Study Notes
Boolean Expressions and Relational Operators
- A Boolean expression is an expression tested by an if statement to determine if it is true or false.
- Relational operators determine whether a specific relationship exists between two values.
- Examples of relational operators include >, <, >=, and <=.
The if-else Statement
- A dual alternative decision structure has two possible paths of execution.
- The if-else statement has two clauses: if and else.
- The syntax is: if condition: statements, else: other statements.
- The if clause and else clause must be aligned.
- Statements must be consistently indented.
Comparing Strings
- Strings can be compared using the == and != operators.
- String comparisons are case sensitive.
- Strings can be compared using >, <, >=, and <=.
Boolean Variables
- A Boolean variable references one of two values, True or False.
- Boolean variables are represented by the bool data type.
- They are commonly used as flags.
- A flag is a variable that signals when some condition exists in a program.
Turtle Graphics: Determining the State of the Turtle
- The turtle.xcor() and turtle.ycor() functions return the turtle's X and Y coordinates.
- The turtle.heading() function returns the turtle's heading.
- These functions can be used in if statements to control the turtle's behavior.
Decision Structures and Boolean Logic
- A control structure is a logical design that controls the order in which a set of statements execute.
- A sequence structure is a set of statements that execute in the order they appear.
- A decision structure is a specific action(s) performed only if a condition exists.
- Decision structures can be single alternative or dual alternative.
- Logical operators are used to combine conditions in decision structures.
