Course Overview 1) Getting Started In the first week students are introduced to Pascal, the process of writing, compiling and running code. Students will move from ‘Hello world’ to writing programs that get user input and perform simple calculations. 2) Math to Pascal In the second week of the course students use more complex mathematics in Pascal and gain more experience taking a problem and implementing its solution in Pascal. 3) Making decisions: if/else During this week students are introduced to decision constructs and add some logic to their programs. 4) Repeating pieces of code: for loop For loop, while loop and repeat until. 5) Case State: If else on steroids 6) Repeat Until 7) While Loop 8) Project 9) Procedures and functions 10) Arrays Saving Searching Sorting 11) If time.. Files Dynamic data structures

Assignment Enter the program into Pascal Pushes: Modify the program so that you can enter the TAX value. Look up the if..then and give a special thanks if they spend more than $500. Enter the program into Pascal Fix any errors made when entering the program. Compile and run it. Go back, make and document three errors. Write the error and what the compiler says on the code itself behind. Put {} around your descriptions. Turn it in as YourNameThreeErrors
