Lecture 19: Random Numbers; More Replication
Date: Friday, November 6, 2015

Agenda

Lecture 19 Assignment

Due at the start of class, Wednesday, November 11.

Please submit answers to these questions either as a hard copy (typeset or handwritten are OK) or by email to terescoj AT strose.edu by the start of class. Please use a clear subject line when submitting by email (e.g., CSC 112 Lecture 19 Assignment , Joe Student). We will discuss these questions at the start of class, so no late submissions are accepted.

  1. Modify this example:

    On the Wiki: Manyconesrotated, Downloadable file: manyconesrotated.py

    to choose random rotation amounts for each cone as is it added. (6 points)

  2. Write a series of Python statements that create a "plastic" material whose color is a randomly chosen shade of gray. Hint: you can use either HSV or RGB colors as a starting point, but you'll need to remember what kinds of values represent greyscale colors in whichever you choose. (5 points)
  3. Write a Python loop that prints out 5 random numbers in the range 1 through 6 (simulating the dice roll in a game of Yahtzee). (3 points)
  4. Write a Python loop that generates 100 random integers in the range 0-100 and prints out their sum. (6 points)
