RAPTOR is very common within the learning environment. This is because the software allows studentsusers to write and execute programs using [[flowchart]]s. The easy-to-usesimple language and graphical components of RAPTOR are designed to teach the major ideas of computer programming to students. It is typically used in academics to teach introductory programming concepts as well.<ref name=ACM2>{{cite webjournal|title=RAPTOR: introducing programming to non-majors with flowcharts|accessdateaccess-date=2015-08-24|websitejournal=ACMJournal of Computing Sciences in Colleges|date=April 2004 |volume=19 |issue=4 |pages=52–60 |url=http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1050231.1050238&coll=DL&dl=ACM|last1=Carlisle |first1=Martin C. |last2=Wilson |first2=Terry A. |last3=Humphries |first3=Jeffrey W. |last4=Hadfield |first4=Steven M. }}</ref>
