Use this program to apply students’ knowledge of complements and supplements and automatically compute the complement and supplement of a given angle. Have students analyze or fill in parts of the program to reinforce their understanding. This program could be used to further your understanding of how you could use Python in the classroom, as a demonstration or discussion with your students, or as a way to introduce various CT concepts, such as pattern recognition or abstraction, to your students by inviting them to extend the existing functionality of the program.
