Task 1 – Shape Program

Variables: User will input


values into the variables for
the following:
• Shape
• Number of steps per each side
Programming

• The number of sides


• Pen and Fill colour

The angle will be worked out


automatically by dividing 360
by the number of sides.

Print statements will print


user input. (+ joins variables)

1. Enter the script shown to the left.


2. Run the program.
The program will create any shape using a
for loop based on your input.
Task 2 – Shape Program (IF Condition)

IF Condition:

If the user has


entered less than 100
steps per each side
Programming

then the outline of


the shape will be red
and the fill will be
green.

If the steps per each


side is not less than
100 then the outline
of the shape will be
black and the fill will
be yellow.
Task 3 – Shape Program (Nested Conditions)

Nested Condition:

If the sides is equal (==) to 3


the Pen Colour will be Orange
and the Fill Colour will be
Programming

Purple.

If the sides is equal (==) to 4


the Pen Colour will be Blue
and the Fill Colour will be
gold.

If the sides is equal (==) to 5


the Pen Colour will be Red
and the Fill Colour will be
Green.

Else:

Pen Colour will be Black and


the Fill Colour will be Yellow.
Task 4 – Extension

Create your own program using the Python


Turtle. You must include the following:
Programming

• Variables – User to be prompted to enter


their answers
• Print Statements
• IF or Nested Conditions
• For Loops
Plenary – Refer to the Lesson Objectives
