Activity Overview
In this TI-84 Plus CE Python coding activity, students will create a fraction based, tic tac toe game using Python and mathematics.
Objectives
- Use variables to store values
- Use the randint() function to generate integers
- Use the print() function to display
- Use a while loop to repeat code.
- Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators.
- Multiply and divide fractions.(Teacher Note step 9 tells how to restrict to add and subtract)
- Add, subtract, multiple, and divide fractions with positive and negative values. (Teacher note step 3 to restrict to positive values).
About the Lesson
In this project, you will create a fraction tic tac toe game. The tic tac toe board and scoring code have already been written for you in the “TicTacTo.8xv” file. You will write the code to generate fraction addition, subtraction, multiplication and division problems. You will also write the code to request the user’s answer. The user must answer the question correctly to earn a new spot on the board. The computer always earns a new spot, so math carefully!
