Introduction: Zeen

Hello, my name is zeen and today we will be presenting big idea 3. Our topics include 2d arrays, iteration, and lists and dictionaries.

Objectives

Master the concepts of iteration, list, 2d-arrays, Dictionaries, and APIs

Vocab

Here is some vocab during the lesson, you should be familar with them already no need for me to read these out, now I will pass the speaking off to Kush

  • Iteration: A process that repates itself
  • Array: Sometimes called a list, can keep strings and intergers inside it
  • 2D-Array: A collection of data elements arranged in a grid-like structure with rows and columns
  • Mutable: the ability to be changed or modified
  • Key: A Singular identifier that is associated with a certin value

1: 2D Array

Tic Tac Toe:Kush Sirohi

  • What are some examples of 2d Arrays
  • Image Pixels: An image can be represented as a 2D array of pixels, where each pixel's color values are stored as individual elements in the array.
  • What is a modern day game that could be classified as a 2D array
  • Sudoku
  • Crossword
array = ["Hello", "Hi", "Whats up"]
twoDArray = [["Name", "ID", "Age"], ["Kush", "1", "16"], ["Finn", "2", "16"]]

print(f"This is a normal array: {array}")

print("This is a 2D array")
for row in twoDArray:
    print(row)
This is a normal array: ['Hello', 'Hi', 'Whats up']
This is a 2D array
['Name', 'ID', 'Age']
['Kush', '1', '16']
['Finn', '2', '16']

How I used 2D Arrays (game example)

  • Describe a 2D array in your own words
  • A 2D array is a grid-like data structure with rows and columns that stores elements accessed by two indices.
board = [[' ', ' ', ' '],
         [' ', ' ', ' '],
         [' ', ' ', ' ']]
         
# Function to print the current state of the game board
def print_board():
    print("   0   1   2")
    for i in range(3):
        print(i, end='  ')
        for j in range(3):
            print(board[i][j], end=' ')
        print()

# Function to check if a player has won the game
def check_win(player):
    # Check rows for a win
    for i in range(3):
        if board[i][0] == player and board[i][1] == player and board[i][2] == player:
            return True
    # Check columns for a win
    for j in range(3):
        if board[0][j] == player and board[1][j] == player and board[2][j] == player:
            return True
    # Check diagonals for a win
    if board[0][0] == player and board[1][1] == player and board[2][2] == player:
        return True
    if board[0][2] == player and board[1][1] == player and board[2][0] == player:
        return True
    # If no win condition is met, return False
    return False

# Function to check if the game is a tie
def check_tie():
    for i in range(3):
        for j in range(3):
            if board[i][j] == ' ':
                return False
    return True

# Function to play the game
def play_game():
    # Initialize player and turn counter
    player = 'X'
    turns = 0
    # Loop until the game is over
    while True:
        # Print the current state of the board
        print_board()
        # Get the player’s move
        row = int(input(f"{player}'s turn. Enter row (0-2): "))
        col = int(input(f"{player}'s turn. Enter column (0-2): "))
        # Check if the move is valid
        if board[row][col] == ' ':
            board[row][col] = player
            turns += 1
            # Check if the player has won
            if check_win(player):
                print_board()
                print(f"{player} wins!")
                return
            # Check if the game is a tie
            if check_tie():
                print_board()
                print("It's a tie!")
                return
            # Switch players
            player = 'O' if player == 'X' else 'X'
        else:
            print("That space is already taken. Try again.")

2: Iteration

Robot Game:Finn Carpenter- What is the defenition of iteration in your own words

  • Iteration is a process of repeating a set of instructions or a procedure multiple times to achieve a desired outcome or to solve a problem. It involves the use of a loop, where a block of code is executed repeatedly until a certain condition is met or until a specified number of iterations have been completed.
times = 0
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

## Loops
for i in range(5):
    print("hi")


while times <= 5:
    print("hello")
    times = times + 1

## Function with a parameters
def print_numbers(x):
    for num in x:
        print(num)

print_numbers(numbers)
hi
hi
hi
hi
hi
hello
hello
hello
hello
hello
hello
1
2
3
4
5

Iteration Game

  • Link to the game
  • Play the levels (only play the first 2 in class)
  • Explain how the game relates to itertation
  • This game relates to iteration because in this game the steps are repeated until a condition is met which is getting the robot to the final spot

How I used iteration (game example)

  • What parts of the code use iteration
  • for loop
function run() {
    // Read input values from the HTML document and convert them to integers.
    UPinput = parseInt(document.getElementById("up").value);
    DOWNinput = parseInt(document.getElementById("down").value);
    LEFTinput = parseInt(document.getElementById("left").value);
    RIGHTinput = parseInt(document.getElementById("right").value);
    looper = parseInt(document.getElementById("loop").value);

    runner.style.opacity = 0;
    

    // Create an array to hold the movements.
    let movements = [];

    // Push 'up' movements to the array.
    for (let l = 0; l < looper; l++) {
        for (let k = 0; k < UPinput; k++) {
            movements.push(up);
        }

        // Push 'down' movements to the array.
        for (let i = 0; i < DOWNinput; i++) {
            movements.push(down);
        }

        // Push 'left' movements to the array.
        for (let a = 0; a < LEFTinput; a++) {
            movements.push(left);
        }

        // Push 'right' movements to the array.
        for (let c = 0; c < RIGHTinput; c++) {
            movements.push(right);
        }
    }


    // Set the initial index to 0 and execute each movement in sequence with a delay of 800 milliseconds.
    let index = 0;
    let intervalId = setInterval(() => {
        // If the end of the movements array has been reached, stop executing movements.
        if (index >= movements.length) {
            clearInterval(intervalId);
            win(); // Call the win function.
            return;
        }
        movements[index](); // Execute the movement at the current index.
        index++; // Increment the index.
    }, 800);
}

3: List and Dictionaries

Scramble Game:Edwin

List = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Dict = {
    1: "Hi",
    2: "Hello",
    3: "Whats Up"
}

# Why Do I call 0 for the first thing in a list, but 1 for Dict
#

print(List[0])
print(Dict[1])
1
Hi

How I used a dictonary to make a game

Memory Game:James- Link

  • Code

How I used List to make a game

  • Explain which parts of the code use lists
  • word_list is a list
  • Explain what list manipulation is happening in that part
  • the word list is manipulated where a random word is chosen and then the function sample, is run on the random word
import random

word_list = ["python", "computer", "programming", "algorithm", "database", "function", "variable", "loop", "iteration", "array", "mutable", "insertion", "deletion", "key", "API"]

word = random.choice(word_list)

scrambled_word = "".join(random.sample(word, len(word)))

print(f"Unscramble the following Computer Science Word: {scrambled_word}")

hints = 1
guesses = 1
guess = ""

while guess != word and guesses <= 4:
    guess = input("What's the unscrambled word? ").lower()
    if guess != word:
        print("Sorry, that's not the word. Try again!")
        if guesses == 1:
            guesses += 1
        elif guesses == 2:
            print(f"Hint 1: The first letter of the word is '{word[0]}'")
            guesses += 1
        elif guesses == 3:
            print(f"Hint 2: The second letter of the word is '{word[1]}'")
            guesses += 1
        else:
            print(f"All 4 Guesses have been used, you didn't unscramble the word, the word was {word}")
            guesses += 1
    else:
        print("Congratulations, you unscrambled the word!")
Unscramble the following Computer Science Word: aaryr
Congratulations, you unscrambled the word!

Hacks: Your Score/1

General 0.3

num_terms = int(input("How many terms of the Fibonacci sequence would you like to generate? "))

# Initialize the sequence with the first two terms
fib_sequence = [0, 1]

# Generate the rest of the sequence using iteration
while len(fib_sequence) < num_terms:
    next_num = fib_sequence[-1] + fib_sequence[-2]
    fib_sequence.append(next_num)

# Print the sequence
print("The Fibonacci sequence up to the", num_terms, "term(s) is:")
for num in fib_sequence:
    print(num)
The Fibonacci sequence up to the 5 term(s) is:
0
1
1
2
3

2D array 0.2 (can get up to 0.23)

  • Explain how the tic tac toe game works

  • Each player takes turns placing their symbol (X or O) on the grid until one player gets three of their symbols in a row, either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. If all the spaces on the grid are filled and no player has won, the game ends in a tie.

  • Give 3 Examples of games that can be made from 2D arrays

  • sudoku

  • connect 4
  • cross word

List and Dictionaries 0.2 (can get up to 0.23)

  • Explain the differences between Lists and Dictionaries

  • Lists are ordered collections of items, where each item is identified by an index starting from 0.

  • Dictionaries, on the other hand, are unordered collections of key-value pairs, where each value is associated with a unique key.

  • Make a code block that manipulates either a list or a dictionary

  • this code uses the split function to create a dictionary that counts the number of words in a sentence

sentence = input("Please input a sentence")

# Split the sentence into words
words = sentence.split()

# Define an empty dictionary to store the word frequencies
word_freq = {}

# Loop over each word in the sentence and update the word frequency
for word in words:
    if word in word_freq:
        word_freq[word] += 1
    else:
        word_freq[word] = 1

# Print the word frequencies
print("Word frequencies:")
for word, freq in word_freq.items():
    print(word, ":", freq)
Word frequencies:
hello : 2
my : 1
name : 1
is : 1
grace. : 1
How : 1
are : 1
you. : 1
