M INOR A SSIGNMENT-1: O BJECT-O RIENTED P ROGRAMMING (OOP)

1. What is the significance of classes in Python programming, and how do they contribute to object-
oriented programming?

2. Create a custom Python class for managing a bank account with basic functionalities like deposit and
withdrawal?

3. Create a Book class that contains multiple Chapters, where each Chapter has a title and page count.
Write code to initialize a Book object with three chapters and display the total page count of the book.

4. How does Python enforce access control to class attributes, and what is the difference between public,
protected, and private attributes?

5. Write a Python program using a Time class to input a given time in 24-hour format and convert it
to a 12-hour format with AM/PM. The program should also validate time strings to ensure they are
in the correct HH:MM:SS format. Implement a method to check if the time is valid and return an
appropriate message.

6. Write a Python program that uses private attributes for creating a BankAccount class. Implement
methods to deposit, withdraw, and display the balance, ensuring direct access to the balance attribute is
restricted. Explain why using private attributes can help improve data security and prevent accidental
modifications.

7. Write a Python program to simulate a card game using object-oriented principles. The program should
include a Card class to represent individual playing cards, a Deck class to represent a deck of cards,
and a Player class to represent players receiving cards. Implement a shuffle method in the Deck class
to shuffle the cards and a deal method to distribute cards to players. Display each player’s hand after
dealing.

8. Write a Python program that defines a base class Vehicle with attributes make and model, and a
method display info(). Create a subclass Car that inherits from Vehicle and adds an additional at-
tribute num doors. Instantiate both Vehicle and Car objects, call their display info() methods, and
explain how the subclass inherits and extends the functionality of the base class.

9. Write a Python program demonstrating polymorphism by creating a base class Shape with a method
area(), and two subclasses Circle and Rectangle that override the area() method. Instantiate objects
of both subclasses and call the area() method. Explain how polymorphism simplifies working with
different shapes in an inheritance hierarchy.

10. Implement the CommissionEmployee class with init , earnings, and repr methods. Include
properties for personal details and sales data. Create a test script to instantiate the object, display
earnings, modify sales data, and handle data validation errors for negative values.

11. What is duck typing in Python? Write a Python program demonstrating duck typing by creating a
function describe() that accepts any object with a speak() method. Implement two classes, Dog and
Robot, each with a speak() method. Pass instances of both classes to the describe() function and
explain how duck typing allows the function to work without checking the object’s type.

12. WAP to overload the + operator to perform addition of two complex numbers using a custom Complex
class?

13. WAP to create a custom exception class in Python that displays the balance and withdrawal amount
when an error occurs due to insufficient funds?

14. Write a Python program using the Card data class to simulate dealing 5 cards to a player from a
shuffled deck of standard playing cards. The program should print the player’s hand and the number
of remaining cards in the deck after the deal.

15. How do Python data classes provide advantages over named tuples in terms of flexibility and func-
tionality? Give an example using python code.

16. Write a Python program that demonstrates unit testing directly within a function’s docstring using the
doctest module. Create a function add(a, b) that returns the sum of two numbers and includes multiple
test cases in its docstring. Implement a way to automatically run the tests when the script is executed.

17. Scope Resolution: object’s namespace → class namespace → global namespace → built-in names-
pace.
s p e c i e s = Global Species

c l a s s Animal :
species = Class Species

def init ( self , species ):

self . species = species

def display species ( s e l f ):

p r i n t (” I n s t a n c e s p e c i e s :” , s e l f . s p e c i e s )
p r i n t (” Class s p e c i e s : ” , Animal . s p e c i e s )
p r i n t (” Global s p e c i e s :” , g l o b a l s ( ) [ ’ s p e c i e s ’ ] )

a = Animal (” I n s t a n c e S p e c i e s ”)
a. display species ()

What will be the output when the above program is executed? Explain the scope resolution process
step by step.

18. Write a Python program using a lambda function to convert temperatures from Celsius to Kelvin,
store the data in a tabular format using pandas, and visualize the data using a plot.
