Study Notes

Coding Activities for Classes VII & VIII

Activity 3: If Conditional Statement involves writing an algorithm, flowchart, and program to make a beaver blend strawberries and serve them to a customer.
The steps involved are:
Wait for the customer to arrive
If the customer arrives, add strawberries
Blend and serve
Repeat the process until the last customer arrives

If-else Conditional Statement

Activity 4 involves writing an algorithm, flowchart, and program to make a beaver blend blackberries and serve them to a duck customer, or blend strawberries and serve them to other customers.
The steps involved are:
Wait for the customer to arrive
If the customer is a duck, add blackberries
Else, add strawberries
Blend and serve
Repeat the process until the last customer arrives

Loops

Activity 5 involves writing an algorithm, flowchart, and program to make a rat pick matchsticks and add them to a pile.
Loops are used to automate repetitive tasks.
Types of loops:
For loop: used to iterate over a sequence or iterable objects
Nested for loop: a loop within another loop
While loop: used to repeatedly execute a block of code while a condition is true
Nested while loop: a loop structure with another while loop inside it

Variables and Data Types

Task 2 involves writing an algorithm, flowchart, and program to help a baby monkey get a banana.
The task involves understanding different data types:
Integer: a whole number (e.g. 4)
Floating-point number: a decimal number (e.g. 4.5)
String: a sequence of characters (e.g. "Welcome")
Boolean: a true or false value (e.g. False)

Comments

Comments are used to add descriptions to the code to make it easier to understand.
Types of comments:
Single-line comments: marked using the hash (#) symbol at the beginning of a line
Inline comments: single-line comments written next to the code on the same line
Multiline comments: used to write multiple lines of description, marked using triple quotes

Input and Output

Task 1 involves writing a program to implement different scenarios using input and output coding concepts.
The scenarios involve:
Assigning a value to a variable and printing a message based on the value
Using nested-if statements to implement multiple scenarios

Coding Concepts

Loops are used to automate repetitive tasks.
There are different types of loops: for loop, nested for loop, while loop, and nested while loop.
Loops are used to perform operations that require multiple levels of iteration.
