joining me right now, code.org ceo and founder hadi partovi. great to have you back here. made incredible progress in just the last cointreau years. you were on the show when you launched it. talk to us about where the organization is today. mission is every school should teach computer science so every student has the opportunity to learn it. the opportunity to learn it should not be based on the color of your skin or the neighborhood you live in. when we started, only about 10% of schools taught computer science, now almost 40%, which is a huge change in u.s. education. number of students learning computer science, especially girls and minorities, has exploded. what we are so excited about today is to talk about the ap computer science exam, the advanced placement exam, a college-level course being taught in high schools than ever talk of your signs before. both girls and underrepresented minorities are flocking to this exam and discourse at a pace never seen before. emily: give us some of the numbers. how much progress are using among girls? >> code.org has 20 million s
