Summary
• Strings are versatile and essential in Python programming.
• Use indexing, slicing, and string methods for basic tasks.
• Regex is a powerful tool for advanced text processing.
Your Challenge
• Objective:- Use string manipulation techniques to process text and create something engaging.
• - Ideas to Inspire:- Create a simple chatbot: Write a program that takes user input, processes it, and
responds with pre-written phrases. For example, if the user says "hello," the bot responds with "Hi! How
can I help you today?"
• - Develop a text-based game: Imagine a word guessing game or a basic choose-your-own-adventure
storyline where strings determine the player's path.
• - Build a data processor: Ask the students to simulate a tool that processes a string, such as extracting
specific information like names or transforming text into a specific format (e.g., title case, sentence case).
• - Requirements:- The program must use at least:- Indexing or slicing.
• - A string method (e.g., .replace(), .split(), .join()).
• - Optional for advanced students: Incorporate regex for extra credit.
