Hello everybody. |
Welcome to this tutorial on Question Glues in KTurtle. |
| Slide Number 2
Learning Objectives |
In this tutorial, we will learn the following question glues
| |
| Slide Number 3
System Requirement |
To record this tutorial I am using,
Ubuntu Linux OS Version 12.04. KTurtle version 0.8.1 beta. | |
| Slide Number 4
Pre-requisites |
We assume that you have basic working knowledge of KTurtle and
“if-else” statement in KTurtle If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website. | |
| Before proceeding, let me explain about question glue words. | ||
| Slide Number 5
Question Glues |
Question glue words enable us to glue small questions into one big question.
“and”, “or” and “not” are some glue-words. Glue-words are used together with if-else conditions. | |
| Switch to KTurtle Application
Dash home >>Search bar appears>> In the Search bar type KTurtle |
Let's open a new KTurtle Application.
Click on Dash home. The Search bar appears. In the Search bar, type KTurtle. Click on the KTurtle option. | |
| Let's begin the tutorial with the glue word and. | ||
| I already have a program in a text editor. | ||
| #program to check triangle is scalene or not
reset message"Triangle's Inequality: In a triangle, sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the third side " $a =ask"enter length of side AB and click OK" $b =ask"enter length of side BC and click OK" $c=ask"enter length of side AC and click OK" #if condition below checks if sum of lengths of any two sides is greater than third side if(($a+$b>$c) and ($b+$c>$a) and ($c+$a>$b)){ #if condition below checks sides of triangle are not equal if(($a !=$b) and ($b != $c) and ($c != $a)) { fontsize 18 go 10,100 print "A scalene triangle" } else { go 10,100 print" Not a scalene triangle" } } else{ go 10,100 print"Does not satisfy triangle's inequality " } |
Let me copy the code from the text editor and paste it into KTurtle editor.
Please pause the tutorial here and type the program into your KTurtle editor.
| |
| Zoom text | Let me zoom into the program text.
It may possibly be a little blurred. | |
| Let's look the code. | ||
| Highlight reset | reset command sets Turtle to its default position. | |
| Highlight message"In a triangle sum of the lengths any two sides is greater than third side " | Message in a program is given within double quotes after the keyword message " "
“message” command takes “string” as input. It shows a pop-up dialog box containing text from the string and also generates a beep for non null strings. | |
| Highlight $a, $b and $c | $a, $b and $c are variables that store user input. | |
| Highlight ask" " | “ask” command prompts for user input to be stored in variables. | |
| Highlight if(($a+$b>$c) and ($b+$c>$a) and ($c+$a>$b) | if(($a+$b>$c) and ($b+$c>$a) and ($c+$a>$b),
checks the “if” condition. When the two questions glued with “and” are true, result is true. | |
| Highlight if(($a !=$b) and ($b != $c) and ($c != $a)) { | if(($a !=$b) and ($b != $c) and ($c != $a)){
when 'if' condition above is true, control moves into nested if block. It checks whether sides of triangle are unequal. | |
| Highlight fontsize 18 | fontsize 18 sets the font size used by print command. | |
| Highlight go 10,100 | go 10,100 commands Turtle to go to 10 pixels from left of canvas and 100 pixels from top of canvas. | |
| Highlight print "A scalene triangle" | print command displays the string after checking the if condition. | |
| else { | else command checks else condition, when if condition in the block is false | |
| Highlight print" Not a scalene triangle" | print command displays the string after checking the else condition. | |
| Highlight else | else command checks the final condition.
else is checked only when above conditions are false. | |
| Highlight print"Does not satisfy triangle's inequality " | print command displays the string after checking the else condition. | |
| Run the program | Let's click on the Run button to run the code. | |
| Point to the dialog box. | A message dialog box pops up.
Let me click OK. | |
| Point to the result | Enter 5 for 'length of side AB' and click OK
enter 8 for 'length of side BC' and click OK enter 9 for 'length of side AC' and click OK “A scalene triangle” is displayed on the canvas. | |
| Run the program | Let me run the code again | |
| Point to the dialog box. | A message dialog box pops up again.
Let me click OK. | |
| Point to the result | Enter 5 for 'AB' and click OK
6 for 'BC' and click OK 6 for 'AC' and click OK “Triangle is not a scalene triangle” is displayed on the canvas. | |
| Run the program | Let's run the code again. | |
| Point to the result | Enter 1 for 'AB' and click OK
1 for 'BC' and click OK 2 for 'AC' and click OK " Does not satisfy triangle's inequality " is displayed on canvas. | |
| Next let's work with the glue word not. | ||
| #program checks triangle is equilateral or not
reset $a=ask"enter length of AB and click OK" $b=ask"enter length of BC and click OK" $c=ask"enter length of AC and click OK" if not(($a==$b)and($b==$c)and($c==$a)){ print "Triangle is not equilateral" } else { print "Triangle is equilateral" go 100,100 repeat 3{turnright 120 forward 100}} |
Let me copy the code from the text editor and paste it into KTurtle editor.
Resume the tutorial after typing the program. | |
| Zoom text | Let me zoom into the program text and explain the program | |
| Highlight reset | reset command sets Turtle to its default position. | |
| Highlight $a, $b and $c | $a, $b and $c are variables that store user input. | |
| Highlight if not (($a==$b) and ($b==$c) and ($c==$a)){ | if not (($a==$b) and ($b==$c) and ($c==$a)){
not is a special question glue-word. It inverses the logical state of its operand. e.g. If the given condition is true, not makes it false. And when the condition is false the output will be true. | |
| Highlight print "Triangle is not equilateral" | print command displays the string after checking the if not condition. | |
| Highlight else | else command is executed when if condition is false. | |
| Highlight print "Triangle is equilateral" | print command displays the string after checking the else condition. | |
| Highlight go 100,100 | go 100,100 commands Turtle to go 100 pixels from left of canvas and 100 pixels from top of canvas | |
| Highlight repeat 3{turnright 120 forward 100} | repeat 3{turnright 120 forward 100} command draws an equilateral triangle on the canvas | |
| Run the program | Press F5 key run the code.
Enter 6 for AB and click OK 5 BC for and click OK 7 for AC and click OK “Triangle is not equilateral” is displayed on the canvas. | |
| Run the program | Press F5 key to run the code.
Enter 4 for AB and click OK 4 for BC and click OK 4 for AC and click OK “Triangle is equilateral” is displayed on the canvas. | |
| With this we come to the end of this tutorial.
Let's summarize. | ||

| Slide Number 7
Assignment |
As an assignment, I would like you to write program to determine
Angle concept for a right angled triangle using question glue “or” | |
| Slide Number 8
Syntax of if or condition |
if ((condition)or(condition)or(condition)){
//do something } else { //do something } |
Structure of if or condition is: if within brackets condition or within brackets condition or within brackets condition. Within curly brackets do something. else within curly brackets do something. |
