GCSE – Lesson 28 – String handling III

Curriculum KS4 Unit Lesson

This lesson allows learners to create a program that uses a variety of string handling techniques. It also makes use of the random module. Learners have not seen this for a while, so a starter activity has been created to help familiarise them with this again.

This lesson is intentionally shorter than a typical lesson to allow for additional time that might be required from the last lesson.

The main activity for this lesson is to produce a program that will create a secure password based on three random words. It uses randomisation and string handling techniques to produce the secure password.
