Instructions:

For each of the following videos or reading:

• Watch the video (or read the reading), and as you do so,
• do the associated quiz in Moodle.

Videos and Reading:

1. The   Wait Until Event Pattern   and   while True:   Loops
   • Video [7:34 minutes]

   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.

2. Formatting strings (to make them look pretty, or like you want them to look) — basic idea

   To get you started, read this explanation of the basic idea of the format method.

3. Formatting strings — details

   Optional reading: From The Python 3 Tutorial, read ONLY the following sections of the chapter on Formatted Output:

   • Three Ways for a Nicer Output
   • The Pythonic Way: The string method “format”
     • But just SKIM over the details,knowing that you can return to them for reference as needed.

   Skip the section titled The Old Way or the non-existing printf and sprintf. Of course, you are welcome to read that section, but it shows an older way to format strings that is no longer recommended for Python.
