20FA_CAC180A-Programming in Python

Please copy and paste your solutions to the following programs into Moodle. 

1. Write a program that asks the user to enter the width and length of a room. Once the values have been read, your program should compute and display the area of the room. The length and the width will be entered as floating point numbers. Include units in your prompt and output message; either feet or meters, depending on which unit you are more comfortable working with.

2. Ask the user for the fuel efficiency of their car (miles per gallon). Ask them how many gallons they have left (you can do this as a fraction or an actual amount of gallons). Display the maximum miles they can drive before running out of gas. 

3. Write a program that begins by reading a temperature from the user in degrees Celsius. Then your program should display the equivalent temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Kelvin. The calculations needed to convert between different units of temperature can be found on the internet.

This is the first of four larger programming assignments, which weigh heavily in your final grade. Please write your code in Anaconda Navigator, paste your code into Moodle. Note that we have not learned everything you need to complete this assignment yet, but we will by the time it is due.

Please feel free to ask me questions.

Please complete the attached activity in lieu of class. Copy/paste your code into the Moodle assignment.

Tip: Python has a way to reverse strings.

Please complete the following labs in Zybooks (they are the labs in chapter 4 that are not hidden). If you do not have the books currently, then submit your programs on Moodle.

Work with a partner or individually. I only need one copy submitted per team. Submit whatever you have completed by the end of class.

Please complete the following labs in ZyBooks. Submit your assignment in Moodle.

This week, we will be finishing the work on image manipulation. We will not be doing a lab from ZyBooks. Instead, please submit the before and after pictures as well as your code for doing a sepia manipulation. The logic for sepia is in the slides. Please be sure that you have the code for sepia contained within a function.

This project requires the use of loops, decisions, and dictionaries. I hope you have fun with it!

Please work individually on this exam. Remember, if you copy code from online, you must cite the source AND explain why it works. 

Read one of the following articles and write a couple of sentences about what you thought was the most interesting, most impactful, or most applicable to your future career, studies, or life in general.

Complete 30% of the activities within the textbook for Chapter 6: Functions. No need to submit anything on Moodle.

Complete 30% of the activities within the textbook for Chapter 11: Classes. No need to submit anything on Moodle.

Please complete the following two tasks in Tic Tac Toe: 

1. Allow the user to choose heads/tails to see if the user goes first or the computer and alter your code accordingly. 

2. Allow the user to play again. 

Bonus: Add a simple strategy for the AI to play against the user. (10 extra points)

This is a lab in Zybooks. The programs developed in zyBooks should be submitted in Moodle.

Please complete 30% of the activities for chapter 10 in ZyBooks. No need to submit anything here. 

Please complete both labs in the ZyBook for Chapter 13. Upload your code to Moodle using a .txt file.

The project is a collage or portfolio of ten images that have been manipulated in some way by code. 

Examples of what we discussed in class regarding manipulation are as follows:

• Grayscale
• Negative
• Simulate a sunset
• Sepia tones

A theme would be great to have across the images, but it is not required. The goal is to demonstrate that you have learned and understand how to do basic image manipulation programmatically while having a little fun. The specific requirements are as follows:

1. The final product must consist of ten new images.
2. Four of the techniques explained in class plus two techniques not explained in class must be used. For example, grayscale, negative, sunset, and sepia can be used, but two new techniques not on the above list must also be used. Perhaps, an image has all but one section as grayscale, or maybe the image is half sunset, half normal. Maybe only a quarter of the image is sepia, or maybe a corner of an image is left as a solid color like blue, black, or gold. I want to see creativity!
3. Documentation must be included (described below) submitted in pdf format.

Documentation
The documentation will consist of the following sections: introduction, original images, new images, techniques, and conclusion.

• Introduction: Roughly half a page, double-spaced, about the theme of the project. What is the theme? Why did you choose it?
• Original images: Put all of the images on one page or organize them as you wish.
• New images: Put all of the images on one page or organize them as you wish.
• Techniques: What techniques did you use for each image? Explain the code works for that technique. This should be 3-5 sentences per technique (6 paragraphs).
• Conclusion: What did you learn this semester that enabled you to do this project (please don’t just say Python)? Do you have any reflection on the project/course? 3-4 sentences.
• Appendix: Include your code here.

Please write the code for a Hangman game. 

The program should randomly choose a word from the attached dictionary file. The program should then display the appropriate number of dashes for the user to guess. As the user guesses, please display the letters guessed as well as the number of correct and incorrect guesses. This can be done however you like. You can draw the traditional hangman image, or you can list the number of guesses remaining.

1. Your program should choose a random word from the attached dictionary file.
2. Display the appropriate number of dashes.
3. Fill in blanks as user guesses.
4. Display the letters guessed.
5. Display the number of guesses remaining.
6. Your program should allow the user to play as many times as he/she likes.

You may NOT use code from the web to accomplish this task. If you need help, please ask me.

Documentation
The documentation will consist of the following sections: introduction, techniques, and conclusion.

• Introduction: (3-4 sentences) Why did you choose this project? Is your hangman traditional or unique? If it’s unique, how is it unique?
• Techniques: (3-4 sentences) What techniques did you use within your code? Are there any sections that caused you difficulty? Are there any sections you are particularly proud of?
• Conclusion: (3-4 sentences) What did you learn this semester that enabled you to do this project (please don’t just say Python)? Do you have any reflection on the project/course?
• Appendix: Include your code here.
