Lesson details
Key learning points
- In this lesson, we will be introduced to the data structures: arrays and lists. We will then define them and explain the differences between the two. We will then focus on lists in Python. We will use lists to create a 'Simon says...' game, which randomly selects instructions from a list of items.
