Automatic Detection of Bad Programming Habits in Scratch, A Preliminary Study
This paper shows the preliminary results of a study regarding two bad programming habits we have detected in our work as instructors with high school students learning to program with Scratch. In order to check if these bad habits, which have to do with object naming and code repetition, are also commonly found in the projects shared in the community repository, we downloaded 100 projects and analyzed them with two plug-ins we developed for Hairball, detecting that most of the inspected projects, 79% and 62% respectively, fall into these issues.
