Lesson 3: Conditional Statements (if, elif, else)

Concept: Python can make decisions using if, elif, and else based on conditions.

age = 18
if age >= 18:
    print("You are an adult.")
else:
    print("You are a minor.")

Interactive Prompt:

number = int(input("Enter a number: "))
if number > 0:
    print("Positive")
elif number < 0:
    print("Negative")
else:
    print("Zero")

Quiz: What will this code print?

x = 10
if x < 5:
    print("Low")
elif x < 15:
    print("Medium")
else:
    print("High")

• A) Low
• B) Medium ✅
• C) High
• D) Error

Lesson 4: Loops – for and while

Concept: Loops help execute code multiple times efficiently.

for i in range(5):
    print("Iteration", i)

count = 0
while count < 5:
    print("Count is", count)
    count += 1

Interactive Prompt:

for num in range(1, 21):
    if num % 2 == 0:
        print(num)

Quiz: How many times does this loop run?

i = 0
while i < 3:
    print(i)
    i += 1

• A) 2
• B) 3 ✅
• C) 4
• D) Infinite

Lesson 5: Functions in Python

Concept: Functions let you reuse blocks of code.

def greet(name):
    return "Hello, " + name

print(greet("Darchums"))

Interactive Prompt:

def square(num):
    return num * num

print(square(4))

Quiz: What is the output?

def add(a, b=5):
    return a + b

print(add(3))

• A) 3
• B) 8 ✅
• C) Error
• D) 5

Lesson 6: Lists and List Methods

Concept: Lists can store multiple values, and Python offers many methods to work with them.

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
fruits.append("orange")
print(fruits)

Interactive Prompt:

colors = ["red", "blue", "green", "yellow", "black"]
colors.pop(2)
print(colors)

Quiz: What is the output?

nums = [1, 2, 3]
nums[1] = 10
print(nums)

• A) [1, 10, 3] ✅
• B) [10, 2, 3]
• C) Error
• D) [1, 2, 10]

Lesson 7: Dictionaries in Python

Concept: Dictionaries hold key-value pairs and are excellent for structured data.

person = {"name": "Alice", "age": 25}
print(person["name"])

Interactive Prompt:

profile = {
    "name": "Darchums",
    "age": 28,
    "language": "Python"
}
print("My name is", profile["name"])

Quiz: What does this code return?

d = {"a": 1, "b": 2}
print(d.get("c", 3))

• A) 3 ✅
• B) 1
• C) None
• D) Error
