10:30 AM – Intro To Python – Bill

June 22 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am

Your HW:
  1. Study for the quiz next week
  2. Do this practice problem:
    1. Create new function with return value, called meter_to_cm
      1 paramter, meters
      convert the parameter meters into centimeters (1 meter = 100 cm)
      (number of cm = number of meters * 100)

      ask the user for number of meters to conver to cm
      plug in that user input into the function and print out:
      “<entered meters> is equal to <resulting centimeters>”

      Make the program run continuously until the user enters “exit”
      use a while loop, add code to make sure it exits (break)

  3. List of topics to study:
    Data types (list data types)
    Lists, how to add items to it
    Looping through lists

    Loops: while True, for loop with range
    Get user input, (careful of datatypes how to convert to int)

    Functions: with and without return value

    Fixing bugs – practice with the old homework
    Make sure to check the expected result and adjust your fixed code to make it
    act like the expected result
