Year 10c programming fund 1

Key objective -  you will be able to create different types of variables and apply different operations to those variables.

Learning objectives

- Use and identify different data types

- Use and identify constants and variables

- Use assignment statements & arithmetic operators

- Use the constructs Sequence, Selection & Iteration

What is a data type?

Complete the table

	3.14535
	"Geoff"
	G
	314535
	True

String

Real/Float

Char

Boolean

Integer

Complete the Data Types Topic Test on Classroom 

What is a variable? and what is a constant?

name = str(input("Enter your name?")

DOB = int(input("What is your Date of birth?")

pi = 3.142

radius = float(input("What is the radius?")

print("The circumference is: " 2 * pi * radius)

Add 4 to 5
Print the result

1. Variable
2. Constant

Ask the user to type in a whole number
Add 5 to that number
Print the result

1. variable
2. constant

If 4 is less than 5
Add 5 to 4
Print the result
Otherwise
Print "no"

1. variable
2. constant

Ask the user to type in a whole number
If the number typed in is less than 5
Add 5 to the number typed in
Print the result Otherwise
Print "no"

1. variable
2. constant

Read section 5 Cambridge GO (Operators) 

- Interactive Activity 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d1, 10d2, 10e

- Complete the Operators Topic Test on Google

Classroom you should use Visual Studio Code for the calculations

Sequence - The order processes are carried out

Selection - a condition to decide the path through the program and which set of instructions to execute next

Iteration -where a group of instructions are repeated.

Generate a random number and store it as a variable ask the user to input a number.

Tell the user if the number is higher or lower than the random number.

Keep guessing until the player guesses the number.
