Title of Micro-Project:- Calorie Counter

1.0 Aims/Benefits of the Micro-Project (minimum30-50words)

The goal of this micro-project is to develop a simple Python-based calorie counter application that allows users to
log their food intake, calculate the total calories consumed, and track their daily caloric intake against a target.

2.0 Course Outcomes Addressed

a) Apply Python programming skills to develop a real-world application for tracking calorie
intake.

b) Demonstrate understanding of basic programming concepts, such as variables, loops,

functions, and data structures (e.g., dictionaries and lists).

c) Implement file handling and data storage techniques to save and retrieve user data in a
program.

d) Design user-friendly interfaces and allow interaction with the program to input, store, and view
data effectively.

e) Analyze and compare real-time data (such as calorie intake vs. goal) and provide feedback
based on calculations.

3.0 Proposed Methodology (Procedure in brief that will be followed to do the micro-
project) in about 100 to 200 words).

The methodology for developing the Calorie Counter in Python will be carried out in the following steps:

1. Initial Planning and Design: First, we will define the requirements and features of the calorie
counter application. These include allowing users to log food items, calculate calories, set daily
goals, and display a summary of their calorie consumption. We will plan a simple text-based
interface for user interaction.
2. User Input and Data Collection: We will create a function that accepts input from the user, such as
the food name and calories. This will be stored in a dictionary, where each food item will be mapped
to its respective calorie value.
3. Calorie Calculation: Once the user logs food items, the program will calculate the total calorie
intake by summing the values in the dictionary.
4. Setting Daily Calorie Goal: The user will be able to set a daily calorie goal. The program will
compare the total calories consumed with the set goal and provide feedback on whether the user has
met or exceeded the goal.
5. Display and Report: The program will generate a summary of the food items logged, total calories
consumed, and feedback about the goal status. We may also implement optional file handling to save
daily logs for future reference.
6. Testing and Finalization: After completing the core functionality, we will test the program for bugs
and usability issues, ensuring it works as expected. Finally, we will document the process and results
in a comprehensive report.
