Python Projects for Kids

By: Jessica Ingrassellino

Overview of this book

Kids are always the most fast-paced and enthusiastic learners, and are naturally willing to build stuff that looks like magic at the end (when it works!). Programming can be one such magic. Being able to write a program that works helps them feel they've really achieved something. Kids today are very tech-savvy and cannot wait to enter the fast-paced digital world. Because Python is one of the most popular languages and has a syntax that is quite simple to understand, even kids are eager to use it as a stepping stone to learning programming languages. This book will cover projects that are simple and fun, and teach kids how to write Python code that works. The book will teach the basics of Python programming, installation, and so on and then will move on to projects. A total of three projects, with each and every step explained carefully, without any assumption of previous experience.

Ending the game


Once we are tired of playing the game, we can answer the question Do you want to play again? Type YES or NO: with NO. Once we do this, you will notice that game_on = False appears in the code to stop the while loop. As soon as the loop stops, the last line of code is executed:

This line of code prints out the scores of each player only AFTER the game loop is completed. This line of code is outside of the for loop and the game loop. If you only ran the game once, the highest score could only be one. However, if you ran the game five or ten times, then your high scores could be as high as five or ten, depending on how many items each player guessed correctly.
