AFTER doing the Preparation for this session, including its Before-the-Session quiz,
but BEFORE beginning the software development (coding) exercises in PyCharm,
do the following:
Check your own answers to the Before-the-Session quiz by watching the videos listed below.
Of course, do that Before-the-Session quiz BEFORE you watch the videos below that show a solution to it.
Check your answers carefully! They are KEY exercises that are critical to your understanding of how to implement a class.
If you have questions about any of the answers, GET HELP BEFORE PROCEEDING, by using Live Now! or other means.
The videos with the solutions are:
Solutions to Problems 1 through 5.
Solutions to Problems 6 and 7.
Solutions to Problems 8 and 9.
For your reference, here is paper-and-pencil copy of the above Answer Key to the Before-the-Session quiz for Session 11.
Turn in your answers to the Before-the-Session quiz in the usual way (on Moodle, via the item named Turn in your Before-the-Session quiz here.).
Open PyCharm. Do:
VCS ~ Update Project
to obtain the new in-class project if it is not already in your PyCharm.
Watch the “Follow me” videos listed below. As you watch each video:
Do the coding in PyCharm, following what you see on the video.
You can do the coding as the video does it or by reviewing the video afterwards (your choice).
The key is to UNDERSTAND what you are coding, not merely type what the video shows.
The “Follow me” videos for this session are:
You are ready to do the PyCharm exercises now. But remember:
For most problems, if you are still working on the problem after 5 (or at most 10) minutes on that problem:
We recommend that you do the coding when a meeting is open in the Live Now! channel of the CSSE 120 group in Microsoft Teams.
That way you can get INSTANT answers to your questions BEFORE you apply the concepts in the other modules in PyCharm.
