One-Day Assignment for Junior Developer – Python Assignment

Project Title: Task Manager CLI Application

Objective: Build a command-line interface (CLI) application to manage tasks. The application
should allow users to add, view, and delete tasks, as well as save and load tasks from a file.

Tasks Breakdown

1. Project Setup

o Create a new directory for the project, e.g., task_manager.

o Inside the directory, create a Python file named task_manager.py.

2. Define Task Structure

o Create a simple Task class to represent a task. Each task should have the
following attributes:

▪ id: an integer for the task ID.

▪ title: a string for the task title.

▪ completed: a boolean indicating if the task is completed.


3. Implement Task Management Functions

o Implement functions to handle the following functionalities:

▪ Add a Task: Allow the user to add a new task to the task list.

▪ View Tasks: Display all tasks, showing their status (completed or not).

▪ Delete a Task: Allow the user to remove a task by its ID.

▪ Mark Task as Complete: Update the task status to completed.

4. File Handling

o Implement functions to save and load tasks to/from a file using JSON:

▪ Save Tasks: Save the list of tasks to a file named tasks.json.

▪ Load Tasks: Load tasks from tasks.json when the application starts.

5. Create a Command-Line Interface

o Use a simple loop to create a CLI that allows the user to interact with the
application:

▪ Display a menu with options to add, view, delete, complete tasks, and
exit the application.

▪ Use input to get user commands and execute the corresponding


functions.

6. Documentation

o Create a README.md file that includes:


▪ Project title and description.

▪ Instructions on how to run the application (e.g., python


task_manager.py).

▪ Overview of functionalities implemented.

Expected Deliverables

• A complete CLI task manager application (task_manager.py).

• Source code with clear and concise comments.

• A README.md file with project details.

Assessment Criteria

• Functionality: The application works as intended with all specified features.

• Code Quality: Code is clean, well-structured, and appropriately commented.

• User Experience: The CLI is user-friendly, and instructions are clear.
