The Task

Activity: Update Variables ㊙

One purpose of asking for user input is to update a variable with the latest value.

For example personal devices will have some kind of security pass-code or password to prevent unauthorised access.

However, new devices may have a default security code which should be set to a new secure value by the owner.

bug 🪲

The program runs put does not update all the settings.

Find out why this is and complete the code so that the program meets the full requirements.

Start Here

Work individually to complete the Update variables task on

repl.it⁠

Run the program first. Read the comment lines. This program is incomplete. However the full design is shown below.

Add code to store and update a new value in the same variable. You should be able to find and read exisiting code that may help you. Remember the snippets in CodeClips may also be useful.

Display the new variable stored, as shown in the example output.

purpose and design

purpose

This program should show the user the default passcode and default password. The program should allow the user to update both values and then show the new values.

design

the design has been implmented in code up to step 08

you have to write code for steps 9 and 10

01. set default passcode to 123456

02. set default password to ZYXW0987

03. display passcode

04. get secure passcode from keyboard

05. display passcode

06. display password

07. get secure password from keyboard

08. display password

expected output (sample)

The temporary passcode is 123456

Please enter a new pass code: 207116

Your new passcode is 207116

Your temporary password is ZYXW0987

Enter a new secure password d*Mzw6Pq
