1.1 INTRODUCTION TO SIWES

The Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES), also known as

Industrial Training is a compulsory skill training programme designed to expose and pre

pare students of Nigerian Universities, Polytechnics, College of Education, Colleges of

Technology and Colleges of Agriculture, for the industrial work situation they’re likely to

meet after graduation.

The scheme provides students with an opportunity to apply their theoretical

knowledge in real work situation, thereby bridging the gap between university work and

actual practice while ensuring the employer’s involvement in the entire educational process

of preparing university graduates for employment in industries. The main operators in the

SIWES programme are the ITF, the coordinating agencies (NUC), employers of labour and

the tertiary institutions. It is funded by the Federal Government of Nigeria, and beneficiaries

of the programme include undergraduate students of Agriculture, Engineering, Technology,

Environmental science, Education, Medical Science and the Pure and Applied Science.

Participation in SIWES has become a necessary pre-condition for the award of

Diploma and Degree certificates in specific disciplines in most institutions of higher learning

in the country, in accordance with the education policy of government.

1
1.2 Historical development of SIWES and ITF in Nigeria

The idea of the SIWES programme started in Cincinnati in USA in 1996. There was a

collaboration that evolved between the universities and industries for providing students

practical experiences. The programme basically involved students going through a form of

apprenticeship programme using the industries as an extension of the school laboratories. The

success of this programme brought a great awareness to a lot of higher institutions in

different countries of the world. (Microsoft Students Encarta 2008).

The idea was imported into Nigeria during the Second National Development Plan

between 1970 and 1974 in order to ameliorate the problem faced by graduates produced by

several institutions of learning within the country who find it difficult to render a qualitative

service in their areas of specialization for which they have been trained in their various

disciplines. The first thing the Federal Government did was to promulgate the ITF

programme through the decree NO. 47 of 1971 during the national development programme

in the post war era, to boost and develop the middle power level of the Nigerian economy.

The decree charged ITF with the basic aim of promoting and encouraging the

acquisition of skills in industry and commerce with a view to generating a pool of indigenous

trained manpower, sufficient to meet the needs of the economy.

The fund actually began operation not until its policy statement was introduced

alongside SIWES programme in 1973 after other thongs had been put into place such as

having staff strength of 10 persons in the professional cadre as of 1986 which has now grown

both headquarters and area offices. The staff strength of the ITF is approximately 1,400

senior and junior staff which it disburses its responsibilities in order to be able to meet

concentrations of industries and commerce. The fund has so far established area offices in 18

states capitals (including FCT) nationwide. (SIWES Orientation 2008)

2
 1.3 OBJECTIVE OF SIWES

The Industrial Training Fund was charged with the responsibility of promoting and

acquiring the application of basic skills in industrial and commercial fields. I.T.F has done so

much to achieve the aims of SIWES in that, it has the following aims:

1. Enhancing the industrial skill acquisition and work experience of students thus augmenting

their theoretical knowledge to make them efficient at solving the practical problems at their

respective work environment.

2. To enable the students to understand the company operation and function thereby building

interpersonal relationships (between students and work community) and a high sense of

responsibility.

3. A governmental agency known as Industrial Trust Fund (ITF) in collaboration with the

Nigerian Universities to expose students to the practical aspects of his/her course of study.

4. To promote the desired technological know-how for the development of this nation.

5. To provide an avenue for students in institutions of higher learning to acquire industrial skills

and experience in their course of study especially Engineering and Technology.

6. To enable the students to match theoretical knowledge with the application in the industry.

7. Ensuring the involvement of the related industries and organizations in the training,

education, exposure, and development process of the students which they will in turn employ

as their staffs after their academic experience.

 CHAPTER THREE

3.1 PYTHON

Python is a widely used high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic

programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax

allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in

languages such as C++ or Java. The language provides constructs intended to enable clear

programs on both a small and large scale.

Python supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented,

imperative and functional programming or procedural styles. It features a dynamic type

system and automatic memory management and has a large and comprehensive standard

library. Python interpreters are available for installation on many operating systems, allowing

Python code execution on a wide variety of systems.

3.2 SCRIPTING LANGUAGE

A scripting or script language is a programming language that supports scripts,

programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that

could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator.

Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Environments that

can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web

browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous

games.

A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular

environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension

language. Scripting languages are also sometimes referred to as very high-level

5
programming languages, as they operate at a high level of abstraction, or as control

languages.

3.3 OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm based on the

concept of "objects", which may contain data, in the form of fields, often known as attributes;

and code, in the form of procedures, often known as methods. A distinguishing feature of

objects is that an object's procedures can access and often modify the data fields of the object

with which they are associated (objects have a notion of "this" or "self").

In OO programming, computer programs are designed by making them out of objects that

interact with one another. There is significant diversity in object-oriented programming, but

most popular languages are class-based, meaning that objects are instances of classes, which

typically also determine their type.

3.4 HISTORY

Python was conceived in the late 1980s, and its implementation was started in

December 1989 by Guido van Rossum at CWI in the Netherlands as a successor to the ABC

language (itself inspired by SETL) capable of exception handling and interfacing with the

Amoeba operating system. Van Rossum is Python's principal author, and his continuing

central role in deciding the direction of Python is reflected in the title given to him by the

Python community, benevolent dictator for life (BDFL).

“Python is an experiment in how much freedom programmers need. Too much

freedom and nobody can read another's code;

too little and expressiveness is endangered.”

6
 - Guido van Rossum

About the origin of Python, Van Rossum wrote in

1996:

Over six years ago, in December 1989, I was

looking for a "hobby" programming project that

would keep me occupied during the week around

Christmas. My office ... would be closed, but I had

a home Computer, and not much else on my hands.

I decided to write an interpreter for the new scripting

language I had been thinking about lately: a

descendant of ABC that would appeal to Unix/C

hackers. I chose Python as a working title for the project, being in a slightly irreverent mood (and a big fan of

Monty Python's Flying Circus).

Figure 1 Van Rossum

3.5 DOWNLOADING PYTHON

If you don’t already have a copy of Python installed on your computer, you will need to open

up your Internet browser and go to the Python download page.

(http://www.python.org/download/).

Figure 2 pyton downlod page

7
Now that you are on the download page, select which of the software builds you would like

to download. For the purposes of this article we will use the most up to date version available

(Python 3.4.1).

Figure 3 download version

Figure 4 note release

Once you have clicked on that, you will be taken to a page with a description of all the new

updates and features of 3.4.1, however, you can always read that while the download is in

process. Scroll to the bottom of the page till you find the “Download” section and click on the

link that says “download page.”

Now you will scroll all the way to the bottom of the page and find the “Windows x86 MSI

installer.” If you want to download the 86-64 bit MSI, feel free to do so. We believe that even

if you have a 64-bit operating system installed on your computer, the 86-bit MSI is

preferable. We say this because it will still run well and sometimes, with the 64- bit

architectures, some of the compiled binaries and Python libraries don’t work well.

8
3.6 Figure 5 operating system selection
INSTALLING PYTHON

Once you have downloaded the Python MSI, simply navigate to the download location on

your computer, double clicking the file and pressing Run when the dialog box pops up.

Figure 6 python installation

If you are the only person who uses your computer, simply leave the “Install for all users”

option selected. If you have multiple accounts on your PC and don’t want to

install it across all accounts, select the “Install just for me” option then press “Next.”

9
Figure 7 installation

If you want to change the install location, feel free to do so; however, it is best to leave it as is

and simply select next, Otherwise...

Scroll down in the window and find the “Add Python.exe to Path” and click on the small red

“x.” Choose the “Will be installed on local hard drive” option then press “Next.”

Figure 8 features to be installed

10
Now that you have completed the installation process, click on “Finish.

Figure 9 complete installation

3.7 SETUP PATH VARIABLE

Begin by opening the start menu and typing in “environment” and select the option called

“Edit the system environment variables.”

When the “System Properties” window appears, click on “Environment Variables…”

Once you have the “Environment Variables” window open, direct your focus to the bottom

half. You will notice that it controls all the “System Variables” rather than just this associated

with your user. Click on “New…” to create a new variable for Python.

11
Figure 10 create a new system variable

Simply enter a name for your Path and

the code shown below. For the

purposes of this example we have

installed Python 2.7.3, so we will call

the path: “Pythonpath.” The string that

you will need to enter is:

“C:\Python27\;C:\Python27\Scripts;”

Figure 11 new system variable

3.8 RUNNING THE PYTHON IDE

Now that we have successfully completed the installation process and added our

“Environment Variable,” you are ready to create your first basic Python script. Let’s begin by

opening Python’s GUI by pressing “Start” and typing “Python” and selecting the “IDLE

(Python GUI).”

12
Figure 12 Running python IDE

Once the GUI is open, we will begin by using the simplest directive possible. This is the

“print” directive which simply prints whatever you tell it to, into a new line. Start by typing a

print directive like the one shown in the image below or copy and paste

this text then press “Enter”: print (“Congratulations on executing your first print directive!”).

Figure 13 Python GUI

3.9 PYTHON CODE EXECUTION

13
Python’s traditional runtime execution model: source code you type is translated to byte code,

which is then run by the Python Virtual Machine. Your code is automatically compiled, but

then it is interpreted.

Figure 14 source code

Source code extension is .py

Byte code extension is .pyc (compiled python code)

CHAPTER FOUR

4.1 BASIC SYNTAX

Python provides two ways to run a program:

 Using Interactive interpreter

 Using a script file

4.2 INTERACTIVE INTERPRETER PROMPT

Python provide us the feature to execute the python statement one by one at the

interactive prompt. It is preferable in the case where we are concerned about the output of

each line.

To open the interactive mode, open the terminal (or command prompt) and type

python (python3 in case if you have both python2 and python3 installed on your system). It

14
will open the prompt where we can execute the python statement and check its impact on the

console.

Python3 provides print () function to print some message on the console. We can pass

message as a string into this function. Here we get the message “hello World!” printed on the

console.

>>> print(“Hello World”)

Hello World!

4.3 USING A SCRIPT FILE

Interpreter prompt is good to run the individual statements of code. However, we can not

write the code every-time on the terminal. We need to write our code into a file which can be

executed later. For this purpose, open an editor like notepad, create a file named first.py

(python used .py extension) and write the following code in it.

Print (“Hello World”); #here, we have used print() function to print the message on the

console. To run the file named as first.py, we need to run the following command on the

terminal

C:\Users\Your Name>python first.py

4.4 PYTHON INDENTATION

Indentation refers to the spaces at the beginning of a code line, where in other programming

languages the indentation is for readability only, the indentation in Python is very important.

Python uses indentation to indicate a block of code.

Example:

if 5 > 2:
print("Five is greater than two!")
Python will give error if you skip the indentation

if 5 > 2:
print("Five is greater than two!") #syntax error

15
You have to use the same number of spaces in the same block of code, otherwise python will

give you an error:

if 5 > 2:
print("Five is greater than two!")
print("Five is greater than
two!") #syntax error

4.5 PYTHON COMMENTS

Comments can be used to explain Python code.

Comments can be used to make the code more readable.

Comments can be used to prevent execution when testing code.

Creating a comment

Comments starts with a #, and Python will ignore them:

Example:

#This is a comment
print("Hello, World!")
Comments can be placed at the end of a line and python will ignore the rest of the line.

Example:

print("Hello, World!") #This is a comment

A comment does not have to be text that explains the code, it can also be used to prevent

Python from executing code:

#print("Hello, World!")
print("Cheers, Mate!")

4.6 MULTI LINE COMMENTS

Python does not really have a syntax for multi-line comments. To add a multiline comment

you could insert a # for each line:

16
#This is a comment
#written in
# more than just one line
print("Hello, World!")
Or you can use a multiline string, since Python will ignore string Literals that are not

assigned to a variable, you can add a multiline string (triple quotes) in your code, and place

your comment inside it:

"""
This is a comment
written in
more than one line
"""
print("Hello, World!")

CHAPTER FIVE

5.1 PYTHON DATA TYPES

A data type is a value and they are the core to the programming language. In programming

language, data type is an important concept, variable can store different data types and

different types can do different things.

Python has the following data types built-in by default, in these categories:

Text Type str

Numeric Types Int, float, complex

Sequence Types List, tuple, range

Mapping types Dict

Set types Set, frozenset

Boolean types Bool

17
 None types none

Table 1Datatypes

Numeric Types

int: This is used for integers and these are numbers that do not contain decimal points for

example 2, 6, 8, etc.

floats: The floats represent floating points numbers and these are numbers that contains

decimal places. Examples are 3.14, 0.25, 0.75 etc. and any thing that has decimal point.

complex: This represent numbers with real and imaginary factors. Examples; 2+5x, 2-3x.

Sequence Types

str: This represents strings of characters such as “Hello”, “hi”, “Python”

The list: this represent an order collection of items enclosed in square bracket ([]) such as [1,

2, 3, 4…], [“orange”, “mango”, “pineapple”]

tuple () – the tuple represents an ordered immutable collections of items enclosed in

parenthesis (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Mapping Type

Dict: It can be referred to as dictionary. This represent a collection of key-value pairs

enclosed in curly bracket ({}), such as: X = { “name” : “John”, “age” : 36}.

Set Type

Set represents an ordered collection of unique items enclosed in curly braces such as {1, 2, 3}

NUMERIC DATA TYPE

#int #Floats # complex

x = 3 a = -1.1 d = 27j
y = 4 b = 12.7 e = 3+19e
z = -10 c = 9.97521 f = 15+1d
print(x) print(a) print(d)
print(y) print(b) print(e)
print(z) print(c) print(f)

18
 print(type(x)) print(type(d))
print(type(y)) print(type(e))
print(type(z)) print(type(f))

Frozenset: this represent an immutable set enclosed in parenthesis such as ({1, 2, 3, 4})

Boolean Type

Bool: this represent TRUE or FALSE

None type: This represent the absence of a value often used to indicate a null or empty value.

Examples:

SEQUENCE DATA TYPE

#string #list #tuple

g = "Hello" j = [1, 2, 3,4] l = (1, 2, 3)
h = 'python' k = ['apple', 'orange', m = ("Ade", "Olu",
i = '1 2 3' 'mango'] "John")
print(type(g)) print(j) print(l)
print(type(h)) print(k) print(m)
print(type(i)) print(type(j)) print(type(l))
print(type(k)) print(type(m))

MAPPING DATA TYPE

Dictionary = {
"lastname" : "Doe",
"firstname" : "John",
"age" : 29,
"city" : "Lagos"
}
print(Dictionary)

19
Other examples are:

Example Data Type

x = range(6) range
print(x)
print(type(x))
fruit = {"apple", "banana", "cherry"} set
print(fruit)
print(type(fruit))

x = frozenset({"apple", "banana", "cherry"}) Frozenset

print(x)
print(type(x))

x = True bool
print(x)
print(type(x))

5.2 VARIABLE

A variable is a container, which stores value. e.g. x = 5 (where the x is the variable).

A variable does not need to be declared with any particular type and the type can also be

changed after they have been set. Below is the syntax:

Variable – name = value

How to create a variable

Example:

lastname = "guide"
age = 14
fruit = ("orange", "mango", "pineapple")#this variable carry a
particular datatype or value

20
Naming Variable

Variable names can be a group of both letters and digits, but they have to begin with a letter

or an underscore and recommended using lowercase letters.

A variable can have a short name like x, y, and can also have a more descriptive name like

age, grade, etc.

The rules to name python variables are the following:

 The first character of the variable must be an alphabet or underscore (_).

 All the characters except the first character may be an alphabet of lower-case (a-z),

upper-case (A-Z), underscore or digit (0-9).

 variable name must not contain any white-space, or special character (! @, #, %, ^, &,

*).

 variable name must not be similar to any keyword defined in the language.

 variable name are case sensitive for example; my name, and MyName is not the same.

 Examples of valid identifiers; a123, _n, n_9, etc.

 Examples of invalid identifiers; 1a, n%4, n 9, etc.

Variables that contain multi-words can be declared using several techniques to make them

more readable.

Camel case – each word start with a capital letter except the first one e.g. ageJohn = 29,
myNewState = “Lagos”
# data type - integer
ageJohn = 29
print(ageJohn)
print(type(age))
Pascal case – Each words start with a capital letter e.g. LastName = “George”

# data type - string

LastName = “George”

21
print(LastName)
print(type(LastName))
Snake case - Each word is separated by an underscore. E.g. theother_name = “Cain”

# data type - string

theother_name = “Cain”
print(LastName)
(class of string)

Assigning Multiple Variables

Python allow us to assign a value to multiple variables in a single statement which is also

known as multiple assignments.

We can apply multiple assignments in two ways either by assigning a single value to multiple

variables or assigning multiple values to multiple variables.

Examples:

# assigning single value to multiple variables

x=y=zq=50
print(x)
print(y)
print(z)
# assigning multiple values to multiple variables
a,b,c = 5,10,15
print(a)
print(b)
print(c)

5.3 PYTHON OPERATORS

The operator can be defined as a symbol which is responsible for a particular operation

between operands.

22
Arithmetic operators are used for mathematical calculations and includes; addition,

subtraction, multiplication, division and others.

Operator Example Meaning

x = 57
y = 4
+ Addition
print(x + y) #61
_ Subtraction
print(x - y) #53
* print(x * y) #228 Multiplication
/ print(x / y) #14.25 Division
% print(x % y) #1 Modulus – returns
remainder after a division
** print(x ** y) # Exponent – left value raise
10,556,001 to the power of the right
one.
// print(x // y) #14 Floor division - Return the
direct integer without its
float

Assignment Operators

They are the operators that are used to assign value to the variables. They combined their

assignment operation with another operation making it more concise to update the value.

Operator Meaning Example

= equal to It assign value on the right a = 15

to the value on the left
+= addition assignment Add the value on the right to a += 5
the variable current value print(a)
and assign the result back to
the variable
-= subtraction assignment Subtract the value on the a -= 5

23
 right from the variable print(a)
current value and assign the
result back to the variable
*= multiplication Multiply the variable current a *= 5
assignment value by the right value and print(a)
assign the result back to the
variable
/= division assignment Divides the variable current a /= 5
value by the value on the print(a)
right and assign the result
back to the variable.
** exponential assignment Raises the variable current a **= 5
value to the power of the print(a)
value on the right and
assigns the result back to the
variable
%= modulo assignment It performs modulo a += 5
operation with the variable print(a)
current value and value on
the right then assign the
result back to the variable
//= floor division assignment It performs floor division a += 5
with the variable current print(a)
value and value on the right
then assign the result back to
the variable

Comparison operators: they are used to compare two values. They return a Boolean value

(true/false) based on comparison result.

Operator Meaning Example

c= 17
d=4

24
 > This checks if the left value print(c > d)#true
is greater than the right
value
< Checks if the left value is print(c > d)#false
less than the right value
== Checks if the two values are print(c == d)#false
equal
!= Checks if the two values are print(c != d)#true
not equal
>= The greater than or equal to print(c >= d)#true
checks if the value on the
left is greater than or equal
to the right value and the
<= The less than or equal to print(c <= d)#false
checks if the value on the
left is less than or equal to
the right value and the

Logical Operators

These are used to combine and manipulate boolean values. Logical operators are used to

combine conditional statements

and: the ‘and’ operator returns true, if both left and right expression are true: otherwise is

returned false.

or: the or operator return true if one of the left or right expression is true. If both expressions

are false, it returns false.

not: the not operator negates the true – false of an expression, it returns true when an

expression is false and return false when an expression is true.

Example:

25
x = 5
y = 10
z = 3
a = (x<y) and (z<y)#true
b = (x<y) and (y<z)#false
c = (x<y) or (z<x)#true
d = (x<y) or (y<z)#true
e = (x>y) or (y<z)#false

Python Identity Operators

Python identity operators are used to compare the objects , not if they are equal but if they are

acqually the same objects with the same memory location

is Returns true if both variable are true.

is not Returns true if both variable are not the
same

x = ["orange", "mango", "pinapple"]

y = ["orange", "apple", "mango"]
print(x is z)#true
print(x is y)#false
print(x == y)#false
print(x is not y)#true
print(x is not z)#false
print(x != z)#false

Python Membership Operator

Membership operator are used to test if a sequence is presented in an object.

in Returns true if a sequence with the specified

value is present in the object
Not in Returns true if a sequence with the specified
value is not present in the object

26
x = ["orange", "mango", "pinapple"]
y = ["orange", "apple", "mango"]
print("apple" in x)
print("mango" in x)
print("apple" not in x)
print("mango" not in x)

5.4 PYTHON CASTING

Python casting is used to specify the type of data on a variable. We can call it type

conversion, int(), float(), str().

a = 2.4
b = 12
c = "Hello"
d = int(a)
e = float(b)
c = int(c)
print(type(a))
print(type(b))

5.5 STRING

#multi line string

About_Ade = '''
Ade is a boy
He is 10 years old
He is in primary 5
He loves to play football
'''
#loop in string
fruit = "banana"

27
for x in fruit:
print(x)

String Length

The len() function returns the total number of the string/text.

print(len(fruit))
print(len(About_Ade))

Check String

word = "lorem ipsum doleh satamet video a powerful way of presenting

"
print("lorem in word")
print("save" not in word)

String Modification

Upper method: this return the string in upper case.

Lower method: this returns the string in lower case

Strip method: this removes the width space from the beginning to the end

Replace method: this replace a string with another string

Split method: this returns a list where the text between the specified separator becomes a

string list item.

Capitalized method: this convert the first character to upper case

greeting = "Hello, how are you Tunde"

print(greeting.upper())
print(greeting.lower())
print(greeting.strip())
print(greeting.replace("Tunde", 'Bayo'))
print(greeting.split(“, ”))
print(greeting.capitalize())

28
Format String

We use the format method to format string and we have to place the curly brace ({}) into the

string to be formatted.

ageJude = 39
stJude = "Jude is {}years old"
print(stJude.format(ageJude))

6.1 INPUT FUNCTION

The input function is used to prompt the user for input from the keyboard. It also allows you

to interact with the user and obtain data during the execution of a program. The input() takes

an optional string argument known as “PROMPT” which is displayed to the user before

waiting for the input. the user can then type their response and presenter. The input() reads

the user input as a string and returns it as a result.

name = input("what is your name ?")

print("Hi", + name)
age = input("How old are you ?")
age = int(age)
print(type(age))

6.2 STATEMEMT AND EXPRESSION

A statement is a complete instruction that performs an action. It is usually consists of

keywords, operators, variables and other elements that produce a specific effect. Statement

does not produce a variable as a result.

Example of statement includes variable assignment, conditional statement (i.e if-else

statement).

29
x = 9#variable assignment
print("Hello")#function call statement
if y>x:#conditional statement
print("hello Y")

Expression is a collaboration of values, variables, operators and functions call that evaluates

a value. Expression can be simple or complex and they produce a value as a result.

Expressions can be used with conditional statement to perform computation or produce a

value.

Example of expression includes Arithmetic operations, function call, logical operation like

accessing elements of a data structure.

x = 8 + 9 #arithmetic expression
y = math.sqrt((a)) #function call expression
is_positive = x > 0 #comparision expression
result = (x + y)*2 #complex expression

6.3 PYTHON LIST

In python, a list is a versatile and notable data structure that can hold an ordered collection of

items. List are denoted by [] (square bracket) and the items within the list are separated by

commas, each list item is called “ELEMENT”.

Example:

cars = ["volvo", "suzuki", "Honda", "toyota", "BMW"]

print(cars)
print(type(cars))
print(cars[3])
cars[4] = "benz"
print(cars)

Range Of Index

30
We can use the range of index to specify where to start and end the range.

print(cars[1:4])
print(cars[:4])
#change of items in the list
cars[1:4] = ["Hyundai", "Ford", "Lexux"]

Insert Items

To insert a new list items without replacing any of the existing value, you can use the insert()

method. The insert() method insert item at the specified index.

cars.insert(2,"Honda")
print(cars)

6.3.1 ADDING LIST ITEMS

Append() method: the append() method is used to ass an item to the end of the list.

cars.append("kia")
print(cars)

The Extend Method

It is used to append elements from another list to the current list.

SportCars = ["Mclaren", "Ferrari", "Buggati"]

cars.extend
SportCars.extend(cars)
other_cars = ("forstar", "Innoson", "BMW")
cars.extend(other_cars)

6.3.2 DELETING LIST ITEMS

Remove method: this removes the specified items.

cars.remove("Benz")

31
Pop() method: the pop() method removes the specified items. It also removes the last

element in the list

cars.pop(3)
print(cars)

Using The Delete Keyword (Del)

The del keyword removes an element with a specified index.8

del cars[5]
print(cars)

The Clear Method: this empty the list unlike the del. The list remains but has no content.

cars.clear()
print(cars)
#result = []

6.3.3 LOOPING THROUGH A LIST

There are several ways in looping through a list.

RandomStuff = ["apple", "mango", "orange", "grape", 1, 2, 3,4, 5,

10]
for x in RandomStuff:
print(x)

Looping through the index number

We can loop through the list items by referring to their index numbers, we use the range, len

function to create a suitable iterable.

name = ["John","Jake", "Joseph", "Joseph"]

for i in range(len(name)):
print(i)
print(name[i])

32
Using a while loop : you can loop through the list items by using a WHILE loop. Use len()

function to determine the length of the list and start at 0 and loop your way to the list by

referring to their indexes. Remember to increase the index by 1 after each iteration.

evenNum = [2, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 16]

i = 0
while i < len(evenNum):
print(evenNum[i])

Sorting List: to sort through list items, we use sort method Sort().

newnames = ["Ben", "Adam", "James","Samantha", "Calvin"]

numbers = [1, 3, 70, 90, 11, 2, 4, 100, 5]
#ascending order
newnames.sort()
print(newnames)
print(numbers)
# descending order
newnames.sort(reverse=True)
print(newnames)
numbers.sort(reverse=True)
print(numbers)
evenodd = [2, 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 5]
evenodd.reverse()
print(evenodd)

Copying List

You cannot copy a listby simply typing list 2 = list 1 because list 2 will only be referenced to

list one and changes made in list 1 will automatically be made in list 2.

33
list1 = ["apple", "onions", "mango", "banana"]
list2 = list1.copy()
print(list2)

6.3.4 JOINING LIST

The easiest way to join list is using the + operator for concatenation.

list1 = ["a", "b", "c"]

list2 = [1, 2, 3]
list3 = [list1 + list2]
print(list3)

Another way to join lists is by appending all the items form one list to another one by one.

list1 = ["a", "b", "c"]

list2 = [1, 2, 3]
for x in list2:
list1.append(x)
print(list1)

The extend method can be use where the purpose is to add elements from one list to another.

list1 = ["a", "b", "c"]

list2 = [1, 2, 3]
list1.extend(list2)
print(list1)

Range Of Index

print(range(1, 100))
print(list(range(1, 100)))
fruits = ["orange", "mango", "apple", "banana", "pineapple",
"cherry", "strawberry", "lemon", "guava"]
print(len(fruits))

34
print(fruits[-1]) # negative effects (just one)
print(fruits[1::])# printed all
print(fruits[:5])# print orange - pineapple

While Listing

num = list(range(1,101))
i = 0
while i < len(num):
print(i)
i = i + 2

Join Method: it can be used to join elements in a list.

fruits = ["mango", "banana", "orange", "pineapple", "apple",

"cashew"]
print("!".join(fruits))
#output
#mango! banana! orange! pineapple! apple! cashew!

7.1 SET

Set is an unordered collection of unique elements. It is a built-in data structure that provide

several methods for performing set operations, such as union, intersection, difference and

more.

Set is used to store multiple items in a variable. Set is unordered and unindexed, set items are

unchangeable and do not allow duplicate value. once set is created, you cannot change its

items but you can add new items.

Creating a set

35
You can create a set by enclosing comma separated elements within a curly bracket or by

using the set() method.

# creating set with curly braces

num1 = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7}
print(num1)
print(type(num1))
# cretaing set withh the set() method
num2 = set(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7)
print(num2)
print(type(num2))
# using loop to access on set function
for i in num1:
print(i)

7.1.1 ADDING TO A SET

The add method (add()) is used to add one item to a set.

num1.add(8)
print(8)

Update method: it is used to add items from another into the current set.

num1.update(num2)
print(num1)
num1.update(fruits)
print(num1)

7.1.2 REMOVE SET ITEM

To remove set items, you can either make use if remove or the discard method.

num1.remove(2)
num1.discard("banana")
print(num1)
Pop Method: the pop method delete the last element in the set
36
y = num1.pop()
print(y)
print(num1)

The clear method: the clear method empties the set.

num1.clear()
print(num1)
Delete method: it delete the set completely

del.num1
print(num1)

7.1.3 LOOPING SET

fruits = {"orange", "mango", "cherry", "apple", "strawberry"}

for x in fruits:
print(x)

7.1.4 JOINING SET

Union():

fruits = {"orange", "mango", "pineapple", "strawberry", "apple"}

phones = {"nokia", "motorola", "samsung", "techno", "apple"}
fruits.update(phones)
joining = fruits.union(phones)
print(joining)
print(fruits)
phones.update(fruits)
print(fruits)

37
Intersection_Update: the intersection_update() keeps only the items that are present in both

sets.

Intersection: the intersection() method will return a new set, that contains only the items

present in both sets.

fruits.intersection_update(phones)
print(fruits)
intersect = fruits.intersection(phones)
print(intersect) #apple

Symmetric_difference_update: the symmetric_diffrence_update will keep only the

elements that are not present in both sets. (opposite of the intersection_update).

Symmetric_difference: it will return a new set, that contains only the elements that are not

present in both set.

Copy method: the copy() returns a copy of the set.

fruits.symmetric_difference_update(phones)
print(fruits)
fruits.symmetric_difference(phones)
print(fruits)

num = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0}
numbers = num.copy()
print(numbers)

7.1.5 SUPER SET AND SUB-SET

super = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}

sub1 = {2, 3, 4}
sub2 ={11, 12, 13}
x = sub2.issubset(super)
y = sub1.issubset(super)

38
z = super.intersection(sub2)
print(z)

The Superset()

This return ‘True’ when the super set contains another set.

p =super.issuperset(sub1)
q = super.issuperset(sub2)
print(p)
print(q)

8.1 DICTIONARY

Dictionaries are used to store data in key;value pairs.

A dictionaries is a collection which is ordered, unchangeable and do not allow duplicate.

person = {
"lastname": "Doe",
"firstname": "John",
"age": 39,
'isEmployed': True,
}
print(person)
print(type(person))

How to access dictionary items

Making use of the key

39
age1 = person["age"]
print(age1)

Get() Method

person_age = person.get("age")
print(person_age)

Keys(): this return the lists of the keys in the dictionary.

x = person.keys()
print(x)

Get values(): this returns the list of all values in the dictionary.

y = person.values()
print(y)

Items(): this method will return each items in the dictionary as tuple in a list.

Changing dictionary items

person[age] = 40
age = person[age]
print(age)
print(person)

Update(): this update dictionary with items from a given argument. The argument must be a

dictionary or an iterable with the key;values pair.

person.update({"lastname": "Wood"})
print(person)

8.1.1 ADDING DICTIONARY ITEMS

40
person.update({"is married": True})
print(person)
person2 = {
"lastname": "King",
"firstname": "Joshua",
"age": 28
'isMarried': True,
}
for x in person2:
print(x)
for x in person2:
print(person2[x])
for x in person2.keys():
print(x)
for x in person2.values:
print(x)
for x, y in person2.items():
print(x, y)
Copy in dictionary

To copy dictionary, you can make use of the copy() method

theperson = person2.copy()
print(theperson)
dict()
second_person = dict(person2)
print(second_person)
firstperson = dict(person)
print(person)

8.1.2 NESTED DICTIONARY

This is a dictionary that has another dictionary in it

41
Family = {
"Father":{
"lastname": "Oladele",
"firstname": "Matthew",
"age": 47,
},
"Mother":{
"lastname": "Oladele",
"firstname": "Mary",
"age": 45,
},
"Child":{
"lastname": "Oladele",
"firstname": "Esther",
"age": 23,
}
}
print(Family)
mutd = {
"keeper": "Onana",
"defenders": ["Shaw", "Maguire", "Dalot", "Varane"],
"midfielders": ["Bruno", "Caseming", "Mount"],
"attackers": ["Sancho", "Rashford", "Rasmud"],
}
mcty = {
"keeper": "Ederson",
"defenders": ["Stones", "Laporte", "Ake", "Akanji"],
"midfielders": ["Kelvin", "Rodri", "Foden"],
"attackers": ["Jack", "Haaland", "Silva"]
}
manchester ={
"mutd" :mutd,
"mcty" :mcty,

42
 }
print(manchester)
print(mutd["defenders"])
print(mutd["defenders"][1])

Pop Method

This is used toremove a specified item from the dictionary.

mutd.pop("attackers")
print(mutd)
attackers = mutd.pop("attackers")

9.1 TUPLES

Tuples are used to store multiple

items in a single variable. A tuple is a collection which is ordered and unchangeable. Tuple

is one of the four built-in datatype in python used to store collection of data.

cars = ("Toyota", "Benz", "BMW", "Volkswagen", "Bentley")

# Tuples are written in parentheses
# Tuple items are ordered and unchangeable and allow duplicate
values
print(cars)
print(type(cars))
print(cars[2])
print(cars[1:4])
print(cars[0:5:2])

43
print(cars[-1])
print(cars[-1:-6:-2])

Updating Tuple

Tuples are unchangeable, meaning you cannot change, add or remove items once the tuple is

created, but there are some ways it can be created.

Append methodology is to ass value to your tuple.

cars = ("Toyota", "Honda", "Benz", "Acura", "BMW")

y = list(cars)
y[0] = "Suzuki"
cars = tuple(y)
print(cars)
y = list(cars)
y.append("Toyota")
cars = tuple(y)
print(cars)

9.1.1 REMOVING ITEMS

Converting our tuple to list and remove whatever we want.

y = list(cars)
y.remove(("Acura"))
cars = tuple(y)
print(cars)

9.1.2 DELETE TUPLE

The del keyword can delete a tuple completely

del(cars)
print(cars)

44
9.1.3 LOOPING IN A TUPLE

# for looping
for x in range(len(cars)):
print(cars[x])
#while looping
i = 0
while i < len(cars):
print(cars[i])
i = i + 1

9.1.4 JOIN TUPLES

We can make use of concatenation(+) and the multiplication sign(*) to manipulate tuple.

bikes = ("suzuki","Bajaj", "Honda")

vehicles = cars + bikes
print(vehicles)
bikes = bikes*2
print(bikes)

10.1 PYTHON CONDITIONAL STATEMENT

In python, conditional structures are used to make decision in your code. The most common

ones are “if”, “else”, “elif”.

“if” statement is the fundamental control statement that allows you to make decision in your

code based on certain. It enables you to execute a block of code put into the conditional

statement time to time.

# if statement syntax
if condition:
code to be executed if the condition is true:
x = 7
if x > 5:

45
 print("x is greater than 5")
age = 12

Python “else” is another control statement that can be used in conjunction with the”if”

statement. It also specifies a block of code to be executed when the condition of the “if”

statement is not true.

#if - else syntax

if condition:
code to run if true:
else:
code to run if false

if age > 17:

print("you are okay to start driving")
else:
print("permission declined")
Elif: the “elif” in python stands for else-if and it is used to add more conditions to the
branching logic of if statement. The “elif” allows you to check multiple condition one by one
until one of them evaluates false.
#elif (else - if) syntax
if condition:
code to run if true
elif condition:
code to run if true
else:
code to run

score = int(input('Enter student score'))

if score <= 39:
print("Repeat")
elif score <= 49:
print("Resit")

46
elif score <= 100:
print("Promote")
elif score > 100:
print("Out of grading")

10.1.1 TENARY OPERATORS

It is used to make writng the elif statement concise

# value if true if condition else value if false

x = 7
result = "x is greater than 5" if x > 5 else "x is less than 5"

print(result)
z = 10
result = "z is an even number" if z % 2 == 0 else "z is an odd
number"
print(result)

11..1 LOOP

A loop in programming is a control statement that allows you to execute a block of code

repeatedly. It is used when you want to perform the syntax or a series of task multiple times.

Python has two primitive loop commands:

 While loop

 For loop

11.1.1 WHILE LOOP

A while loop is used when you want to repeat a block of code as long as a certain condition is
true. It does not require you to know the exact number of iteration before hand.
syntax:
while condition:

47
 code to run
the loop will continue so far the condition is true.

n = 0
while n < 21:
print(n)
n += 1

cars = ["Toyota", "Benz", "BMW", "Volkswagon", "Nissan", "Mazda"]

i = 0
while i < len(cars):
print(cars[i])
i += 1

11.1.2 FOR LOOP

A for loop is used for iterating over a sequence (i.e. a list, tuple, dictionary, set or string).

With the for loop, we can execute a set of statements, one for each item in a sequence.

the syntax for for loop is :

for var in range(start value, stop value)

for x in range (1,10):

print(x)
for i in range(10):
print(i)

11.1.3 BREAK STATEMENT

With the break statement, we can stop the loop before it has looped through all the items.

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "mango"]

for x in fruits:
print(x)
if x == "banana":

48
 break
print(x)

11.1.4 CONTINUE STATEMENT

The continue statement stop the current iteration of the loop and continue with the next

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry", "mango"]

for x in fruits:
print(x)
if x == "banana":
continue
print(x)

12.1 FUNCTION

A function is a block of code which runs only when it is called. You can pass data known as

parameter into a function.

A function can return data as a result. A function is a block of organized, reuseable code that

performs a specific task.

It takes input i.e. argument, process that input, and then returns a result. Function are

modular, making it easier to break down complex tasks into a smaller manageable part.

Creating a function

49
In python, a function is defined using the “def” keyword.

# FUNCTION
def funct(): # creating a function
print("this is for python function") # code to run
funct() # calling a function

def Function Name(parameter):

#blocks of code
return result

def keyword: the def keyword is used to define a function.

Function name: the name given to the function

The parameters: These are input values that the function may receive.

The return keyword: this keyword id used to specify what value the function should send

back as output. This is optional.

def name(lname):
print("my last name is " + lname)
name('Ojo')
name('Adewale')
name('Bamisaye')

def numbers(a, b, c):

return a + b * c
print(numbers(1, 2, 3))
print(numbers(17, 4, 3))
def reverse_string():
letter = "Hello World"

50
 print(letter[::-1])
print(letter[2:7])

reverse_string()

12.1.1 RETURN

Python return statement is a special statement that is used to end the execution of a function

and send back a value to the caller. The return can be any python object such as number,

string, list, dictionary or function.

def get_coordinate(x, y):

return (x, y)

point = get_coordinate(10, 70)

print(point)

12.1.2 ARBITRARY ARGUMENT (*args)

The *args syntax in python is used to pass a variable number of arguments to a function. It is

a special type of parameter that can be used to pass any number of argument to a function

regardless of how many arguments the function was originally defined to take.

The *args parameter is a tuple which means that all of the argument pass to the function are

stored as tuple.

# *args
def sum_all(*args):
total = 0
for number in args:

51
 total += number
return total
x = sum_all(2,3, 4)
y = sum_all(7, 9, 14, 22, 8, 9, 15)
print(x)
print(y)

12.1.3 APPLICATION OF PYTHON IN AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING

Agriculture has been around, in some form or another, forever. In the form we

know it today, agriculture has been around for over 12,000 years. Amazing, isn’t it? So, how

could this ancient field be improved and taken to a whole new level?.

How can we boost the results of various agriculture processes and improve the lives of those

who dedicate their time to farming, seeding and growing the food and supplements we all

need? Well, the answer is quite simple and there are hundreds of people creating and

developing new creative and innovative solutions for this field: Coding.

Not so long ago a new field in technology was funded, we are talking about Agritech. The

concept “Agritech” is a mix of the words Agriculture and Technology; and understanding the

principle that every field or industry can be improved with innovative and digital thinking,

agriculture didn’t want to be left behind.

Some of the application of python in agricultural engineering includes:

 Soil and water conservation modelling

 Irrigation modelling and design

 Drainage modelling and design

 Geospatial technologies and application for regional agricultural planning

 Sensor based applications for automation in agricultural engineering

 Measurement and data analysis in agriculture, etc.

52
12.1.4 SOME SIGNIFICANT TECHNOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENTS FOR

AGRICULTURE

Every positive change is the result of a long process of observation and the application of a

vast skill set such as innovation, analytical thinking, creativity and teamwork (because most

successful projects aren’t done in solo-mode). By observing the challenges agriculture has

had for thousands of decades, many praiseworthy ideas have appeared to significantly

improve the life quality of farmers.

Drip Irrigation

Drip irrigation is a type of micro-irrigation system, originally developed in Israel, that has the

potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly and directly into the

roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below the surface. The goal is to

place water directly into the root zone and minimize evaporation, saving tons of water usage

every day.

Robotics For Agriculture

These robots can automate several agricultural processes. They can make harvesting, soil

maintenance, weeding, planting, and even fruit picking way easier by creating smart

algorithms as well as automatic processes and actions.

Don’t take the risk: Seed precisely!

This might feel like we are already in the future, and somehow, we are. Thanks to images

delivered by satellites and smart sensors inside the soil, farmers can now better understand

what’s going on with their crop variability, weather data according to their location, etc.

This can allow them not only to make better decisions but also to optimize returns on inputs

while preserving resources at ever larger scales.

A MIX OF GREAT INNOVATIVE PROJECTS TO ADD TECHNOLOGY INTO

AGRICULTURE

Israel is leading the way when we discuss technology for agriculture. Maybe it is because

Israelis had to make the desert flourish, or maybe it is because of their well-earned name, the

“Startup Nation”, but for some reason or another, this little Middle Eastern country is

constantly developing new and breathtaking solutions for this field.

CONCLUSION

In a nutshell, this SIWES industrial training done on python has been an excellent and

rewarding experience. I can conclude that there have been a lot I’ve learnt from my work at

Classic Infotech. Needless to say,the basics aspects I have learnt are not sufficient but could

be improved in the nearest future.

As someone with no prior experience with programming whatsoever I believe my time spent

in learning python was well worth it and exposed me to finding more acceptable solutions to

improving agriculture as an agriculture engineer in making. The three main things that I have

learned are the importance of time-management skills, self-motivation and collaborative

learning.
