ACARA 7-8 Digital Technologies: Iteration with for and while loops in Python
Students repeat actions with for and while loops, combine loops with decisions and counters, nest loops, validate input and avoid infinite loops.
One content description (AC9TDI8P06, AC9TDI8P09) from the full ACARA Digital Technologies Years 7–8 — Programming with Control Structures and Functions (Python) journey. All 12 modules below are in that journey too, with the same content — add just these to a class, or the whole strand.
