Using Python.Com  Challenges

In order to refine your Python skills for the controlled assessment all students should ensure that they understand can complete the following challenges.  If you can’t complete a challenge find out where you are going wrong and correct – do not move on until you have completed each challenge.
Your teacher will provide you with solutions:

If you are unsure about any of the basics work through the introductory sections from the main menu.

      Good use of introduction.

      Proof read your work I instead of i.

      Not sure why there is a call-out on the first section of code it doesn't tell us anything . You would be better splitting the code up and explaining each coding structure in detail. However, ytou have made some useful technical analysis.

      You make some strong statements that there is only one fault with this. Has it been tested? If not how do you know?

      You say appropriate variable names are a strength but do not give examples.

      This is very limited and doesn't go into the code in any real depth. You are marked for use of technical terminology. Have another go trying to explain what each section of code is doing and why.

      You have used some strong technical language here and would score reasonable well. Again though your conclusion is a little limited. Instead of simply printing a block of code out and then writing about it - showing and explaining it section by section would be more useful.

      I think you would score highly with this. You have described your code using correct language and in some detail. Your conclusion though is a little limited.

      This lacks detail. You need to look again at how you are describing the functions stating:

      How they are constructed
      What they do and why

      It is worthwhile analysing every construct in the function rather than screen dumping a whole section of code and writing about it.

      You also, need to consider strengths and weaknesses and write a fuller introduction and conclusion.

      There is little point in adding a call out unless it describes exactly what the code is doing.

      You did consider strengths and weaknesses but you need to illustrate with examples from the output.

      Your conclusion is limited.

    Hey Mr Thomas,

    Not sure if you saw Ieuan's in the next blog post, but I though I might as well put it here for him just in case you didn't get a chance to take a look at it. Here's his post:

      This doesn't work because you have not read the requiorments of the evaluation.

      I feel that this would secure a level 3 mark and is the right level and depth detail. However, I would suggest breaking up the constructs that you are exploring to explain in detail e.g. the while loop or a function.
