Both projects we'll use were created by Jessica McKellar and live on GitHub:
They are instructor-led, following roughly these outlines:
Wordplay
- Review relevant material from lecture (e.g. for loops)
- Go over words1.py through words6.py as a class
- Demo scrabble_cheater.py
- Have students explore other interesting word properties or play with scrabble_cheater.py (BPW has had people start Words With Friends games and cheat using the script)
