Alphabet List:

alphabet = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

alphabetList = []

for i in alphabet:
    alphabetList.append(i)

print(alphabetList)
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w', 'x', 'y', 'z']

Alphabet Numbering: While Loop

letter = input("What letter would you like to check?")

i = 0 

while i < 26:
    if alphabetList[i] == letter:
        print("The letter " + letter + " is the " + str(i + 1) + " letter in the alphabet") #adds 1 to the number that is counted by the program to make the number outputted true
    i += 1
The letter a is the 1 letter in the alphabet

Alphabet Numbering System: Count

letter = input("What letter would you like to check?")

for i in alphabetList:
    count = 1 # counting is started at 1 instead of 0
    if i == letter:
        print("The letter " + letter + " is the " + str(count) + " letter in the alphabet")
    count += 1
The letter a is the 1 letter in the alphabet

Number List: While Loop

evens = []
i = 0

while i <= 10:
    evens.append(i)
    i += 2

print(evens)    
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

Outputting odd numbers:

odds = []
i = 0

while i <= 10:
    odds.append(i + 1) # starts at 1 instead of 0 to give odd numbers
    i += 2

print(odds)
[1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11]

Number List: For Loop

numbers = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
evens = []

for i in numbers:
    if (numbers[i] % 2 == 0): 
        evens.append(numbers[i])

print(evens)
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

Outputting odd numbers:

numbers = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
odds = []

for i in numbers:
    if (numbers[i] % 2 == 1): # start at 1 instead of 0 in order to get odd numbers
        odds.append(numbers[i])

print(odds)
[1, 3, 5, 7, 9]

Printing Numbers That Are Multiples of 2 or 5:

numbers = []
newNumbers = []
i = 0

while i < 100:
    numbers.append(i)
    i += 1

for i in numbers:
    if numbers[i] == 0: # skips the number 0, so that the list is from 1 to 100
        pass
    elif numbers[i] % 5 == 0:
        newNumbers.append(numbers[i])
    elif numbers[i] % 2 == 0: # elif makes the code not repeat numbers
        newNumbers.append(numbers[i])

print(newNumbers) 
[2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 35, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 45, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, 55, 56, 58, 60, 62, 64, 65, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74, 75, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84, 85, 86, 88, 90, 92, 94, 95, 96, 98]

Challenge

This code segment is at a very early stage of implementation.

  • What are some ways to (user) error proof this code?
  • The code should be able to calculate the cost of the meal of the user

Hint:

  • write a “single” test describing an expectation of the program of the program
  • test - input burger, expect output of burger price
  • run the test, which should fail because the program lacks that feature
  • write “just enough” code, the simplest possible, to make the test pass

Then repeat this process until you get program working like you want it to work.

menu =  {"burger": 3.99,
         "fries": 1.99,
         "drink": 0.99,
         "salad": 4.99,
         "toast": 2.99}
total = 0

#shows the user the menu and prompts them to select an item
print("Menu")
for k,v in menu.items():
    print(k + "  $" + str(v)) #why does v have "str" in front of it?

#ideally the code should prompt the user multiple times
while total < 3:
    item = input("Please select 3 items from the menu")
    print("Item ordered:", item.lower())
    for k,v in menu.items():
        if item.lower() == k:
            print("Your total order is $", menu[item.lower()])
            total = (total + 1)
            break

    if item.lower() != k:
        print("Try choosing your item again.")
        continue

#code should add the price of the menu items selected by the user 
Menu
burger  $3.99
fries  $1.99
drink  $0.99
salad  $4.99
toast  $2.99
Item ordered: burger
Your total order is $ 3.99
Item ordered: water
Try choosing your item again.
Item ordered: salad
Your total order is $ 4.99
Item ordered: toast
Your total order is $ 2.99

Hacks

Now is a good time to think about Testing of your teams final project...

  • What errors may arise in your project?
  • What are some test cases that can be used?
  • Make sure to document any bugs you encounter and how you solved the problem.
  • What are “single” tests that you will perform on your project? Or, your part of the project?
    • As Hack Design and Test plan action … Divide these “single” tests into Issues for Scrum Board prior to coding. FYI, related tests could be in same Issue by using markdown checkboxes to separate tests.
