Pig Dice Game: Functions & Subprograms Worksheet
Students will master functions, parameters, return values, scope and trace tables - all through building a complete two-player dice game.
This interactive HTML worksheet turns programming theory into a hands on coding project. Students work through 6 progressive sections, earning points as they go:
- Functions & return - def, return, DRY principle
- Parameters vs arguments - passing data into functions
- Trace tables - step by step variable tracking
- Full interactive simulator - play Pig Dice against a friend
- Scope & debugging - local vs global variables, spotting common errors
- Write your own functions - display_scores() coding task
Why this works:
- Zero setup - opens in any browser
- Self marking Questions, fill in blanks, and trace tables
- Built n dice simulator lets students see the code in action
- Examples and model answers - unlock after students write their own
- Dark/light mode toggle
Perfect for:
Cover lessons, homework, revision, or independent study. Students learn by doing - not just reading.
