Practice 1

Create a program that asks the user to enter their name and their age. Print out a message
addressed to them that tells them the year that they will turn 100 years old.

Concepts for this practice:

 Getting user input


 Manipulating strings

Practice 2

Take a list, say for example this one:


a = [1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89]

And write a program that prints out all the elements of the list that are less than 20.

Concepts for this practice:

 Lists
 More conditionals (if statements)

Practice 3

Ask the user for a string and print out whether this string is a palindrome or not.
(A palindrome is a string that reads the same forwards and backwards.)

Concepts for this practice:

 List indexing
 Strings are lists
Practice 4

Make a two-player Rock-Paper-Scissors game. (Hint: Ask for player plays (using input), compare
them, print out a message of congratulations to the winner, and ask if the players want to start
a new game)

Concepts for this practice:

 While loops
 Infinite loops
 Break statements

Practice 5

Write a program (function!) that takes a list and returns a new list that contains all the
elements of the first list minus all the duplicates.

Concepts for this practice:

 Functions
