Unit 5 and introduction of PromptNum?

CS Principles
1

In Unit 5 Lesson 6 it states:

Blockquote
Up until now, the event-driven apps you have created responded to the user clicking an element or typing a number when you used promptNum . What if we want the user to provide text instead of a number?

However I can not recall any time we have used promptNum during any of the earlier lessons. I may be wrong but if anyone can point me to where promptnum is first introduced that would be appreciated.

Unit 5, Lesson 4, Bubble 15…I had to double-check that myself!

Hi Folks - Where would promptNum be in the 20-21 curriculum? I thought maybe in Unit 4 (variables) but don’t see a ‘calculator’ app. Thank you for any help

Hello,

In the 20-21 curriculum it exists in the API, but is not explicitly taught. This is a result of trying to streamline the course based on the new AP requirements!
