Session 17 Preparation — Videos, Reading and Quizzes

Quiz

Go to Moodle to find the Quiz for this Preparation.

Do the quiz as you watch the videos and do the reading. The quiz follows the same order as the videos/reading do.

You can access the videos from here or from Moodle; they both point to the same place.

Videos and Reading:

All of the following are required except items labeled Optional are, well, optional (i.e., things that may be interesting but do not directly pertain to your success in this course).

  1. The   Wait Until Event Pattern   and   while True:   Loops

    Note: WHILE loops are traditionally introduced in the form:

    while some-condition:
        do-stuff

    We will instead use the less common form:

    while True:
        do-stuff-here-if-you-want
        if some-condition:
            break
        do-stuff-here-if-you-want

    See the video for details.
