    This document contains examples of Python scripts that perform various tasks like counting strings in a list, calculating sums, mixing words, parsing employee data from files, and creating classes. It also includes exercises to modify each script. The exercises generally involve enhancing the scripts to handle additional use cases, like summing all numbers in a list rather than just two, mixing up dictionary key-value pairs, reading an employee file line by line rather than all at once, creating a Manager class that inherits from Employee, and enabling message passing between a client and server.

    Python examples

    1. count_words.py – Given a list of strings, return the count of the number of strings where the string
    length is 2 or more

    Example: count_words.py

    def count_strings(words):
    count = 0
    for word in words:
    if len(word) >= 2 :
    count = count + 1
    # you can also use count+=1
    return count

    l_words = ['aba', 'xyz', 'aa', 'x', 'bbb']


    print "List:", l_words

    cnt = count_strings(l_words)
    print "Found", cnt, "strings with length higher than 2"

    Running example:
    $ ./count_words.py
    List: ['aba', 'xyz', 'aa', 'x', 'bbb']
    Found 4 strings with length higher than 2

    Exercise: Modify the script to count and print the elements of the list that have the same first and
    last chars.
    E.g. The exercise will print

    $ ./count_words_solution.py
    List: ['aba', 'xyz', 'aa', 'x', 'bbb']
    aba
    aa
    bbb
    Found 3 strings with length higher than 2

    2. sum.py – Script for calculating the sum of 2 numbers given as parameters:

    Example: add.py 3 5

    #!/usr/bin/python

    import sys

    if (len(sys.argv) < 2 or len(sys.argv) > 3):


    print "Usage:\n You should use the following syntax: add value1 value2"
    sys.exit("Not enough paraments!!!")
    else:
    #the arguments that the script uses: add value1 value2
    # sys.argv[0] represents program name
    # the parameters need to be converted to int, as they are considered string
    value1 = int(sys.argv[1])
    value2 = int(sys.argv[2])

    #the procedure returns the sum of 2 numbers given as parameters


    def sum (a,b):
    print "Add value1=",value1," with value2=",value2
    result = a + b
    return result

    #calling the procedure


    sum_value=sum(value1,value2)

    print "Sum is:",sum_value

    Exercise: Modify the script to calculate the sum of all numbers given as parameters (not just for 2
    numbers)

    3. mix_words.py - Given strings a and b, return a single string with a and b separated by a space '<a>
    <b>', except swap the first 2 chars of each string.
    Assume a and b are length 2 or more.

    Example: mix_words.py

    def mix_words(a, b):


    # concat first two characters from b with characters from 2 to end from a
    a_swapped = b[:2] + a[2:]
    b_swapped = a[:2] + b[2:]
    # create string using swapped a, b and space
    return a_swapped + ' ' + b_swapped

    val1 = "test"
    val2 = "mix"
    print 'Words to mix up:',val1,’,’,val2

    # call mix_words procedure


    mixed_string = mix_words(val1,val2)

    print 'Mixed word:', mixed_string

    Running example:
    $ python mix_words.py
    Words to mix up: test , mix
    Mixed word: mist tex

    Exercise: Modify mix_words procedure to receive a dictionary as parameter. Mix up each key and
    value pair of the dictionary as above( <key> <value>, swap first two chars ). Return a list that contain
    all values. Print the list on the screen.
    E.g The exercise will print
    $ python mix_up_solution.py
    Dictionary to mix up: {'mix': 'test', 'one': 'First'}
    Returned list: ['tex mist', 'Fie onrst']
    4. get_employee_name.py – Given a file as a parameter, extract the Name and Surname of each
    employee. Write the resulted name and surname on another file.

    Each line of the file has the following format:


    Name: <name> Surname: <surname> Address: <address> Phone: <phone_number>

    E.g. Name: Test Surname: Ana Address: Bucharest Phone: 0040122122

    Example: ./get_employ_name.py employ_list.txt


    #!/usr/bin/python
    import sys
    import re

    # procedure that reads a file and returns the text


    def read_file (filename):
    # open file for reading
    fid = open(filename,'r')
    # read the entire text in variable text
    text = fid.read()
    # close file after reading
    fid.close()

    return text

    # procedure that returns a tuple containing the name and surnames


    # Each file line has format:
    # Name: <name> Surname: <surname> Address: <address> Phone: <phone_number>
    # Returns a tuple of this type: [(<name>,<surname>)]
    def parse_text (txt):
    tuples = re.findall(r'Name:\s*(\S+)\s+Surname:\s*(\S+)', txt)
    return tuples

    # procedure that writes in a file the Name and Surname


    # File format:
    # Name: <name> Surname: <surname>
    def write_file (tuples):
    fout = open("filtered_employ_list.txt","w")

    for name_surname in tuples:


    # unpack the tuple into 2 vars
    (name,surname) = name_surname
    # generate the string in the correct format
    str_to_write = "Name: " + name + " Surname:" + surname + "\n"
    # write the string in the file
    fout.write(str_to_write)
    fout.close()

    def main():
    if len(sys.argv) != 2:
    print 'usage: ./get_employee_name.py file-to-read'
    sys.exit(1)

    file_text = read_file(sys.argv[1])
    print file_text
    filtered_text = parse_text(file_text)
    print filtered_text
    write_file(filtered_text)

    if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

    Exercise:
    1) Modify read_file procedure to read the file line by line
    2) Create read_file_list procedure that reads the file line by line and returns a list
    3) Create parse_list procedure that parses the list returned by read_file_list
    It will return Name, Surname and Phone only for employees that have “Address” field set to
    “Bucharest”
    E.g. Tuple format: [(<name>,<surname>,<phone>)]
    4) Modify write_file procedure to print on the first line the number of employees with “Address” as
    “Bucharest” and then the Name, Surname and Phone
    E.g. The output file will have the following format:
    Number of employees living in Bucharest:<number>
    Name: <name> <surname> Phone: <phone_number>

    5. employee_class.py - Script that creates Employee class and two methods

    Example: ./employee_class.py

    class Employee:
    'Common base class for all employees'
    # class variable that counts number of employees
    empCount = 0

    def __init__(self, name, salary):


    # object attributes
    self.name = name
    self.salary = salary
    # increase the employee count
    Employee.empCount += 1

    # method that displays the total number of employees


    def displayCount(self):
    print "Total Employee %d" % Employee.empCount

    # displays information about an Employee


    def displayEmployee(self):
    print "Name : ", self.name, ", Salary: ", self.salary

    #"This would create first object of Employee class"


    emp1 = Employee("Emp1", 2000)
    #"This would create second object of Employee class"
    emp2 = Employee("Emp2", 5000)

    emp1.displayEmployee()
    emp2.displayEmployee()
    print "Total Employee %d" % Employee.empCount

    Running example:
    $ python employee_class.py
    Name : Emp1 , Salary: 2000
    Name : Emp2 , Salary: 5000
    Total Employee 2

    Exercise:
    1) Create a class that will inherit Employee class – Manager class.
    The class will have mCount variable the will count the number of Manager objects
    The class constructor will have 3 arguments: name, salary and departments
    2) In Manager class create displayEmployee method that displays the name
    3) In Manager class create displayManager method that prints the departments he is assigned to
    4) Create 2 Manager objects. Call displayEmployee for both manager objects.
    5) Print the value of empCount from Employee and Manager

    6. Script for creating a client/server application


    server.py
    #!/usr/bin/python # This is server.py file

    import socket # Import socket module

    s = socket.socket() # Create a socket object


    host = socket.gethostname() # Get local machine name
    port = 12345 # Reserve a port for your service.
    s.bind((host, port)) # Bind to the port

    s.listen(5) # Now wait for client connection.


    while True:
    c, addr = s.accept() # Establish connection with client.
    print 'Got connection from', addr
    c.send('Thank you for connecting')
    c.close() # Close the connection

    client.py
    #!/usr/bin/python # This is client.py file

    import socket # Import socket module

    s = socket.socket() # Create a socket object


    host = socket.gethostname() # Get local machine name
    port = 12345 # Reserve a port for your service.

    s.connect((host, port))
    print s.recv(1024)
    s.close # Close the socket when done

    Running the client and server:


    # Following would start a server in background.
    $ python server.py &

    # Once server is started run client as follows:


    $ python client.py

    Exercise: Modify the script to send a message from client to the server and print it on the screen with
    appropriate label
    >> [client] Hi server!
    >> [server] Welcome user!
