Chapter 2 - Main Ideas

  • Lines starting with # are called "comments" and Python skips them.
    • Like blank lines, comments help people understand code easier.
  • Functions can take "arguments".
    • Example: player.move_forward(5)
    • Example: player.collect("water")
  • Variables can be used to store values. They have different types.
    • Integer variable example: score = 5
    • String variable example: message = "hello"
  • Variables can be passed as arguments to functions.
    • Example: player.place(wheat)
