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

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.....
