Logical reasoning in daily decisions in Intro to Computing - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to check if it is raining and you need an umbrella.

Intro to Computing

if is_raining [1]:
    print("Take an umbrella.")

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '!=' will check for not raining, which is opposite.

Using 'is None' checks for no value, not raining.

We check if is_raining is True to decide if we need an umbrella.

Complete the code to decide if you should carry a jacket based on temperature.

Intro to Computing

if temperature [1] 20:
    print("Carry a jacket.")

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A<

B==

C>

D>=

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '>' means carrying a jacket when it's warm.

Using '==' only checks for exactly 20 degrees.

If the temperature is less than 20 degrees, it's cold, so carry a jacket.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to decide if you should take a break based on tiredness.

Intro to Computing

if tiredness [1] 7:
    print("Take a break.")

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A>=

B=>

C<=

D==

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '=>' causes syntax error.

Using '<=' checks for less tiredness, opposite logic.

The correct operator to check if tiredness is greater than or equal to 7 is '>='.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a decision that checks if you should go outside based on weather and time.

Intro to Computing

if weather [1] "sunny" and time [2] 18:
    print("Go outside.")

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A==

B>

C<

D!=

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '!=' for weather means not sunny, opposite logic.

Using '>' for time means after 6 PM, opposite logic.

You go outside if the weather is exactly 'sunny' and the time is before 18 (6 PM).

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a dictionary comprehension that maps tasks to their priority if priority is above 3.

Intro to Computing

high_priority_tasks = [1]: [2] for [3] in tasks.items() if [2] > 3

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Atask

Bpriority

Dtask, priority

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing up keys and values.

Using 'tasks' as loop variable instead of 'task'.

The dictionary comprehension uses task as key, priority as value, and iterates over tasks.items().
