Section 4.12 Mixed-up Code Questions

Checkpoint 4.12.1.

Create code that sets the variable result equal to “x is less than 3” when x is less than 3. Otherwise, set it to “All done”.

Checkpoint 4.12.2.

Create code that initializes x to 2 and then sets the variable message to “Hello” if x is less than 2, “Hey” if x is greater than 2, and “Hi” if x is 2.

Checkpoint 4.12.3.

Create code that sets price to 1.5 if weight is less than 2, otherwise set price to 1.3. Then, set total to the weight times price. For example, if weight is 0.5 then price should be set to 1.5 and total will be 0.75.

Checkpoint 4.12.4.

Create code that sets the variable number to x is a number from 1 to 10 if the value of x is 1-10, x is a number less than 1 if the value of x is zero or below, and x is a number greater than 10 if the value of x is more than 10.

Checkpoint 4.12.5.

Create code that sets the variable rate to the cost of a 14 mile cab ride. If the distance traveled is less than or equal to 12 miles, then rate cost is $2.00 a mile, and if the distance traveled is more than 12 miles then rate cost is $1.50 a mile. Assign the final cost to the variable total.

Checkpoint 4.12.6.

Create code that should set the variable result to determine whether a number is odd or even.
