CIS 189 - Python

Task 1:    Understand the concept of a method and what all methods must contain.  (A header or definition, an open curly bracket, a body, and a closing curly bracket.)
Task 2:    Identify the access modifier for a method. (public, private, friendly, protected, private protected, or static)

Outcome 2:  Create programs that use the computer as a computational tool.

Task 1:    Write classes containing methods to complete computations.
Task 2:    Declare objects in a class.
Task 3:    Determine the scope of a variable within a block.
Task 4:    Write programs which overload a method.
Task 5:    Write programs that send arguments to a constructor method.
Task 6:    Incorporate pre-written methods into a program.

Outcome 3:  Create programs with Python to solve real world problems.

Task 1:    Write methods with no arguments
Task 2:    Write methods with a single argument
Task 3:    Write methods that require multiple arguments
Task 4:    Write methods that return values.
Task 5:    Write declarations for tuples.
Task 5:    Write routines to load tuples with data.
Task 6:    Write routines to print the content of tuples.
Task 7:    Write routines to search tuples for elements that satisfy specific conditions.
Task 8:    Write routines to process data in a two-dimensional tuples.
Task 9:    Write routines that pass tuples to methods
Task 10:    Write declarations for strings.

Outcome 4:  Persevere through productive struggle by utilizing resources to debug errors and finding statements to meet specific needs.

Task 1:    Explain what resources are available on the Internet to assist in fixing programming errors.
Task 2:    Explain what resources are available on the Internet to find programming statements to meet specific needs.
Task 3:    Adapt previous programming statements to meet the needs of the current programming task.
Task 4:    Work collaboratively with classmates and the developer community to solve programming problems.

Outcome 5:  Use Python statements including selection statements, and loop control statements.

Task 1:  Write a class header for a program.
Task 2:  Write a method header for a program.
Task 3:  Write assignment statements satisfying given conditions.
Task 4:  Write assignment statements using arithmetic operators.
Task 5:  Write statements utilizing the six comparison operators.
Task 6:     Write simple selection statements to perform specific tasks.
Task 7:     Write selection statements that contain compound actions.
Task 8:     Write multiple-alternative structures using nested if - else statements.
Task 9:     Write multiple-alternative structures using switch statements.
Task 10:  Use ordinary assignment statements to provide for counting or accumulating.
Task 11:  Use increment/decrement operators for counters and compound assignment operators for accumulators.
Task 12:  Write programs that use counter-controlled loops.
Task 13:  Write programs that use sentinel-controlled loops.
Task 14:  Write programs that use end-of-file-controlled loops.
Task 15:  Write programs that contain nested loops.
