorithm to master program construction before adopting complex languages. Key concepts covered included variable declaration, data input, output, and decision structures. A specific exercise involved creating a vehicle penalty algorithm that calculated points and fines based on speed thresholds: no penalty under 40 km/h, R$ 150 for 40-60 km/h, R$ 250 for 60-80 km/h, and R$ 560 above 80 km/h. Overcoming initial errors helped deepen their understanding.
