01 Calculator
This first Python programming assignment leads you through the design of your first algorithm to mimic a calculator, adding two numbers provided by the user. Through this example, we introduce the concept of variables and data types. We also explore inputs and outputs to receive information from the users and respond to them. Finally, we discuss how to investigate (or debug) the code when the result is not as expected.
Through this assignment, we explore the following computational concepts:
Variable
Input
Output
Algorithm
Data Type
Assignment
Number
String
Terminal
Debug
⏰ Time Management and Expectations
With this assignment, we aim at a smooth introduction. So take your time and do not hesitate to go off-road and explore further on your own.
