Lecture 19: Random Numbers; More Replication
Date: Wednesday, April 6, 2016

Agenda

Lecture 19 Assignment

Due at the start of class, Monday, April 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, Mary Smith). 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)
