with some chapter 2 sprinkled in

1. What is the difference between the following Python statements? What happens with each and why?

print ('hello')
print (hello)

2. Consider the following code statement:

average = 1000* hits/atbats

a. How do you say the statement in English?

b. Circle and label the i) variables ii) literal value iii) expression iv) assignment statement

c. What is the type of 1000 in the statement? What is the type of the expression?

3. Consider the following lines in a Python program:

hits =200
atbats =500
average=hits/atbats
print average

a. What gets printed out?

b. Now modify the third line so it reads:

average=float(hits)/atbats

Now what gets printed out? Explain what the issue was and why the 'float' fixed it.

4. For an interest rate program, should the user enter the interest rate as a percentage (e.g., 10) or as a decimal (.1)?

5. Fill out the following table:

principal	interestRate	yearOneInterest	principalAfterOneYear	yearTwoInterest	principalAfterTwoYears
1000	10

What assignment statement wold correctly set yearOneInterest? principalAfterOneYear?

6. Do you need all the variables in the table shown above, e.g., yearOneInterest, yearTwoInterest? How could you reduce the number of variables? What would the table look like?
