4 PM – Intro to Python – Allison

January 22 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Today we:
  1. Reviewed your Turtle project
  2. Started and finished the Grocery System Program
  3. Went over the beginning of the Robux Shopping Cart project
Project Feedback:
  1. The word “Peashooter” is drawn and colored in an incorrect order.
  2. There are a few thin lines that show up between the letters when drawing and coloring “Peashooter”. Try to get rid of these lines.
  3. Make your pea object more complex (ex: add more details, add shading, add highlights, etc.) or create one more object (ex: clouds) and call that object (ideally multiple times (ex: calling a cloud function three times to create three clouds))
  4. The Triangle function do not reset the angle back to zero by the end of the function, which could potentially affect how the following functions are drawn.
    1. As a good coding practice, the Triangle function should reset the angle back to 0 by the end of the function.
  5. The Triangle function does not go back to (x, y) by the end of the function.
    1. As a good coding practice, the Triangle function should go back to (x, y) by the end of the function.
    2. This is useful for if you want to use triangles in other functions beside the Zombie function because it allows you to reuse the Triangle function.
Homework:
  1. If you want, you can revise your project to add the feedback above and receive a higher project score. If you decide to do this:
    1. Upload your Turtle Project in the Google Drive as “DAY_TurtleProject_Revised″ by the end of January 25.
      1. Ex: If you submit your homework on January 24, upload your homework as “Jan24_TurtleProject_Revised”
    2. Notes:
      1. Your project should not have any significant bugs or problems
      2. Make sure your project meets the criteria listed in this link: https://www.ayclogic.com/intro-to-python-final-project-criteria/
  2. Study for the Final Test (which is next week on Thursday, January 25)
    1. Resources you can study:
      1. Grocery System project
      2. Robux Shopping Cart project
      3. Turtle projects
      4. Other class projects
