modulus

turtle.forward(50)

moves a turtle forward 50 units

turtle.dot()

places a dot on the screen

variable

Which mathematical operator is used to raise five to the second power in Python?

**

+, -, *, /

Python operators that perform mathematical operations.

Python

A modern programming language named after Monty Python

What will the statement 'for num in range(2, 9, 2)' produce

2, 4, 6, 8

int

A Python data type that holds positive and negative whole numbers

float

A Python data type which stores floating-point numbers. Floating-point numbers are stored internally in two parts: a base and an exponent. When printed in the standard format, they look like decimal numbers

block

A group of consecutive statements with the same indentation.

algorithm

A set of specific steps for solving a category of problems

Statement:

A single line of Python code.

for loops

"for x in list_name" ... applies something to every item in a list

True/False: According to the behavior of integer division, when an integer is divided by an integer, the result will be a float.

False

True/False: Python formats all floating-point numbers to two decimal places when outputting using the print statement.

False

modulus operator

%, works on integers (and integer expressions) and gives the remainder when the first number is divided by the second

for num in range(4):

0, 1, 2, 3

If value1 is 2.0 and value2 is 12, what is the output of the following command? print(value1 * value2)

24.0

After the execution of the following statement, the variable price will reference the value _____. price = int(68.549)

68

When applying the .3f formatting specifier to the following number, 76.15854, the result is _______________.

76.159

function

A named sequence of statements that performs some useful operation.

integer division

I'm ready to begin

PEMDAS

Order of operations that Python follows

What symbol is used to mark the beginning and end of a string?

Quotation

iteration

To repeat a section of code.

evaluate

To simplify an expression by performing the operations in order to yield a single value.

float

indentations in python

mean that there is a code block

operators

special tokens that represent computations like addition, multiplication and division

for

the Python keyword that proceeds a block of code to loop through a series of statements.
