b. Senior Citizen Check

Develop a program to read the name and year of birth of a person. Display whether the
person is a senior citizen or not.

Python Code

from datetime import date

perName = input("Enter the name of the person : ")

perDOB = int(input("Enter his year of birth : "))

curYear = date.today().year
perAge = curYear - perDOB

if (perAge > 60):

print(perName, "aged", perAge, "years is a Senior Citizen.")
else:
print(perName, "aged", perAge, "years is not a Senior Citizen.")

secondTerm = 1
print("The Fibonacci series with", num, "terms is :")
print(firstTerm, secondTerm, end=" ")
for i in range(2,num):
curTerm = firstTerm + secondTerm
print(curTerm, end=" ")
firstTerm = secondTerm
secondTerm = curTerm
Output

Enter the Fibonacci sequence length to be generated : 8

The Fibonacci series with 8 terms is :
0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13

Enter the Fibonacci sequence length to be generated : 5

n = int(input("Enter the value of N : "))

r = int(input("Enter the value of R (R cannot be negative or greater than
N): "))
nCr = fact(n)/(fact(r)*fact(n-r))

print(n,'C',r," = ","%d"%nCr,sep="")

Output

Enter the value of N : 7

Enter the value of R (R cannot be negative or greater than N): 5
7C5 = 21

Enter the value of N : 5

Enter the value of R (R cannot be negative or greater than N): 5
5C5 = 1

Enter the value of N : 3

Enter the value of R (R cannot be negative or greater than N): 1

Enter the value of N : 8

Enter the value of R (R cannot be negative or greater than N): 0
8C0 = 1
Question 3
Mean, Variance and Standard Deviation

Read N numbers from the console and create a list. Develop a program to print mean,
variance and standard deviation with suitable messages.

Python Code

from math import sqrt

myList = []

num = int(input("Enter the number of elements in your list : "))

for i in range(num):
val = int(input("Enter the element : "))
myList.append(val)

print('The length of list1 is', len(myList))

print('List Contents', myList)

total = 0
for elem in myList:
total += elem

mean = total / num

total = 0
for elem in myList:
total += (elem - mean) * (elem - mean)

variance = total / num

stdDev = sqrt(variance)

print("Mean =", mean)

print("Variance =", variance)
print("Standard Deviation =", "%.2f"%stdDev)

Output

Enter the number of elements in your list : 5

Enter the element : 45
Enter the element : 34
Enter the element : 86
Enter the element : 92
Enter the element : 35

The length of list1 is 5

List Contents [45, 34, 86, 92, 35]

Mean = 58.4
Variance = 642.64
Standard Deviation = 25.35
Question 4

Read a multi-digit number (as chars) from the console. Develop a program to print the
frequency of each digit with suitable message.

Python Code

num = input("Enter a number : ")

print("The number entered is :", num)

uniqDig = set(num)
#print(uniqDig)

for elem in uniqDig:

print(elem, "occurs", num.count(elem), "times")

Output

Enter a number : 234939

The number entered is : 234939
4 occurs 1 times

7 occurs 1 times
4 occurs 1 times
3 occurs 3 times
8 occurs 2 times
Question 5
Word Frequency in a File

Develop a program to print 10 most frequently appearing words in a text file. [Hint: Use
dictionary with distinct words and their frequency of occurrences. Sort the dictionary in
the reverse order of frequency and display dictionary slice of first 10 items]

Python Code

import sys
import string
import os.path

fname = input("Enter the filename : ") #sample file text.txt also

provided

if not os.path.isfile(fname):
print("File", fname, "doesn't exists")
sys.exit(0)

infile = open(fname, "r")

filecontents = ""

for line in infile:

for ch in line:
if ch not in string.punctuation:
filecontents = filecontents + ch
else:
filecontents = filecontents + ' ' #replace punctuations and
newline with a space

wordFreq = {}

wordList = filecontents.split()

#Calculate word Frequency

for word in wordList:

if word not in wordFreq.keys():
wordFreq[word] = 1
else:
wordFreq[word] += 1

sortedWordFreq = sorted(wordFreq.items(), key=lambda x:x[1], reverse=True )

print("\n===================================================")
print("10 most frequently appearing words with their count")
print("===================================================")
for i in range(10):
print(sortedWordFreq[i][0], "occurs", sortedWordFreq[i][1], "times")
Output

===================================================
10 most frequently appearing words with their count
===================================================
the occurs 45 times
of occurs 24 times
party occurs 12 times
part occurs 12 times
a occurs 9 times
and occurs 8 times
second occurs 7 times
to occurs 6 times
shall occurs 6 times
first occurs 5 times

Question 6
Sort File Contents

Develop a program to sort the contents of a text file and write the sorted contents into a
separate text file. [Hint: Use string methods strip(), len(), list methods sort(), append(),
and file methods open(), readlines(), and write()].

Python Code

import os.path
import sys

fname = input("Enter the filename whose contents are to be sorted : ")

#sample file unsorted.txt also provided

if not os.path.isfile(fname):
print("File", fname, "doesn't exists")
sys.exit(0)

infile = open(fname, "r")

myList = infile.readlines()
# print(myList)

#Remove trailing \n characters

lineList = []
for line in myList:
lineList.append(line.strip())

lineList.sort()

#Write sorted contents to new file sorted.txt

outfile = open("sorted.txt","w")

for line in lineList:

outfile.write(line + "\n")

infile.close() # Close the input file

outfile.close() # Close the output file

if os.path.isfile("sorted.txt"):
print("\nFile containing sorted content sorted.txt created
successfully")
print("sorted.txt contains", len(lineList), "lines")
print("Contents of sorted.txt")

print("=================================================================")
rdFile = open("sorted.txt","r")
for line in rdFile:
print(line, end="")

Output

Enter the filename whose contents are to be sorted : unsorted.txt

File containing sorted content sorted.txt created successfully

sorted.txt contains 15 lines
Contents of sorted.txt

directory) into a ZIP File by using relevant modules and suitable methods.

Python Code

import os
import sys
import pathlib
import zipfile

dirName = input("Enter Directory name that you want to backup : ")

if not os.path.isdir(dirName):
 print("Directory", dirName, "doesn't exists")
sys.exit(0)

curDirectory = pathlib.Path(dirName)

with zipfile.ZipFile("myZip.zip", mode="w") as archive:

for file_path in curDirectory.rglob("*"):
archive.write(file_path,
arcname=file_path.relative_to(curDirectory))

if os.path.isfile("myZip.zip"):
print("Archive", "myZip.zip", "created successfully")
else:
print("Error in creating zip archive")

Output

Enter Directory name that you want to backup : zipDemo

Archive myZip.zip created successfully

Question 8
Assertions and Exceptions Demo

Write a function named DivExp which takes TWO parameters a, b and returns a value
c (c=a/b). Write suitable assertion for a>0 in function DivExp and raise an exception for
when b=0. Develop a suitable program which reads two values from the console and
calls a function DivExp.

Python Code

import sys

def DivExp(a,b):
assert a>0, "a should be greater than 0"
try:
c = a/b
except ZeroDivisionError:
print("Value of b cannot be zero")
sys.exit(0)
else:
return c

val1 = int(input("Enter a value for a : "))

val2 = int(input("Enter a value for b : "))

val3 = DivExp(val1, val2)

print(val1, "/", val2, "=", val3)

Output

Enter a value for a : 7

Enter a value for b : 6
7 / 6 = 1.1666666666666667
Enter a value for a : 0
Enter a value for b : 5
AssertionError: a should be greater than 0

Enter a value for a : -3

Enter a value for b : 6
AssertionError: a should be greater than 0

Enter a value for a : 6

Enter a value for b : 0
Value of b cannot be zero

Question 9
Complex Class Demo

Define a function which takes TWO objects representing complex numbers and returns
new complex number with a addition of two complex numbers. Define a suitable class
‘Complex’ to represent the complex number. Develop a program to read N (N >=2)
complex numbers and to compute the addition of N complex numbers.

Python Code

class Complex:
def init (self, realp = 0, imagp=0):
self.realp = realp
self.imagp = imagp

def setComplex(self, realp, imagp):

self.realp = realp
self.imagp = imagp

def readComplex(self):
self.realp = int(input("Enter the real part : "))
self.imagp = int(input("Enter the real part : "))

def showComplex(self):
print('(',self.realp,')','+i','(',self.imagp,')',sep="")

def addComplex(self, c2):

c3 = Complex()
c3.realp = self.realp + c2.realp
c3.imagp = self.imagp + c2.imagp
return c3

def add2Complex(a,b):
c = a.addComplex(b)
return c

def main():
c1 = Complex(3,5)
c2 = Complex(6,4)
 print("Complex Number 1")
c1.showComplex()
print("Complex Number 2")
c2.showComplex()

c3 = add2Complex(c1, c2)

print("Sum of two Complex Numbers")

c3.showComplex()

#Addition of N (N >=2) complex numbers

compList = []

num = int(input("\nEnter the value for N : "))

for i in range(num):
print("Object", i+1)
obj = Complex()
obj.readComplex()
compList.append(obj)

print("\nEntered Complex numbers are : ")

for obj in compList:
obj.showComplex()

sumObj = Complex()

Question 10
Student Class Demo

Develop a program that uses class Student which prompts the user to enter marks in
three subjects and calculates total marks, percentage and displays the score card details.
[Hint: Use list to store the marks in three subjects and total marks. Use init() method to
initialize name, USN and the lists to store marks and total, Use getMarks() method to
read marks into the list, and display() method to display the score card details.]

Python Code

class Student:
def init (self, name = "", usn = "", score = [0,0,0,0]):
self.name = name
self.usn = usn
self.score = score

def getMarks(self):
self.name = input("Enter student Name : ")
self.usn = input("Enter student USN : ")
self.score[0] = int(input("Enter marks in Subject 1 : "))
self.score[1] = int(input("Enter marks in Subject 2 : "))
self.score[2] = int(input("Enter marks in Subject 3 : "))
self.score[3] = self.score[0] + self.score[1] + self.score[2]

def display(self):
percentage = self.score[3]/3
spcstr = "=" * 81
print(spcstr)
print("SCORE CARD DETAILS".center(81))
print(spcstr)
print("%15s"%("NAME"), "%12s"%("USN"),
"%8s"%"MARKS1","%8s"%"MARKS2","%8s"%"MARKS3","%8s"%"TOTAL","%12s"%("PERCENT
AGE"))
print(spcstr)
print("%15s"%self.name, "%12s"%self.usn,
"%8d"%self.score[0],"%8d"%self.score[1],"%8d"%self.score[2],"%8d"%self.scor
e[3],"%12.2f"%percentage)
print(spcstr)

def main():
s1 = Student()
 s1.getMarks()
s1.display()

main()

Output

Enter student Name : Shivappa
