Looking to practice your Python skills more? In this one-time class, we will work on the Game Loop needed for all games, while practicing logic statements, variables, and computational thinking. We will learn how to get Python to play "Guess a Number" with us, where the computer picks the number AND where the player picks the number. Here's what the game looks like in action: https://GuessingGames.lhines.repl.run Students will program in the class and will be challenged to apply concepts previously learned to these two games. We will review concepts and then apply them in this context. To take this course, your child needs to be able to type with a speed of at least 20 WPM. Your learner should have done some basic programming previously, preferably in Python. They should have a working knowledge of: -variables, console input and output, and random numbers We will review these topics in class, but they will struggle if this is their first exposure to these concepts. Topics covered: -The Game Loop, and while loops -if-statements, used to make a decision -logic statements -making user-friendly games
Learning Goals
Students will build two Guess a Number games, with related but different logic
Students will apply previously learned Python skills to new contexts
