Seesaws are fun! Unless the difference between the weights of the people is too great. Then…
If the difference between the weights of the people is more than 20% of their total weight, maybe they should skip the seesaw.
Here is a workbook with a program that warns the user if the difference between the weights is too high. Download the file, and save it on your computer.
In this situation…
… the difference in weights is small. Click the Run button, and the program should tell you that seesawing is no problem. But in either of these situations…
… the program should warn you that there could be a problem.
The program doesn't work right. Fix it, and submit the fixed workbook.
Hint: Remember that you can use the debugger to look inside the code. Check out the value of variables, like difference
