Learning Objective: Develop understanding of programming techniques used within Task 1



Recap
What is the CA about?
What is the program called we use to writ code?
What is the shortcut for running a program?

 Complete the code for Task 1








Red Task
Insert your completed and annotated code in to your portfolio (Word doc)

Amber Task
Insert the 3 tables and subheadings in to your portfolio.

Green Task
Complete the tables for your Task 1 code.



Use the sheet to help:

1. Use # to add comments into your code explaining how it works
2. Under the Solution Development heading add a subheading, Task 1 Code
3. Copy and paste your task 1 code in
4. Under the Programming Techniques add a sub heading Programming Techniques Used
5. Create the following table and then complete it:
Task Num
Technique Used
What does it do?
How I have used it?
1
print()
Displays things on the screen
I used it to display my menu and to show messages telling the user which option they have picked
1
if() / elif()


1
int()


1
input()


1
exit()



6. Under the Programming Techniques add a sub heading Data Structures Used
7. Create the following table and then complete it:
Task Num
Data Structure Name
Data Structure Type
Data Type Stored In it
Purpose
1
choice
Variable
Integer



8. Under the Testing and Evaluation heading add a sub heading Task 1 Test Plan
9. Create the following table and then complete it:
Test Number
User Input
Expected Outcome
Actual Outcome
Action Taken
1
None
Menu shows on screen


2
1
Tells users they have chosen to set generation 0 values

6





10. Underneath your Task 1 Test Plan add screenshots showing the results of each of your tests

Extension Task1:
What happens if your user types in a number that is not between 1 and 6?
Can you add to your code so that your menu can handle this?

Extension Task2:
What happens if your user types in something that is not a number at all?
Can you add to your code so that your menu can handle this?

Extension Task3:
Update your Programming Techniques Used table
Update your Data Structures Used table
Update your Task 1 Test Plan table



Update tracker.....
Where are you at?

Learning Objective: Understand the requirements of an NEA Consolidate learning of hardware and operating systems Starter: Exemplary NEA Document This is not full marks but can give you an idea of the work that is put into the NEA Main: Task 1 Complete an evaluation of your NEA project. 1. Comment on each subtask and how well you have solved the problem 2. Comment on any improvements you would make if you were to complete this again. Task 2 Work through Homework 14/15 to complete before next Monday Task 3 Work through Homework 16 to complete for the test

Learning Objective: Be able to show your understanding of basic programming using comments in your code. Be able to ensure your code is robust by using a test table. Starter: Open your NEA documents: - Evidence Document - Your Code - Programming slides of NEA Main: Task 1 1. Ensure you have created a full menu with all options, loops and selection (if). 2. Add comments to your code. 3. Screen shot the code of your main menu in to your evidence document. Task 2 1.  Complete slide 3 and 5 of the Programming slides for NEA; adding code for the first option of the menu. 2. Comment on this code. 3. Screenshot the code and place in your evidence document. Task 3 Have you tested your code? Did it run correctly? 1. Develop your testing table using your initial test plan. Test every aspect of your first 2 tasks. Plenary: What will be the next part of the NEA programming? What will you need to do for the next option?
