Tips for Python 3

FAQ

1. Q: Difference between Python 2 and Python 3.
   A: For example,
   1. print vs. print()
   2. 5/2
   3. long int
   4. Unicode
   5. urllib2
   6. need to invoke random.seed()

Code Writing

1. Draw a flowchart or write a pseudo code to illustrate the basic idea
   
2. Prepare a test case so that you will verify when your code is complete.
3. Keyin your code and check it is correct or not.
4. If the outcome differs from what you expect, ask yourself why.

How will your programming assignments be evaluated

• Correctness (60%)
• Readability (25%)
  • Comments (10%)
  • Variable Naming (10%)
  • Indentation (5%)
• User Friendly (10%)
  • Exception Handling (5%)
  • Screen Layout (5%)
• Skill (5%)
  • For example, you can also write down 81 "print" instructions to print out the 9x9 multiplication table, but using the loop construct certainly demonstrates better skill in programming.
  • Another example is using multiple "if" statements vs. "switch".
