move();
move();
move();
move();
move();

What does the mystery function do?
function mystery() { while (noBallsPresent()) { move();
}
}

Define Condition
What are statements that are created by the programmer which evaluates actions in the program and evaluates if it's true or false.
Why does a programmer indent their code?
Helps show the structure of the code.
Easier for other people to understand.

What is wrong with this for loop?
for (var i = 0, i < 10, i + 1) {
move();
}
A. The for loop uses commas instead of semicolons
B. It should say i++ instead of i + 1
A and B
Which of the following commands is a valid Karel command?

In the following code below from the Cleanup Karel example, what is the purpose of If Statement #2?
function start() {
while (frontIsClear()) {
// If statement #1
if (ballsPresent()) {
takeBall();
}
move();
}
// If statement #2
if (ballsPresent()) {
takeBall();
}
}
To pick up the ball that is in the last spot, if there is one
Which of the following is not a valid condition to go in an if statement for Karel?

move();
turnLeft();
dance();
dance();
}
function dance() {
turnLeft();
move();
turnLeft();
turnLeft();
move();
turnLeft();
}
Called 3 times, defined 1 time
What makes the following command an invalid Karel command?
turnleft();
The l should be a capital L
Define the correct function to have Karel turnRight
Function turnRight () {
turnLeft();
turnLeft();
turnLeft();
}
What condition should be used in this while loop to get Karel to pick up all the tennis balls on the current location?
while (________) {
takeBall();
}
ballsPresent()
What is the purpose of using a for loop in code?
To repeat something a fixed number of times
Super Karel starts at Street 1, Avenue 1, facing East in a 5x5 world. What will happen after this code runs?

turnRight();
move();
Karel will crash into a wall
Define Command
What is a directive to a computer program to perform a specific task
How many total times will Karel move in this program?
function start() { move(); for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) { move(); putBall(); } }

Karel starts at Street 1 and Avenue 1, facing East. After calling the stairStep function twice, where will Karel be and what direction will Karel be facing? (assume this is a SuperKarel program and the world is 10x10 in size)
function stairStep() {
move();
turnLeft();
move();
turnRight();
}
Street 3, Avenue 3, Facing East
Why do we use functions in Karel programs?
Break down our program into smaller parts
Avoid repeating code
Make our program more readable

turnLeft();
move();
turnRight();
}
Karel ends one spot above a tennis ball facing East.
How can we teach Karel new commands?
Define a new function
Define Function
What is a block of organized, reusable code that is used to perform a single, related action

What is top down design?
Top down design is a way of designing your program by starting with the biggest problem and breaking it down into smaller and smaller pieces that are easier to solve.
