Exercises

Create a folder called Python on your H drive, you will save all your exercises there.
Use Thonny for writing your code.

Exercise 1

Save your code in your Python folder and call it exercise1.

Define a function called multiplication that takes two numbers as parameters and returns the multiplication of those two numbers.

Then write a program:

Asking two numbers to the user.
Calling the function multiplication using the input of the user as parameters and saving the returned value in a variable result.
Printing the value from the variable result.

Help

Remember the syntax of a function:
🐍 Python Script
```
def name(parameters_seperated_by_comma):
    instructions
    return something
```
Here the name is multiplication, the parameters are two numbers (for example a and b), the instructions are the multiplication of those two numbers (for example c = a * b) and it should return the result (for example c).
Ask two numbers to the user using the input function twice: number = int(input("question"))
Call the multiplication function using the number received by the user as parameters: multiplication(number1, number2)
Don't forget to save the returned value (that will be replacing multiplication(number1,number2)) in a variable result: result = multiplication(number1, number2)
Print the result: print(result)

Answer

🐍 Python Script

def multiplication(a,b):
    c = a * b
    return c

number1 = int(input("Give me a first number: "))
number2 = int(input("Give me a second number: "))

result = multiplication(number1, number2)
print(result)

Exercise 2

Save your code in your Python folder and call it exercise2.

Define a function called draw that will draw a specific structure based on its parameter.

For example, if the parameter of your function is 4, the output should be:

📋 Output

>>> %Run exercise2.py
*
**
***
****
>>>

If the parameter of your function is 2, it should print:

📋 Output

>>> %Run exercise2.py
*
**
>>>

Then, write a program:

Asking the user how big he wants the drawing.
Calling the function draw using the input of the user.

Help

Define a function draw with one parameter:

🐍 Python Script

def name(parameter):

Create a loop inside the draw function and at each iteration, it should print the right number of * (check here how to create a for loop with the range function).
Ask a number to the user using the input function: number = int(input("question")).
Call the draw function: draw(number).

Exercise 3

Save your code in your Python folder and call it exercise3.

Define a function two_equals(a,b,c) that receives three numbers in parameters. It should return the boolean value True if at least two of those numbers have the same value, False if not.

Then, write a program reading three integers x, y, z as input and showing the results of executing the function two_equals(x,y,z).

Exercise 4

Save your code in your Python folder and call it exercise4.

Define a function divisible(a,b) that receives two numbers in parameters. It should return the boolean value True if a is divisible by b, False if it is not.

Then, write a program reading two integers x, y as input and showing the results of executing the function divisible(x,y).

Help

To check if one number is divisible by another number, we use the modulus operator %.

The modulus operation finds the remainder after Euclidian division of one number by another.

If there is no remainder, it is divisible.

🐍 Python Script

if a % b == 0:
    print("a is divisible by b")
else:
    print("a is not divisible by b")
