CH02_06: Checkpoint Programs: QUIZ

Programming Assignments - 1 Class Period - QUIZ

DIRECTIONS

Each of these files MUST be in a separate file (sorry).
Please make sure the top of each program includes:

#===============================# Name: YOUR NAME# Program: THE_PROGRAM_NUMBER#===============================

EXTRA INFORMATION

Code MUST have a header section showing name and date
All tasks MUST BE SEPARATED in both your code and output. I should VERY Easily be able to scan your code and see each activity. I should also be able to run your program and see each activity clearly in the output!!

If you use things like colors, text decorations, unicode, and extra methods / things we've learned in class, you'll be awarded bonus points for each task you use them on.
- - All Unicode must be show like \UXXXXXXXX - Do not paste in the actual character
  - ALL Color strings must be DEFINED as STRING CONSTANTS

BONUS:

An extra 2 points per program will be awarded if you print what program it is before it runs. I've included an example below:

=============================2-1 Simple Message=============================

Time to Complete:

You will have the entire block, plus possibly 20 minutes next class to complete the quiz. After that, if not submitted, you will lose 10% per day late

Let's Begin...

2-1: Simple Message - Programming Activity

- Ask a user for something they'd like to tell someone
- Assign the Message to a Variable and then print that message in at least 4 different ways
  - - fStrings, placeholders, standard print, comma print, etc...
- Each way you print it, you must tell the user (with a message) how it's being printed

I've included an example

2-2: Simple Messages - Programming Activity

- Have a user input a message and assign it to a variable
- Print the message.
- Prompt the user for a new message and change the value of the variable to be the new message
- Print the new message.

NOTE: You should ONLY have 1 variable!!!

ACTIVITY 2-3 Personal Message

Prompt a user to enter their name.
Print a message to that person.
- - NOTE: Your message should be simple such as, "Hello Eric, would you like to play a game?"

ACTIVITY 2-4: Name Cases

Prompt a user to enter a name
Using String Functions, print that name out in upper, lower, and title case
- - Make sure to tell the user what you're printing their name as

NOTE: It MUST be formatted like shown!!!

ACTIVITY 2-5: Famous Quote 1

Prompt a person to enter a famous quote and it's author/speaker
Print the quote and the name of the author.
Your output should look like the following (your quote MUST be in quotes):

Albert Einstein Once Said, "A Person who never made a mistake never tried anything new"

ACTIVITY 2-6: Famous Quote 2

Repeat the last exercise, but
- - store the persons name in a variable called famous_person.
  - store the quote in a variable called message.
Print as follows:

"A Person who never made a mistake never tried anything new"

~ Albert Einstein

ACTIVITY 2-7a: Stripping Names

Create a variable called uname1 = " SOME NAME GOES HERE "
Create a variable called uname2 = "\t\tSOME NAME HERE\t\t"
Print so the whitespace is displayed
Now, print it using each of the 3 functions lstrip(), rstrip() and strip()
This must be printed nicely!!!

NOTE: I've shown you 2 possible ways to output this. Pick one of these, or another well formatted output

ACTIVITY 2-7b: Stripping Names

Prompt a user to enter a string with leading and trailing whitespace
print the string as it was entered
remove all whitespace using string methods
print the new string

ACTIVITY 2-8a: File Extensions

Assign the value 'c:\Windows\Users\root\python_notes.txt' to a variable called filename
Prompt a user to enter a file path like shown above. You can even use that to show the user what needs to be printed. Tell them it MUST be located in c:\Windows\Users\root
- - If you don't, this assignment is a LOT Harder, and you don't know how to do it yet!!
use whatever appropriate string methods you need to display the file name only for BOTH strings

ACTIVITY 2-8b: Websites

Create a new file called website_strings.py
Prompt a user to add at least 3 names of websites and store them in variables. Example below:
- website_one = "http://www.amazon.com"
- website_two = "http://www.google.com"
- website_three = "http://www.sweetwater.com"

Using your string functions, you need to Figure out a way to print the website names as follows:

AmazonGoogleSweetwater

Display Method 1:

Display Method 2:

Here's The Tough One... Automatic 150%

ACTIVITY 2-9: Using Numbers

Convert the following for a user:
- Prompt for number of days, and convert it to number of minutes
- Prompt a user for number of meters, and convert it to feet
- Prompt a user to enter a number of donuts (Between 12 and 15 - don't worry about error checking yet) and:
  - - Display that number of unicode donuts in no more than 12 per line
    - Output how many donuts the user asked for
    - Do this all in a table

Note... You do NOT need to worry about the donut unicode rows being lined up nicely. However, if you can get them to, I'll award bonus!!

Just so you know: 1 unicode character = 2 text character spaces
