  6. Advice for the Tests • These things can make the difference of whether you pass or fail this class when studying • Go through each class days notes and example programs on the website • Practice coding over and over by going through your labs!!! This is the only way to really learn. • Review vocabulary and concepts by reading the book!!

  7. Again… • The only way you can become comfortable with a toolset is to practice • Understanding what a power drill does will not help you much if you don’t practice using it • It’s the same for code • Practicing coding will make you more familiar with the coding structures necessary to code more quickly • Patterns will emerge, it will become easier

  8. Review Wrap-Up • Find a Letter • Error Checking • Nested Loops • DeMorgan’s Law • Using and/or/not correctly

  9. 4.1 Find a Letter river = 'Mississippi' target = input('Input character to find: ') found = False for index in range(len(river)): #for each index if river[index] == target: #check print( "Letter found at index: ", index ) found = True break # stop searching if (found == False) print( 'Letter',target,'not found in',river)
