Day 4

these two programs give me different outputs, why? 

total = 0
for num in range (101):
   total = total + num
   print (total)


total = 0
for num in range (101):
   total = total + num
print (total)

for loop

this is not like a while loop



Range (start, end, step)


Standard library.
Math
Random, etc

import Statement

import module

import random

import sys

use pip to import third party modules

Day three Section 2

# this is a comment


Functions are like mini programs ... input() for example is a function, functions have arugments that is the () this is a function because python doesnt do the memory management... that is all handled by the language, python is written in C so  C is what does the memory management and python just knows input()

I can write my own functions.

int(), str(),float() convert values' data type


Flow control statements.




Boolean values - True, False need to be capitalized.


comparison vales
Operator Meaning
== Equal to NOT = which is assignment dont get these confused
!= Not equal to
< Less than
> Greater than
<= Less than or equal to
>= Great than or equal to


Int == str
False

Truthy Falsey
bool()




Boolean operators

and
or
not


Flow control statements
If, Else and Elif statements

Lecture 2: Basic Terminology

Operator	Operation	Example	Evaluates to...
**	Exponent	2 ** 3	8
%	Modulus/remainder	22 % 8	6
//	Integer division/floored quotient	22 // 8	2
/	Division	22 / 8	2.75
*	Multiplication	3 * 5	15
-	Subtraction	5 - 2	3
+	Addition	2 + 2	4

Lecture 3 Writing our first program.




Lecture 3 really slowed me down.




This line

• print('You will be ' + str(int(myAge) + 1) + ' in a year.')

My age is a string, then it is turned into an interger... then one is added, then it is turned back into a string to concatenate to be 'you will be (myage +1) in a year.
Looking forward to day three.
