2) Learned how to store a string in a variable;

3) Learned how to concatenate strings;

4) Learned how to concatenate strings with variables values;

5) Leaned string formatting.

8 Chapter Four Test

1. What is a string?

1) A string is a line that goes through the code.

2) A string is text data enclosed in quotes.

3) A string is an integer formatted value.

4) A string is a float formatted value.

2. How do we create a string?

1) We write a text and enclose it in curly braces.

2) We write a text and enclose it in parentheses.

3) We write a text and enclose it and enclose it in quotes.

3. Arrange the code so that you get a variable with a value as a string. And then display the value of the variable on the screen.


(message)

message

"Hello, John Doe!"

print

CHAPTER FIVE: BOOLEANS

1 Comparison Operators

When we compare numbers to each other, we usually use the symbols like > (greater), < (less), = (equal), and so on. They work in Python too. And here's how they look:


Greater >

Less <

Equal ==

Not equal !=

Greater than or equal > =

Less than or equal <=


As you noticed, instead of the equal sign =, we need to use the double equal sign ==.

We need the double equal sign so that Python doesn't think we are trying to create a variable.

These symbols are called comparison operators in Python. And we need them to let our program compare different data, for instance: numbers, strings, variables, etc.

2 True or False

Boolean logic has Boolean values: True and False: True – when the condition is true. False – when the condition is false. Let's play! I will compare numbers, and you will answer in your head – True if it is true, or False if it is false. Let's go!


2 > 4

10 < 20

3 == 3

5 != 7


Now, let's check yourself. Run the console and hit the REPL button. Then, input the above comparisons into the input field, one by one, and hit enter. If your comparison is correct, the program will respond: True. If not, then False. Let's see how the examples above look in the console:



See that? This is how Boolean logic and values work. But what if we try comparing strings? Try comparing apples to oranges using the following:

"apples" == "oranges"

See the output? Now, try changing comparison operators and values to your liking. See what happens? Now you know that Boolean logic works not only with numeric but with other data formats in programming.

3 True and False in Variables

Let us see how we can use True and False values in variables. We can store results from comparisons that return True or False in variables. This is how it works:
