I used to write BASIC programs on paper as a child before I had access to a computer.
There are plenty of algorithms you can learn without a computer too, and carry out on paper.
I have no idea what kind of things are allowed in prisons - would a microcontroller running a simple interpreter coupled with a small LCD and keypad be allowed? If so, something like that would be really great for applying programming concepts.
