5. Dry Run this program
age = input(“What is your age? “) double = age + age print(double)
Starter - have students guess, then test, then discuss reasons for the error.

6. Solution 1
age = input(“What is your age? “) age = int(age) double = age + age print(double)
Starter - have students guess, then test, then discuss reasons for the error.

7. Solution 2
age = int( input(“What is your age? “) ) double = age + age print(double)
Starter - have students guess, then test, then discuss reasons for the error.

8. + - * / ** % Arithmetic Operators num1 = input(”Enter a number: ”)
print(num1 + num2)
Find out what each of these does:
+ - * / ** %

9. Data Types Type Casting Meaning integer int() whole number float
decimal fraction
string
str()
text
boolean
bool()
yes / no
true / false
Introduce data types and casting.
Test out a few times.

10. Data Types
a = 3 type(a) a = 3.0 a = “3” a = True

11. Data Types a = 3 type(a) a = 3.0 a = “3” a = True a = 3 type(a)
a = int(“3”)
a = “True”

12. Multiple Choice Quiz pi.mwclarkson.co.uk York Python Camp
Programming Resources
Programs
Python Quiz.py
Provide multiple choice quiz.
Students adjust question and answer, include some numeric questions (focus on casting), task to duplicate for further questions and add an IF statement to give a grade.
