3. Write each of the programs in the lesson. To get the most out of these programs

Following the instructions, get the program to work.
Experiment with it: make little changes and see what happens, make sure you understand it.
Erase it - now try to write it without looking at your notes!

4. All of the programs from the lesson are in an executable zip file. When you click on this link, save the zip file to your disk.
Double click on the EXE file and unzip all of the files to a directory created for this lesson.

Programs: Color Control, Adding, Inches, Timer Fun
Compare the code in the programs to the ones you wrote.
Code from lesson 5: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

5. Do the self test questions and check your answers.

6. Using the sample programs as a model, write a completely new program that uses the same techniques.

Indent each statement inside a block about 2 spaces. All of the statements should line up.
Use good variable names and comments: if you look at the program in a year, will you know what the program does

Programming Exercise:
Create one of the programs below:

The scroll bar selects an amount of money, a second scroll bar selects the % of discount. Display the discounted price.
The scroll bar selects pounds, display kilos, or any other metric conversion.
