Basic programming constructs

There are three types of basic programming constructs: sequence, selection and iteration. We will implement these programming constructs in Python. Python is an open-source, high-level programming language.

This A Level Computer Science module introduces basic programming constructs to your students, explaining:

  • Three main programming constructs: sequence, selection and iteration
  • Implementing programs in Python programming language
  • Random module in Python
