Question 1
(a) When the spacebar is pressed, the user is asked to input the students name, which, in this
case, is Faria. Faria is then stored as a "name" variable. The user is then asked to input their
test score of 72, this is then stored as a "math_test_score" variable. The "percentage_score"
is then worked out by using the variable "math_test_score" * 1.25, which then provides us
with a percentage out of 100. The sprite then informs us of the "percentage_score" for
Faria. In this case, Faria's "percentage_score" is higher than 75% so therefore her name
which was stored in the "name" variable, is now added to the "math_challenge_list" list.
The program was able to decide if Faria was legible for the "math_challenge_list" by using
the "IF percentage_score > 75 THEN" function.
An excellent fully detailed description.
(b)
i. 80
Make it clear what this number represents. Although this might be suitable in an
extended version it is not being used in this program.
The percentage multiplier, 1.25, might be stored in a constant.
ii. MAXIMUM_SCORE
Good to see the naming convention for constants has been followed.
