Conditional Logic: Making Decisions
Students will explore how 'if-then-else' statements allow programs to make decisions and respond to different conditions.
Key Questions
- How do computers make decisions based on different situations?
- Give an example of a 'if-then-else' rule you follow in your daily life.
- How can we use conditions to control the flow of a simple game?
