Hey guys, I wanted to help a few people out because I read a lot of messages and hear a lot of people say "I know how to code only if I knew what to code." So I am going to give you guess a bunch of questions... don't worry I will first tell you what it's about. example: loops... when I say that I mean, sure you can use if's and 500 lines of code but I want you to solve the problem WITH LOOPS!!! you can submit the code for checking if you want / questioning.
PART 1!!! before we start this isnt a tutorial on HOW TO USE (said wanted thing here) but ways you can practice and make examples / solving problems!
Documenting code wouldn't be that bad of an idea btw. When I say this Im telling you that you SHOULD.. just saying. Take note of things that didn't work, learn to solve .. and write it down.
It will help you be a better programmer
IF you do know programming and just wanna mess around and have something to practice with this helps too
Chapter 1 - Introduction:
QUIZ
____
1. put "This is"
put "a program"
2. put "3*4 is equal to" ..
put 3*4
3. put "first line"..
put "second line"
put "third line"
4. put "3*7=",31
put "20/4+2=",20/4+2
5. What does the comma do on a "put" line?
6. What does the ".." do at the end of a put line?
DO:
1. Write a program that lists the addresses of 5 people. Include their name, street, city, postal code and phone number. Put each piece of information on a separate line, and have a blank line between each person's information.
For example:
Dan Scott
35 programmer st.
Location, ON
K8C Q1I
234-3421
?
2. Output can be formatted when it is output. Create a new program with the line
put "how many digits are seen here?",1/6
put "how many here?", 1/6:10:2
Run this simple program, and determine what the ":10" and the ":2" does to the program.
The ":10" at the end of the second line keeps the output to 10 spaces. Write a
program that makes 4 calculations that involve many decimal points. (e.g. 4/9).
Format the output so that the first calculation has 2 decimal points, the second calculation has 3 decimal points, and so on.
3. Write a program to calculate the Ontario tax on a pair of jeans that cost $49.99. Format the output and include an appropriate message.
4. Write a program to calculate the perimeter of a box with length 4.49m and width 10.29m. Calculate the area of the box too. Format both measurements to 2 decimal places.
5. When you use the formatting to "reserve space" for output, you can create a set of data that looks properly aligned. For example, you could get the data to look like:
Name Address Age School
John 12 Smith St. 18 NDCHS
Sarah 123 High St. 22 CPHS
Car 1 Lost Rd. 8 St. Mary's
Create a table that looks like this for 5 people.
(Remember this)
| Turing: |
put "":10, "Hello" |
6. Write a program that creates a "bill of sale" for a company of your choice. The output for this program should "look like" a bill you would receive from any store: name of the store, address, time, etc. as well as the items purchased and their costs. For this assignment, your bill should include at least 3 items. There should be a total, as well as GST and PST calculations on the bottom of the bill. Whenever possible, you should use the techniques for formatting output outlined in this chapter. ex, put "":10, "HEY"
Here it is for Chapter 1. If you guys want some more chapters I will be glad to make them.. If Im allowed I can make all 11 chapters into one big thread.. if I get permission
Happy easter!!
