The Formula Solver
Description

In this lesson, students will get an overview of the project and start learning about how to write arithmetic expressions, assign values to variables, and call the print function in Python.

Objective

Students will be able to…

  • Define the goal of the project.
  • Describe what Python is and where it is used.
  • Write basic print() functions.
  • Concatenate strings in the print() function.
  • Write basic math calculations.
  • Define what a variable is.
  • Use different types of variables in their programs.
Description

In this lesson, students learn how to get input from the user using the input() function. By default, the input from the user is read as a string. Students will convert input values into a numerical data type (e.g. int) to perform arithmetic operations and then convert calculations into a string in order to print the results.

Objective

Students will be able to?

  • get input from the user using the input() function
  • convert input values into the appropriate data type using the int() or float() functions.
