For GCSE, you must know the following for programming:

Outputs and Inputs
Variables
Maths Operators
Random numbers
Strings and Casting
Booleans
If, elif, else
Nested Ifs
For loops
While loops
Nested loops
Arrays/Lists
2D Lists
File handling
Subprograms(functions/procedures)

Warm-up Practice:

Learning Objectives:

I can tell someone what an algorithm is
I know how to create a simple Python Program (Input and Output)
I can explain and debug an algorithm/Python Program

Keywords

Sequence: Lines of code are run in order they appear once.
Integer: a whole number; a number that is not a fraction.
Float / Real: A number with a decimal point
Random number: A number that appears to have been selected randomly from a set
Import random: Let's you use a library of code that focuses on random numbers

Predict and Run

Look at the code for each question.

What do you think will be the output?

What is the actual output?

1

What do you think will happen with this code:
import random randomNumber = random.randint(1,6) print("You rolled a ...") print(randomNumber)

Investigate

Look at the code on the right.
Run it and see what it does.
Click on the pencil icon at the top to see the code again.
Change the numbers inside randint( ) and see what happens.
Does it still work if the number 1 is replaced?

Debug

Click on each link and try dragging and dropping code into the correct order

Help:

print ( ) is used to output text

input( ) is used to get the user to type something

Variables store values that can change.

Name = Value here

e.g. myName = "John"

To store numbers in a variable use:

variableName = int(input())

Create a program that will ask the user for how many sides they want their dice to have using:
int(input(" "))
Then generate a number from 1 to that number.

Create a program that generates two random numbers between 1 and 6.
Add both of these numbers together and display the total.

Here is a code to randomly compliment or insult someone.
Add in your own adjectives and nouns where there are square brackets [ ]

CHALLENGE:
Continue with the last code:
Generate a third roll from 2 to 12.
If that number is larger than the sum of the first two numbers, output "You lose". If it is lower, output "You win!".
If it is the same, output "Draw".
