2. Equations 1 step diagramsο
The python file to make a 1-step invop diagram is below.
The python file, invop_diagram_maker.py, when run, will ask for these inputs:
Choose the arithmetic process:
"Enter 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 for +, -, X, /, random for 1st process"Choose the file name base:
"Enter the base filename to be added to the prefix :"The prefix will be βinvolp1β for standard operations.
The filename will have β_qβ added for the question diagram and β_ansβ for the answer diagram.
