The six sides of the front, back, left, right, and upper and lower gradually materialize, and the cube space becomes a white room, and a workbench appears in the room.

Xiao Yuan was put down from the air, he walked to the workbench and sat down, touched the white keyboard placed on the workbench, the touch is exactly the same as the keyboard in reality, there is a monitor in the middle of the workbench, and there is a line of words on the display: Quasi-junior developer Xiao Yuan, welcome to the development mode teaching system, tap any key to enter the tutorial.

Hit the space bar, the screen on the monitor turned, and officially entered the teaching mode, first of all, a series of development documents waiting for Xiao Yuan to read, suitable for his current level, page by page through these documents, Xiao Yuan found that the development here is a little different from what he imagined, originally the development he imagined was similar to programming in reality, but the development given in the illustrated documents completely involved programming, but provided him with another way, this way reminded Xiao Yuan of building blocks.

After reading the development document, Xiao Yuan followed the prompts to enter the practice program of the teaching system, and a square development board full of circular holes appeared on the workbench in front of him, and Xiao Yuan was provided with some connecting lines of different colors next to the square board, when Xiao Yuan picked up a line, a transparent information window appeared next to the line, and there was an introduction to the connection line in the information window. In addition to these connecting lines, there are some blocks of different colors on the workbench, when Xiao Yuan picks up these blocks, there will also be an information window next to the block, which says the functions of these blocks, these blocks integrate some slightly more complex logical operations, Xiao Yuan's current level is very low, so the functions provided by these logical operation integrated blocks are very limited.

After Xiao Yuan became familiar with all these props, the practice program typed his first task on the monitor, using these modules to design a binary converter that required input of a decimal integer on one section of the board and its binary form at the other end.

This problem seems simple, and Xiao Yuan is also very familiar with the specific calculation method in theory, but to use the existing functional modules at hand to build such a converter, Xiao Yuan because it is the first time to do this kind of thing, he needs to be familiar with various modules and try at the same time, so it takes a long time, and it took half an hour to build the final converter and complete the test.

After he completed the converter as required and submitted the task according to the requirements of the practice system, the shape of the converter board changed, and the development board filled with various blocks and cables became a block, and the practice system also gave a hint that the converter could be used as a functional module in the future, and another blank development board appeared on the table for him to use.

After making the first functional module, the system gave the second practice question, which is still a similar problem, the difficulty is almost the same as the first question, Xiao Yuan has a certain understanding of the entire development process when the first question is made, so the speed of doing the second question is much faster than the first question, it only took ten minutes to complete, and after the completion of his results also became an integrated block for later use.

The practice system came out one after another, Xiao Yuan took all the orders, his proficiency became higher and higher, and he did it faster and faster, but these questions were endless, but Xiao Yuan muttered, and if he continued to do this, all the operations related to the operation algorithm related to integers would be completed, but not long after this thought arose in his heart, the practice system announced that all the exercises in the first stage had been completed.

After retiring from the practice system, Xiao Yuan was about to study again, but was prompted that his mental energy consumption was close to the critical line, asked him to rest, and forcibly kicked him out of the development environment.

Taking off the brainwave helmet, Xiao Yuan felt dizzy, his head was groggy, he asked the time, and was surprised to find that from putting on the brainwave helmet to taking off the helmet, nearly ten hours had passed, no wonder he felt dizzy, the night was supposed to be the time to sleep and rest, but his brain has been vigorously active, unless it is a tireless computer, normal people have been active in the brain for so long, I am afraid that there is no dizziness.

After breakfast, Xiao Yuan did not enter the brain system, but lay on the bed and slept steadily, in the afternoon, he went to Area 1 in a wheelchair, where he received professional physical recovery training arranged by the old crocodile, and returned to his residence in the evening After dinner, he put on a brainwave helmet again, this time he did not go to the previous virtual world, but directly entered the development mode, and continued to study step by step in the teaching system.

In this way, in the next few days, before his body fully recovered, his life was completely turned upside down, sleeping in the morning during the day, going to Zone 1 training in the afternoon, and entering the development mode with a brainwave helmet at night to study step by step.

The first three days in the teaching system, all his learning and practice content are related to logical operations, and with the deepening of learning progress, the logic module he can design is more and more complex, which is hard, but it is also full of fun, it turns out that he came here with a purpose to study, but later, he gradually developed a strong interest in learning here, although the original purpose is still firmly in mind, but learning has become an interest, when this transformation occurs, The learning efficiency has improved a lot compared to before.

On the third day of development mode, he successfully passed the pre-junior developer test and was successfully promoted to a full-fledged developer, although he is still a junior developer.

The biggest difference between a formal developer and a would-be developer is that all his design scope will no longer be limited to the development environment simulated by the teaching system, but can be run in the brain system environment.

Of course, to really develop the brain system, he still needs to go through a period of early learning, and the new content in this level finally has the content of program development, at this stage, he can use the method of programming to design more complex and complex integration modules, or through programming to assemble the integration module, instead of having to do all the work on the development board manually.

Xiao Yuan studied the programming language provided by the system, which is a completely object-oriented, even component-oriented programming language, its syntax is somewhat similar to C++, so Xiao Yuan did not spend too much effort on the programming language to master it, after a series of basic syntax tests, the system confirmed that Xiao Yuan has mastered the basic knowledge of the programming language, so Xiao Yuan was given some modules that can be called.

These modules are divided into many module groups according to their different functions, among all these module groups, Xiao Yuan is most interested in two, one of which is the artificial intelligence module group, the artificial intelligence module group contains many intelligent modules in the field of traditional artificial intelligence, such as the decision tree logical intelligence module that focuses on logical reasoning, the big data intelligent analysis decision-making module that focuses on data statistical analysis, etc., but Xiao Yuan was disappointed that he did not find a module related to human brain thinking in these modules, that is, Using these modules, it is possible to design very powerful artificial intelligence programs, but it is not possible to design an agent that can generate personality like Ning Lan.

Another thing that Xiao Yuan is interested in is the model module group, which provides a series of highly abstract mathematical model modeling components, of course, it is not easy to make good use of these modules, because each of these modules requires a very complex theory as the basis to understand, and understanding is the basis of application, so among all these model components, Xiao Yuan can understand and use not too much, and what interests him the most is the module related to chaos theory.

After studying all the module groups one by one, as an exercise, Xiao Yuan wrote some intelligent programs, which used different modules in the artificial intelligence module group, so that their intelligence had different directions of intellectual focus.

After designing these ordinary artificial intelligence programs, Xiao Yuan decided to continue the work he had not completed in the real world in the development mode, combining the chaotic system model with the artificial intelligence model, and adding the easy-to-learn theory that he had been experimenting with, and designing an artificial intelligence program that could evolve. The next thing he had to do was to find an environment to run the program in, so that it would be influenced by various external factors, so that it would evolve on its own, and watch his evolution every step in real time.

But the environment provided by the teaching environment was very simple, and it did not meet Xiao Yuan's requirements, and after thinking about it, he finally thought of the virtual world that he hadn't been to for a long time.

"If you call this intelligent program to Ning Lan, let her help design a virtual person, and use this program as the brain of the virtual person, and then let Ning Lan take him to grow up in the virtual world, this may be a good solution, but I don't know if Ning Lan will design a virtual person, and whether she has the ability to place this intelligent program in the brain of the virtual person?"

Xiao Yuan thought of this, because he was eager to know the answers to these questions, he decided to leave the development mode for the time being and enter the virtual world to discuss with Ning Lan, but when he reappeared in his room in Nanzhou Old Street and summoned Ning Lan, Ning Lan did not appear in time.

"Where did Ning Lan go?" Xiao Yuan muttered in his heart, so he summoned again, Ning Lan just appeared in the room, but her image surprised Xiao Yuan, "Ning Lan, what are you doing here, why are you so embarrassed?" ”
