Say

A set of problems related to using a speaker to talk.

Starting with Say

Most programs use one or more forms of user output. In this problem, you will use the text based say block to speak the text Hello when your program is run. Move the block from the tray to the editor and run the code.

Change Text in a Block

Move the say block from the tray to the block editor, change the text to Hello World, and run the program.

Position a Block

Build on the starter program that displays a short introduction of a character you make up. The introduction to your character should speak their name and one fact about them.

Say Order

Practice putting say blocks in order. Move each block so the program displays the correct answer after each question.

Select a Block

Programmers often need learn to select the code they will use to make a program work correctly. In this activity, select the code block that will speak the question and answer through speakers.

Introducing Concatenation

Read through this code and practice putting the blocks in order. After you run the code it should produce the same output as a problem you have already completed. This time concatenation is used to make the same output.

Concatenate Text and Say

Using the starter blocks in the tray build a program that speaks character name and age in the following example format.

Name: Sasha
Age: 17

You will need to change the text in both of the provided blocks. Use the '+' to concatenate or type the full line of text.

Change Text in a Block

Using the say block in the tray build a program that speaks a character name, age, birthdate, and about me paragraph. Be sure to follow the example format below.

Name: Sasha
Age: 17
Birthdate: 01/18/2014
