This repository is a collection of exercises for computer science course in high school classes (2hrs of lectures per week). All exercises have their own description provided with a pdf file that can be delivered as an assignment and optionally some resources. The description should be self-contained.

[^1]: also with inheritance
[^2]: imperative and procedural programming

Download the repository

git clone [email protected]:lparolari/high-school-assignments.git

(Optional) Add a python virtualenv and install dependencies

# add the virtual environment
virtualenv .venv
# or, with
python3 -m virtualenv .venv

# activate it
source .venv/bin/activate

# install dependencies
pip install dryable

You may install docker package, see https://github.com/blang/latex-docker.

Requirements

• make
• python (>= 3.8)
• docker
• latex (optional, depending on the build system you choose)

Compile sources

In order to compile all the source run the following command

python build.py

This will generate two directories

• .dist where you can find a pdf file with the assigmnet instructions, some resources in exercise folder and the solution in the solution folder, and
• .dist-pdf where you can find all assigmnet instructions in one folder.

The script uses the command make pdf in order to build an exercise and copies to the target output directory all the .pdf files from the source directory plus the folder exercise and the folder solution if existing.

Please use python build_new.py --help for more informations.

$ python build.py  --help
usage: build_new.py [-h] [--dry-run] [-v]

Welcome to the building script for the high school assignments.
You can build assignments source with a single command.
(C) Luca Parolari <[email protected]>

optional arguments:
  -h, --help     show this help message and exit
  --dry-run      Do a trial run with actions performed.
  -v, --verbose  Increase output verbosity.

As an alternative to the commandline, params can be placed in a
file, one per line, and specified on the commandline like
'build_new.py @params.conf'.

The repository is a collection of exercises and it uses some conventions in order to simplify some task such as build or delivery. If you can, please use strict conventions and also weak conventions.

• every exercise is a directory with the name of exercise in the format name-of-exercise--variant
• every latex project has a Makefile with the pdf target

• if the exercise has a written solution, it should be contained in the solution directory
• if the exercise has a base solution with some code, it should be contained in the exercise directory
• relations between exercises and their context should be excluded from exercise names, list them in the readme instead

Pull requests are welcome, every contribute will build a better world for computer science teachers.

In order to add an exercise you should follow conventions above. However, every exercise can be different from the other but it...

must provide

• a Makefile with the target pdf

should provide

• an exercise directory with resources for the assigment
• a solution directory with exercise's solution

programming-exercise-template

A latex template for exercises. You can find the source code at https://github.com/lparolari/programming-exercise-template.

For a quick start run

git clone [email protected]:lparolari/programming-exercise-template.git exercise-name
cd exercise-name
rm -rf .git .travis.yml LICENSE README.md
