• watch one way to truly generate random numbers

Review

• if ... then statements

Lesson

• go over how to generate a random number in Python

• go over "if ... then ... else", Chapter 3
  • Computer Based Problem Solving
• look at "Too Many Student" program below

Activity

• re-create the "Generate a Random Number" program, so you are conformable creating random numbers
• create, in your groups, GUI Design, Top-down, flowchart
• then write the code

Daily Assignment

• re-create the "Number Guessing Game" program from before
  • use an If ... Then ... Else, so the user is told if the number is correct or wrong
  • use the random number generator to generate a new random number every time the program is started over
    • the number to guess would, therefore, have to be a Global variable

Extra

• create the above program in a second language
