Writing software with Python (10 minutes)

If you have never written software before:

• Visit https://www.online-python.com/
  • it will show you as an example the code for a function that adds items together.
• Play around with the code a bit, e.g.
  • Try using words instead of numbers as inputs. What happens and why?
  • Add a function that subtracts items rather than adding them. What happens now if you use words instead of numbers, and why?
  • What else can you do?

If you have experience in writing software:

• Buddy up with someone from the above group.
• Use the 4-eye principle (pair programming), to watch what they are doing and help them figure out what is going on and why.
• Try to be conscious in explaining what is important and what your buddy needs to know without overcomplicating matters or taking over the keyboard.
