Study Notes
- Conditionals enable code to run only when specific criteria are met.
- In Sprite Lab, a "repeat" loop executes a block of code a certain number of times.
- A nested loop involves one loop inside another.
- Combining conditionals and loops allows the creation of custom sprite behaviors, like patrolling.
- Variables in loops enable tracking of changing information.
Fill in the Blanks
- An "if" block determines if a condition is true.
- The "forever" loop runs indefinitely.
- Nested loops are useful for generating complex patterns of behavior.
- Custom sprite behaviors are created by combining conditionals and loops.
- Variables can monitor a sprite's speed and direction.
True or False
- Conditionals are useful beyond simple projects (False).
- A loop does not always run its code at least once (False).
- Nested loops can be used with conditionals (True).
- Variables makes code more simple and easier to understand (False).
- Sprite Lab does not only allow predefined loops (False).
Short Answers
- The main benefit of using conditionals is decision-making based on conditions.
- A sprite can move back and forth continuously using a "repeat" loop with conditionals for changing direction.
- An example of using a variable in a loop is tracking a sprite's score as it completes tasks.
- Combining conditionals and loops is useful because it allows more complex and dynamic sprite behaviors
- A "repeat" loop runs a set number of times.
