$2\mathrm{.}13$ LAB: Fixing errors in Kite Perimeter Computation

Kite, Fly, Wind, Fun

A flying kite

Course Learning Goals

Debug the program by reading the code and predicting the output of parts of code

Read through the error message and correct the code based on the error's hint

Create new variables and give them correct identifier names

Use the correct operators in a Python expression $($fix logic errors$)$

Implement a formula to compute a kite's perimeter

Print the text $($strings$)$ and variable contents

Instructions

The program contains syntax and logic errors.

Bonus: Read through the code and see how many errors you can fix by first reading and attempting to fix the errors without running the program first.

Fix the syntax errors in the Develop mode until the program executes.

Then fix the logic errors.

Error messages are often long and technical. Do not expect the messages to make much sense when starting to learn a programming language. Use the messages as hints to locate the portion of the program that causes an error.

One error often causes additional errors further along in the program.

For this exercise, fix the first error reported.

Then try to run the program again.

Repeat until all the syntax errors have been corrected.

Output

In this program, the values are hard$-$coded, i$.$e$.,$ they are fixed in the code and do not change each time the code runs. Thus, the output will always be the same.

The correct output of the program is:
