Float (float)
Floats are numbers that are written with a decimal point in them.
For example: 3.4, -432.6, 3.14, 0.5, 4.0, etc. We can show an approximate result using float
numbers.
Boolean (bool)
Boolean kind of variables have only two values: True or False.
We can verify any kind of statement or condition in a code using a Boolean command. We can
give our code a direction as it can be programmed to act differently for different outcomes.
Users can check for conditions and let the code to act automatically.
String (str)
Strings are a sequence of one or multiple characters like alphabets, numbers or symbols.
They can be used to declare names, addresses or descriptions of variables. Any character
or set of characters under quotation marks is considered as 'Strings'.
For example: 'ball', 'good luck', '456', 'c@de', '3563apple', etc.
Input Blocks in AI Connect
Input blocks are used to add value to a variable and modify the code.
There are input blocks for adding values in all four data types— int, float, str and bool. Let’s
look at the blocks to find more about them:
This block inputs a string value as a question in the block and
prompts the user to enter an answer in the box when they
run the program. The code waits until an answer is entered.
This block also inputs string values in the code. Just enter
any statement in the space given in the block.
This is a numeric input block that takes integers and
float numbers as inputs. They are very useful for taking
measurements and using maths.
This input block adds Boolean value to a code. It can declare
a variable or statement either true or false.
Output Block and Commands
With output block palette you can structure the appearance of your output, there are
3 blocks under this category. They are 'print', 'print separated by', and 'print end with'.
‘Print’ is an output command that’s used to print anything that is attached to it on the screen.
It can be used to display answers, calculations, descriptions and instructions for users.
