Python Challenges: More About Printing

Are you looking to expand your student’s knowledge of Python programming? These Python challenges give students 7 coding activities all focused on dealing with printing using the .format method and the f string operator. If you are familiar with my best-selling Python book “Python by Example: Learning to Program in 150 Challenges” by Nichola Lacey, these new challenges will expand on the skills taught and give your student’s more coding practice. Download this wonderful set of Python challenges today to see just how useful they are. What are you waiting for, they are FREE. WHO ARE THESE PYTHON CHALLENGES FOR? These challenges assume students have some basic knowledge of programming with Python and know how to use input, data types and a basic print statement. WHAT IS INCLUDED? This pack includes a single 3 page PDF which gives your students an explanation of using .format method and the f string operator in a print statement, example code and 7 programming challenges for them to work through. You also get another PDF which contains printed versions of the suggested solutions AND you get the Python solutions in Python programs so you can open them and look at the code using an IDLE. HOW CAN YOU USE THESE PYTHON CHALLENGES? These challenges are very flexible and can be used in a variety of ways. The main PDF includes an explanation, example code and a page of Python coding challenges. Students can work through them individually and the attractive PDF handout makes a perfect homework task. Alternatively you can print out the example code and page of Python challenges to give to your class as a starter, plenary or other in-class activity to enable your students to practise using their new skills. You may even want to isolate the programming challenges into individual tasks, rather than use them as a printed activity to use them in your lesson as small individual coding challenges. They are also ideal for you for quick finishers or to motivate higher ability students to keep them interested and learning a new skill whilst you help other students who need a little more reassurance of the basics. As you have a separate PDF of the answers you can give them to your class at a later date for them to mark themselves, although most students do not require this as they will discover if their code works when they run it and will debug if they find an error. You could also have the answer sheet ready as a help sheet for those who are stuck and need help. What are you waiting for? Grab your copy of these FREE flexible and highly useful Python challenges immediately. Your students will love them.
