Code - Code is a set of instructions that a computer can understand. This is sometimes called a program.
Comment - Comments explain what we’re doing in the programs and are intended to be read by people, not computers. In Python, a comment starts with #. The computer will ignore everything from the start of the comment to the end of that line.
Dot-Notation - Dot-notation is how you ask an object to do something in Python. You use the name of the object followed by a dot (period) and then followed by what you want it to do and then any values in parentheses. For example, to return a new string with all lowercase letters from a variable called sentence use sentence.lower(). To ask a turtle named alex to go forward 50 units use alex.forward(50) .
Library - A library is a group of programs that provides some functionality. The Turtle library is a good example. It lets us create and work with Turtle objects.
Pixel - A pixel is one small part (element) of a picture. Pixels are stored in a grid and have both x (horizontal) and y (vertical) values. A pixel has a color that is defined by an amount of red, green, and blue, each with values from 0 to 255.
Program - A program is a set of instructions that a computer can understand to accomplish some goal. This is sometimes called code.
String - A string is anything we can type between a pair of single quotes ('Hi'), double quotes ("Hi"), or triple quotes ('''Hi'''). It is a sequence of characters.
Variable - A variable is a name associated with computer memory that can hold a value and that value can change or vary. One example of a variable is the score in a game.
