Build

Create a new Python program named 1-2-output.py.

Task 1: Write and Test

• Write each line of code, one at a time.
• Run and test your program to ensure it executes as intended.

1
print("Hello, world!")
2
print("This class is taught by Mr. Mortimer.")
3
print("You are currently visiting: https://skynest.nexus")
4
print() # Display a blank line
5
#

Task 2: Add More Code

• Write the additional sections of output under your current code.
• Remember to run and test your project to ensure it executes as intended.
• There is a section of code that is 'commented out'. Uncomment the code so that it executes when your program runs.
• Note: The green lines with a + sign denote new code. Don't actually write the + sign.

1
print("Hello, world!")
2
print("This class is taught by Mr. Mortimer.")
3
print("You are currently visiting: https://skynest.nexus")
4
print() # Display a blank line

Challenge (Optional): Write a Custom Section

• Output a three-line paragraph of your choice somewhere in the program. Keep it school appropriate.
• Remember to run and test your project to ensure it executes as intended.

Checkpoint

Verify your program works correctly.

Hello, world!
This class is taught by Mr. Mortimer.
You are currently visiting: https://skynest.nexus

What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?
The answer is 42.

Sally sells seashells by the seashore.
