Python Variables Practice

Instructions

A variable is a name that stores a value. In Python you create one with the assignment operator =, for example score = 100. In this practice you will work with four data types:

• int (integer): a whole number with no decimal point, such as 15 or -7
• float: a number with a decimal point, such as 3.75 or 42.0
• str (string): text inside quotes, such as "Maria" or '12-34-56'
• bool (boolean): either True or False (capital first letter, no quotes)

How this works

1. Enter your first name, last name initial, and class period, then click Start Assignment. Your start time is recorded.
2. The assignment opens in a Python editor with three files (tabs). Fill in every orange dashed box.
3. Click ▶ Run to see what Python would print in the terminal. Run does not tell you if you matched the instructions, so check your work carefully.
4. When you finish all three tabs, click Submit for Score. Your end time is recorded and your score appears. Answers cannot be changed after submitting.
