Lab 5 V 1

This document outlines 4 programming exercises: 1. A nested list is used to store scores from a diving competition with 6 divers. Functions are defined to display results and the top 3 positions. 2. A nested list represents scores from badminton games between two players. Functions display the game scores and allow input of additional scores. 3. A currency conversion program uses a dictionary to store rates. Functions add, adjust, remove and display rates. 4. A dictionary tracks student names and marks, with lists for coursework and exam scores. A menu allows adding, updating, removing and displaying student marks.

Lab 5 (Nested List and Dictionary)

1. (Nested list) In a diving competition, every diver makes 3 dive attempts. Each dive
attempt is awarded a score which is a value between 0 and 10, inclusive of 0 and
10. The diver with the best total wins.

You are given the scores for 6 divers:


scores=[[7.9,7.8,8.2],[8.0,8.5,8.4],[9.0,9.1,9.5],
[9.0,9.2,9.2],[8.5,8.8,9.0],[9.7,9.3,9.2]]

a. Display the results in the following format:


Diver A1 A2 A3 Total
1 7.9 7.8 8.2 23.9
2 8.0 8.5 8.4 24.9
3 9.0 9.1 9.5 27.6
4 9.0 9.2 9.2 27.4
5 8.5 8.8 9.0 26.3
6 9.7 9.3 9.2 28.2

You may assume that every diver will make 3 attempts (fixed). However, the
number of divers can vary.

b. Display the top 3 positions in descending order of the total score as follows:
Top three positions
Diver Total
6 28.2
3 27.6
4 27.4

Assume there are no ties.


2. (Nested list) A nested list is used to represent the scores of 2 players A and B in a
badminton game as follows:
gameScore=[['A','B'],[21,11],[19,21],[20,22]]

The above represents 3 games played between player A and B. Based on the game
score, the score of the first game score is 21-11 in which Player A is the winner, etc.
The overall game score is 1-2 and player B is the winner.

It is possible that only 2 games are played with the game score, as shown in the
following example:
gameScore=[['A','B'],[21,1],[21,10]]

In this example, the overall game score is 2-0 and player A is the winner.

a. Write a function displayGameScore(gameScore) that has a list in the above


format as parameter and displays a summary game score. The result should be
displayed in the following format:

Player A vs B
Game 1 21-11
SINGAPORE UNIVERSITY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES (SUSS) ICT133 Lab – Page 1 of 4
Game 2 19-21
Game 3 11-21
Overall 1-2
Winner is player B

Test the function using any of the above lists.

b. Write a function getPlayerNames() that prompts for the names of 2 players


and returns a game score list. The score list returned should be in the following
structure:
[ [ ‘player 1 name’, ‘player 2 name’] ]

Since there are no game scores yet, the list consists of only the player names.

c. Write a function inputGameScores(scoreList) that has the score list as


parameter and prompts for a game score. For example,
Game 1 score A vs B: 21-10
Game 2 score A vs B: 21-11
Game 3 score A vs B: <enter> key to represent end of input
(Assuming the players names are A and B)

The scores are entered with a dash in between. Add each game score in score
list. Test out the function.

d. Write a main function to test out all 3 functions.

3. (Dictionary) This program makes use of a dictionary structure to track currency


rates. The rates are all with respect to 1 SGD. Write the program in parts as follows:
a. Create an initial currency dictionary called currs as follows:
currs = {'USD': 0.73, 'RMB':5.01, 'HKD':5.73 }

b. Create a menu as follows:


Menu
1. Add Currency
2. Adjust Currency
3. Remove Currency
4. Display Currency rates
0. Quit
Enter option:
For each option, call one of the functions described below.

c. Function addCurrency(currs). Pass the currs dictionary to the function.


The function should prompt user to input a currency and rate, e.g.
Enter currency: MYR
Enter rate: 2.90

The currency and rate are added to the currs dictionary as a key value pair. If
the currency already exists in the dictionary, print ‘Currency already exists!’,
otherwise, proceed to include the currency in the dictionary.

d. Function adjustCurrency(currs).
The function should prompt user to input a currency, e.g.
SINGAPORE UNIVERSITY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES (SUSS) ICT133 Lab – Page 2 of 4
Enter currency: HKD
Rate is 5.73
Enter new rate: 5.77
HKD adjusted to 5.77

The program checks that the currency exists before prompting for new rate. A
message ‘Currency not found!’ should be displayed if the currency is not found.

e. Function removeCurrency(currs). The function prompts for currency and if


found, remove the currency from the dictionary.

f. Function displayCurrencyRates(currs). The function displays the currencies in


the following format:
Currency Rate
USD 0.73
RMB 5.01
HKD 5.73

4. (Dictionary, list) Write a program to manage a collection of student names and their
course marks. Course mark consists of 2 components – course work, and exam. Both
are of equal weightage. Implement the program as described:

a. Assume that student names have been read from a file. Use the following initial
dictionary structure:
marks = { 'John':[0,0], 'Jane':[0,0], 'Peter':[0,0], 'Joe':[0,0] }

Note that for each dictionary entry, name is the key and a list representing the
coursework and exam marks is the value.

b. Allow user to repeatedly select an option from this menu:


Menu
1. Add marks
2. Update marks
3. Remove student
4. Display marks
0. Exit

c. Add marks option.


Prompt user for a name, coursework and exam. If the name already exists, display
a message, otherwise add an entry to the dictionary with the name as key and
coursework and test score as values. An example run of the option is as follows:
Enter name: John
Coursework: 60
Exam: 0
Added!

d. Update marks option


Similar to add, prompt user for a name, coursework and exam. However, the
name must already exist before user is prompted for coursework and exam. An
example run of the option is as follows:
Enter name: John
(John found. Marks displayed)
Coursework: 60
SINGAPORE UNIVERSITY OF SOCIAL SCIENCES (SUSS) ICT133 Lab – Page 3 of 4
Exam: 70
Update C or E: C
Enter Coursework: 65
Updated!

e. Remove student option


Prompt for a name and remove the entry if the name is in the dictionary.

f. Display mark option


List all the names and scores of students in the following format:

Name Cw Ex Overall Grade


John 60 70 65.0 P
Jane 50 40 45.0 F
