Description
Starting Lab 7
-
Open a browser and log into Brightspace
-
On the left hand side under Labs tab, find lab6 material contained in lab7-students.pdf file
-
Download that file to the Desktop.
Before starting, always make sure you are running Python 3
This slide is applicable to all labs, exercises, assignments … etc
ALWAYS MAKE SURE FIRST that you are running Python 3.4 (3.5/3.5 is fine too)
That is, when you click on IDLE (or start python any other way) look at the first line that the Python shell displays. It should say Python 3.4 or 3.5 or 3.6 (and then some extra digits)
If you do not know how to do this, read the material provided with Lab 1. It explains it step by step
Task (to be completed at home)
I strongly encourage you to complete these two quizes at home. Leave the time in the lab for questions to TAs about quiz problems whose solution you do not understand.
Go to coursera webpage and log in.
1.Go to the following link to and complete the Quiz of Week 4. You will find the quiz at the bottom of the page
https://www.coursera.org/learn/learn-to-program/home/week/4
2.Go to the following link to and complete the Quiz of Week 5. You will find the quiz at the bottom of the page
https://www.coursera.org/learn/learn-to-program/home/week/5
In Week 5 quiz you do not need to answer last couple of questions about “files” as we did not cover that (yet).

• You can do each quiz more than once. |

Programming Exercises (the most important lab)
The following exercises are easily the most important exercises in this whole semester. Solving these problems (by yourself preferably) should greatly increase your understanding of computational problem solving and programming.
Do as many as possible (preferably all) of the following 13 programming exercises from your 3rd recommended textbook by Perkovic. 11 of 13 are mandatory for this lab (your choice which 11) — see the slides to come.
Introduction to Computing Using Python: An Application Development Focus, 2nd Edition, Ljubomir Perkovic
Sometimes the author uses a word “outputs”. By that he means “prints” First recall from the next 4 slides, list (and few string) functions and methods that you will need.
