1 Overview of this Unit.

This unit is designed for you to work towards the following strands of your progress ladder:

Programming & Development

  • Develop understanding that programming bridges the gap between algorithmic solutions and computers (automation).
  • Developing practical skills, including using program library pygame when programming, using a range of operators and expressions e.g. Boolean, and applies them in the context of program control.
  • Developing understanding the difference between, and appropriately uses if and if-then and else statement.
  • Developing skills in using selections (if statements) and loops (while and for loops) to control the flow of a program.

Key Words and Key Concepts

  • pyGame Python library for game developement
  • selection in programming, i.e. if, if-elif-else in Python
  • repeatition in programming, i.e. for loops and while loops in Python
