This Week's ActivitiesLearning Objectives:

• Solve programming problems using modular, structured programming.
• Describe and use sequence, branching, and iteration (loops) logic structures.
• Construct arrays and menus.
• Employ exception handling techniques to recover from program errors

 

Programming Essentials
Game Time

You have a little free time on your hands and decide to create a simple game. Utilize the design tools that you have learned this week to design and program a very simple game. Examples: Movie Trivia, Guess a number between 1-10, Dice, etc. Note: Avoid games with lots of complex combinations like card games, i.e. poker, unless you desire a surmountable challenge. The real goal is for you to demonstrate the use of the design tool to reduce the amount of time spent coding and error fixing.

For this project:

• You will submit your python code in either the original .py file, or copied into a .txt file.
• You will also submit evidence of the design tool being used to organize the logic of your program. This can be a screenshot, flowchart, hand-drawn, pseudocode, etc. uploaded as a Word DOC or DOCX.
• A screenshot of your code having been executed (run).How to Take a Screenshot

Tips: Utilize your design tools!
