04: Python: Variables

pddring

This activity is designed to help you learn how to use python to write a program that uses and stores data in variables.

Use and store data in variables
Variables: Use and store data in variables

As well as learning how to debug syntax errors, so far we’ve looked at how to do input and output in python. The next step is to learn how to store the data that’s been input and use it as part of the output. That’s where variables come in handy.

Try it, debug it, extend it: Python tutorials

Over the next few weeks I’ll hopefully be publishing a series of 20 free interactive python tutorials for beginners. Here’s the link to the list of resources

Each activity has four sections:

Theory: what you need to know if you’re in a hurry

Try it: working code snippets that you can adapt and use

Debug it: code sabotaged with common mistakes that you can practise fixing

Extend it: open ended project ideas for your to apply what you’ve learnt.
