■ Week 1 – Python Study Plan
This plan is designed for Hanna to begin her journey into programming with Python. Each day has a
small goal and exercises to build your skills step by step. By the end of the week, you’ll have written
your first mini-project: a calculator!
Day 1 – Setup & Print
• Install Python 3.13 (or latest).
• Open IDLE or use [Link].
• Write a program that prints:
• - Your name
• - Your favorite book

Day 2 – Variables & Data Types
• Create variables for your age, name, and weight.
• Print them in one sentence using f-strings.
Day 3 – If/Else (Decisions)
• Ask user for their age.
• If age ≥ 18 → print 'You are an adult.'
• If age < 18 → print 'You are a minor.'
• If age ≥ 60 → print 'You are a senior.'
Day 4 – Loops
• Print numbers 1 to 10 using a for loop.
• Print numbers 1 to 10 using a while loop.

Day 5 – Lists

• Write a function add(a, b) that returns the sum.
• Challenge: Write a function to check if a number is even or odd.
Day 7 – Mini Project: Calculator
