• What Python is and where it’s used.

• Functions, the bits of code that tell Python what to do.

• How to create and name variables.

• How to build conditional logic to automate dual-alternative decision-making.

• How to use Python for advanced decision making with nested if/else statements.

• How Python interacts with a console.

• How to code simple programs and use conditional statements to automate decision-making.

Part 1:

• Functions: bits of code that tell Python what to do
• Two of the most important functions: print and input

Part 2:

• Variables - fundamental building blocks of all programming languages, they hold and name data in your code
• Two variable types: Strings and Integers

Part 3:

• Operators: Equal to, less than, greater than
• Conditionals: If, Elif, Else

Part 4:

• Decision-making with Python: if/else with dual alternative decision statements

Part 5:

• Advanced decision-making: Nested if/else

Quick Demo: Build a Werewolf Detector with Python

Culminating Activity: Edit the Werewolf Detector code to create a vampire detector that uses nested if/else statements
