| input |
DISPLAY(expression) |
print(expression, end=” “) |
Displays the value of expression, followed by a space. Python defaults to newline, thus the end=” “ |
| output |
a ← INPUT() |
a = input(prompt) |
Accepts a value from the user and returns it to the variable a |
| selection |
IF (expression) |
if expression: |
run commands in the code block associated with the selection |
| iteration expression |
a ← expression REPEAT UNTIL (expression) |
while expression: |
Repeat commands in the code block associated withe the iteration while expression is true |
| iteration n times |
REPEAT n TIMES |
for i in range(n): |
Repeat commands in the code block associated withe the iteration n times |
| list assignment |
list ← [expression1, expression2, expression3] |
list = [expression1, expression2, expression3] |
Assigns 3 values to list, value can be literal or expressions |
| first index in list |
list[1] |
list[0] |
Access the 1st element in the list[]. FYI, most programming languages start at zero |
| last index in list |
list[LENGTH(list)] |
list[len(list) - 1] |
Access the last element in the list[]. If you start at zero, last element is length - 1. |
| define procedure |
PROCEDURE name (parameter) |
def name(parameter): |
Create a procedure containing a sequence of programming instructions |
| expression equals |
a = b |
a == b |
Evaluate if assigned value of a equals assigned value of b |
| expression does not equal |
a ≠ b |
a != b |
Evaluate if assigned value of a is NOT equal to assigned value of b |
