# This program is part of a set of animations and demonstrations intended to get # students to pose vaguely mathematical questions. This particular program alternates # between displaying one of two words ("Yes" and "No"), leaving each word visible for # longer and longer times. The hope is that this will get students to ask questions # related to rates, limits, functions, etc., e.g., "is it going to keep slowing down," # "how long will the word stay there this time," "is it ever going to stop," etc. from time import sleep t = 1 while True : if t % 2 == 0 : word = "Yes" else : word = "No " print( word, end="\r" ) sleep( t**2 / 200 ) t += 1
