Revision as of 11:13, 26 February 2019

Tuesday (2/26/19)

Agenda:

  • Morse Code updates
    • Make sure both Part 1 and Part 2 of Morse Code Translator are complete
    • Part 1 you can submit to repl.it
    • Part 2 will have a repl.it submission soon...
  • File Reading
    • open()
    • read()
  • Integrate file reading into your morse code

Friday (2/22/19)

Agenda:

  • Take the Strings Quiz in Canvas
    • Closed-book, closed-note, closed-person
  • Work on Morse Code Translator
    • Complete Part 1: Plain -> Morse
    • Repl.it auto-testing will be used to collect assignment
    • Complete Part 2: Morse -> Plain (with a function)
  • Challenge:
    1. Research Python dictionaries
    2. Re-implement both plain2morse.py and morse2plain.py so that they use dictionaries instead of functions

Wednesday (2/20/19)

  • Snow Day

Friday (2/15/19)

Agenda:

  • While loops quiz (5 mins)
  • Introduction to Strings
  • Strings (Python) slides
    • Complete the Basic Strings Exercises in Canvas
  • Review Basic Strings Exercises
  • Strings quiz next week
  • Work on Morse Code Translator
    • Complete Part 1: Plain -> Morse
    • Repl.it auto-testing will be used to collect assignment

Wednesday (2/13/19)

Warmup:

  1. You are creating a program that asks the user to enter an angle within the 2nd quadrant of the coordinate plane (90-180 degrees)
  2. Write a while loop that will continually ask the user to enter an angle while the number is not within the range

Agenda:

  • Looping examples
    • Acceptable ranges
    • Generating non-overlapping coordinates
  • While loops quiz on Friday (2/15/19)

Monday (2/11/19)

Warmup:

  • Complete the 2 minute While Loops Practice Quiz in Canvas

Agenda:

  • While Loops Practice Quiz debrief
    • You will have a real time quiz in the future (Wednesday or Friday)!
  • Demo Taylor Series Pi and e if you have not already done so
  • WPM Survey
  • Looping examples
    • Authentication (login screens)
    • Acceptable ranges

Thursday (2/7/19)

Agenda:

Tuesday (2/5/19)

Warmup:

  • Complete the printStr function & loop warmup in repl.it

Agenda:

  • Workplace Readiness Skills Assessment - Thursday (2/7/19)
    • Go to the Cafeteria @ 8:19am if you have not already taken the assessment
    • 1st period students who have already taken the assessment will sit quietly off to the side of the cafeteria
  • Complete and demo the Monte Carlo Calculation of Pi (Wing IDE)
    • Additional challenge: Animate your Monte Carlo Pi calculation using Processing
  • Slightly more advanced looping practice:
    • Add up all the numbers from 539 through 9394
    • Calculate 41! (<-factorial)
  • Euler's identity
  • Complete Taylor Series Pi and e

Friday (2/1/19)

Agenda:

  • Verify that you have completed the isPrime function and loop assignment in repl.it
  • Complete and demo the Monte Carlo Calculation of Pi (Wing IDE)
    • Additional challenge: Animate your Monte Carlo Pi calculation using Processing
