(50 cards)
floor division
7//4 meaning that instead of it being 1.75, it discards the .75 and leaves it as 1 making the answer 1
exp(x)
e^x
prompt
at the bottom of the output (indicates that you can enter python instructions)
syntax error
some is wrong according to the rules of the language, and the error is detected before your program is actually run
sqrt(x)
square root of x
modules
what the python standard language is organized into
argument
any value the function needs to carry out its task - enclosed in parenthesis, multiple of these are separated by commas
standard language
considered part of the language and must be included with any python system
trunc(x)
truncates (shortens) floating-point value x to an integer
operators
symbols for arithmetic operations
integer
whole number without a fractional part
floating point number
when a fractional part is required of the integer
number literal
grouping a bunch of numbers together so you don't have to type it out every time
variables
store vlaue, a storage location in a comp program - each one holds a name and holds a value
primitive data type
provided by the language itself
comments
explanations for human readers of your code
computer program
tells a comp, in a min detail, the sequences of the steps that are needed to fulfill a task
CPU
locates and executes the program instructions: it carries out arithmetic operations such as additions, subtraction; gets data from external memory or devices and places processed data in storage
degrees(x)
convert x radians to _____ -> x*(180/pie)
assignment statement
place a value into a variable
radians(x)
convert x degrees to _____ -> x*(pie/180)
programming
the art of designing and implementing computer programs
library
a collection of code that has been written and translated by someone else, ready for you to use in your program
characters
letters, numbers, punctuation, spaces, and so on
compound statement
the header ended in a colon that spans multiple lines and ends with a statement block
data type
how the data is represented in the computer and what operations can be performed on that data
VM
separate program that is similar to the CPU of a comp
modulus
getting the remainder, make it 7%4
string
sequence of characters
python shell
interface for working in interactive mode
return
the answer you get after typing out your code in the space provided giving you the value that represents your identifier round(7.625) --> 8 round(7.625, 2) --> 7.63
cos(x)
the cosine of x in radians
pseudocode
the informal language a comp can not understand but is easier for us to understand
statement block
a group of one or more statements, all of which are indented into the same indention level
length
the amount of characters in the string
compiler
reads the file containing your source code and translates the instructions in to byte code
string
a sequence of characters enclosed in quotation marks
sin(x)
the sine of x in radians
tan(x)
the tangent of x in radians
string literal
grouping a bunch of words together (don't have to type it out every time)
expression
combination of variables, literals, operators, and parentheses
reserved words
"if" or "class" you can't use these to name a variable because these are already have certain names built into python
hardware
the physical computer and peripheral devices
byte code
very simple instructions understood by the VM
software
the programs that computer executes
function
a collection of programming instructions that carry out a particular task
$%.2f
placeholder including two decimal places
source code
python instructions that you wrote
exception
runtime error, logic error
exponents
2**a
