Activity Guide - Conditionals Make - Unit 4 Lesson 8

The document provides instructions for a group project to create an app that calculates ticket prices based on different conditions. It includes 4 steps: 1) Try out sample inputs, 2) Plan the variables and conditional logic, 3) Write the code, and 4) Submit. The group is asked to create variables to store day, age, discount code, and price. They must then use conditional logic like if/else statements to determine the price based on rules for weekends, weekdays, ages, and a discount code. Flowcharts and pseudocode are used to plan the logic before writing the code.

Activity Guide - Conditionals Make - 20 point project


Step 1 - Try the app
Try making tickets for different combinations of inputs.
● Make a ticket for a weekend.
● Make a ticket for a weekday (Monday - Friday) and someone 18 or
younger.
● Try the discount code "FREEFRIDAY" on a Friday.
●
Write the names of your partners (you need at least 1, max 3):
Discuss with a Partner(s)
● What variables would you need to program this app?
● Where does this app use conditionals (if-statements)?

Step 2 - Plan
Variables: Fill in the table below for each variable you'll need to create.
Variable Name What the Variable Stores

Day The day of the week.

Age The age of the ticket buyer.

Discount code It stores the discount code the user inputs.

Price The cost of the ticket.

Conditionals: Draw a flowchart or create pseudocode that follows the rules below. There's more than one way to do it.
Use the table to make sure that your flowchart works for different combinations of age, day, and discount code.

● On the weekends ("Saturday" and "Sunday") everyone pays full price of $10
● On weekdays (Monday through Friday) if you are 18 years or younger you pay $5.
● If you use the discount code "FREEFRIDAY" on a Friday you get in for $0. No other discount codes will work
and the code only works on Fridays.

Age Day Discount Code Price

18 Monday none $5

18 Saturday none $10

50 Monday none $10

50 Saturday none $10

18 Tuesday FREEFRIDAY $5

50 Friday FREEFRIDAY $0

18 Friday FREE $5

50 Friday FREE $10

Unit 4 Lesson 8

Create your pseudocode/flowchart here. You are welcome to copy a picture of written work.

We are supposed to add comments to the app


In the console log???

Step 3 - Write Your Code


● Write the code for the app, using your plan above and the comments provided in Code Studio to help
● Step You Can Follow
○ Create all the variables from your table above.
○ Give your variables a starting value using the assignment operator (=)
○ Create an event handler (onEvent) for the "calculate_button"
○ Inside the event handler start writing code for your conditional using your flowchart
○ Test your code as you go using the table below. At the end it should work for every combination of
outputs in the table on the first page.
○ Use your debugging skills to identify unexpected behavior and fix your program
○ Comment your code as you go, explaining what each event handler does
● Check the Help & Tips tab for ideas about Programming Patterns you can use
● Extension Ideas
○ Add another discount code for a different day of the week or age range
○ Make guests 65 and older always pay $5 unless they use a discount code

Step 4 - Submit
There is no retake opportunity for this project. Before you submit, check the rubric below to make sure your program
meets the requirements of the task.
