The project involves creating a basic contact management system.

This project will cover various list


operations such as adding, removing, and searching for contacts, as well as sorting and displaying the
contact list.

Mini Project: Contact Management System

Objectives

- Understand how to use Python lists for data storage.

- Practice basic list operations: add, remove, search, sort, and display.

- Implement a simple menu-driven program.

Project Outline

1. Display Menu: Show options to the user.

2. Add Contact: Add a new contact to the list.

3. Remove Contact: Remove a contact from the list.

4. Search Contact: Search for a contact by name.

5. **Display All Contacts: Show all contacts in the list.

6. **Sort Contacts**: Sort the contact list by name.

Step-by-Step Implementation

Step 1: Display Menu

Create a function to display a menu with options for the user to choose from.

def display_menu():

print("\nContact Management System")

print("1. Add Contact")

print("2. Remove Contact")

print("3. Search Contact")


print("4. Display All Contacts")

print("5. Sort Contacts")

print("6. Exit")

Step 2: Add Contact

Create a function to add a new contact to the list.

def add_contact(contacts):

name = input("Enter contact name: ")

phone = input("Enter contact phone number: ")

contacts.append({"name": name, "phone": phone})

print("Contact added successfully!")

Step 3: Remove Contact

Create a function to remove a contact by name.

def remove_contact(contacts):

name = input("Enter contact name to remove: ")

for contact in contacts:

if contact["name"] == name:

contacts.remove(contact)

print("Contact removed successfully!")

return

print("Contact not found!")

Step 4: Search Contact

Create a function to search for a contact by name.

def search_contact(contacts):
name = input("Enter contact name to search: ")

for contact in contacts:

if contact["name"] == name:

print("Contact found:", contact)

return

print("Contact not found!")

Step 5: Display All Contacts

Create a function to display all contacts in the list.

def display_contacts(contacts):

if not contacts:

print("No contacts to display!")

else:

for contact in contacts:

print("Name:", contact["name"], ", Phone:", contact["phone"])

Step 6: Sort Contacts

Create a function to sort contacts by name.

def sort_contacts(contacts):

contacts.sort(key=lambda x: x["name"])

print("Contacts sorted successfully!")

Step 7: Main Program

Combine all the functions into a menu-driven program.

def main():

contacts = []
while True:

display_menu()

choice = input("Enter your choice: ")

if choice == "1":

add_contact(contacts)

elif choice == "2":

remove_contact(contacts)

elif choice == "3":

search_contact(contacts)

elif choice == "4":

display_contacts(contacts)

elif choice == "5":

sort_contacts(contacts)

elif choice == "6":

print("Exiting program...")

break

else:

print("Invalid choice! Please try again.")

if __name__ == "__main__":

main()

Additional Features (Optional)

To make the project more advanced, you can add the following features:

- Save contacts to a file and load them when the program starts.

- Validate phone numbers.

- Implement editing of existing contacts.

- Add an option to export contacts to a CSV file.


This project provides a practical way to learn about Python lists and basic file handling while building a
useful application.
