To introduce learners to the features of event driven programming and the event driven development
environment and to develop the skills required to design, implement, test, document and review event driven
programs.

Unlike traditional programming, where the control flow is determined by the program structure, the control
flow of event driven programs is largely driven by external events. Typically, event loops are pre-programmed
to continually look for information to process. Event driven programming is a very flexible way of allowing
programs to respond to many inputs or events.
