3.0 PROPOSEDMETHODOLOGY

the "Periodic Quiz" project involves a structured approach to development. First, requirement analysis
will be conducted to identify key features such as quiz types, scoring, and UI design. The system
design phase will focus on planning the quiz logic,and data structure. Implementation will involve
coding the quiz using Python, with a GUI (Tkinter/PyQt) or a simple CLI-based interface. Testing and
debugging will ensure smooth functionality and accuracy. Finally, the project will be deployed .

Python is powerful programming language. It has efficient high-level data structures and a simple but
effective approach to object-oriented programming. Python code is simple, short, readable, intuitive,
and powerful, and thus it is effective for introducing computing and problem solving to beginners. It's
elegant syntax and dynamic typing, together with its interpreted nature, make it an ideal language for
scripting and rapid application development in many areas on most platforms.

4.0 LITERATURE REVIEW:

The Periodic Quiz project builds upon existing research and applications in the fields of educational
technology, gamified learning, and Python-based quiz systems. Various studies emphasize that
interactive quizzes enhance student engagement and retention of knowledge, particularly in subjects
like chemistry.

Python is widely used for developing quiz-based applications due to its simplicity and extensive
libraries. Tkinter and PyQt are commonly employed for building graphical user interfaces, while
SQLite or JSON can be used for data storage. Several existing Python quiz applications focus on
general knowledge, but limited resources are dedicated to periodic table-based learning tools.

Gamification elements, such as scoring, hints, and leaderboards, have been shown to improve learning
outcomes. Research also suggests that quizzes with real-time feedback help learners identify gaps in
their understanding. By integrating these concepts, the Periodic Quiz project aims to provide an
engaging and educational tool for learning the periodic table efficiently.

Previous studies have emphasized the benefits of real-time feedback in quiz-based learning, allowing
users to immediately assess their mistakes and improve their understanding. Adaptive quizzes, which
adjust difficulty based on user performance, have also been shown to increase engagement and
retention. Additionally, the integration of multiple-choice questions, fill-in-the-blank challenges, and
visual representations of elements has been recognized as a way to enhance cognitive learning.

By incorporating these findings, the Periodic Quiz project aims to provide a user-friendly, offline, and
interactive learning tool for students and enthusiasts to test and improve their knowledge of the periodic
table. The application will integrate gamification elements, real-time feedback, and a structured
learning approach to make chemistry more engaging and accessible.

5.0 ACTUAL METHODOLOGY FOLLOWED

1. Data Module (data.py)

Purpose:

The data module is responsible for storing the periodic table elements and their names. Since data
storage and retrieval are separate concerns from the game logic and UI, moving them to an independent
module makes the code cleaner and easier to maintain.

# data.py
ELEMENTS = {
"H": "Hydrogen", "He": "Helium", "Li": "Lithium", "Be": "Beryllium",
"B": "Boron", "C": "Carbon", "N": "Nitrogen", "O": "Oxygen",
"F": "Fluorine", "Ne": "Neon", "Na": "Sodium", "Mg": "Magnesium",
}

Advantages of this module:

 Easy Expansion: If we want to add more elements, we can do it in data.py without modifying any
other part of the code.
 Code Separation: The game logic and UI do not need to handle the element storage, making them
cleaner and more focused.

2. GUI Module (gui.py)

Purpose:

The GUI module is responsible for creating buttons, labels, and other UI components used in the game.
By moving UI-related functions to this module, we improve code reusability and make the main script
less cluttered.

6
 # gui.py
import tkinter as tk

def create_label(root, text, font_size, fg="white", bg="#1e1e2e"):

"""Creates and returns a Tkinter Label widget."""
label = tk.Label(root, text=text, font=("Arial", font_size), fg=fg, bg=bg)
return label

def create_button(root, text, command, font_size=14):

"""Creates and returns a Tkinter Button widget."""
button = tk.Button(root, text=text, font=("Arial", font_size), command=command)
return button

Advantages of this module:

 Reusable UI Components: Instead of defining UI elements multiple times in different locations, we

can use these functions to create buttons and labels easily.

 Easy Modification: If we want to change UI design (e.g., colors, fonts), we can do it

in gui.py without affecting the game logic.

3.Game Logic Module (game.py)

Purpose:
The game logic module is responsible for handling the quiz mechanics, including:
 Selecting a random element symbol.

 Checking user answers.

 Updating scores and lives.

 Providing hints.

 Ending the game when lives reach zero.

7
# game.py
import random
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox
from data import ELEMENTS

class PeriodicTableGame:
def __init__(self, root):
self.root = root
self.root.title("Periodic Table Quiz")
self.root.geometry("600x400")
self.root.configure(bg="#1e1e2e")

self.score = 0
self.lives = 3
self.current_element = None
self.label = tk.Label(root, text="Guess the Element Name!", font=("Arial", 16), fg="white", bg="#1e1e2e")
self.label.pack(pady=20)
self.element_label = tk.Label(root, text="", font=("Arial", 24, "bold"), fg="cyan", bg="#1e1e2e")
self.element_label.pack()
self.entry = tk.Entry(root, font=("Arial", 14))
self.entry.pack(pady=10)
self.submit_btn = tk.Button(root, text="Submit", font=("Arial", 14), command=self.check_answer)
self.submit_btn.pack(pady=5)
self.hint_btn = tk.Button(root, text="Hint", font=("Arial", 14), command=self.show_hint)
self.hint_btn.pack(pady=5)
self.score_label = tk.Label(root, text=f"Score: {self.score} | Lives: {self.lives}", font=("Arial", 14),
fg="white", bg="#1e1e2e")
self.score_label.pack(pady=10)
self.next_question()
def next_question(self):
"""Selects a new random element and updates the UI."""
if self.lives <= 0:
messagebox.showinfo("Game Over", f"Final Score: {self.score}")
self.root.quit()
self.current_element = random.choice(list(ELEMENTS.keys()))
self.element_label.config(text=self.current_element)
self.entry.delete(0, tk.END)
def check_answer(self):
"""Checks user input and updates score or lives."""
answer = self.entry.get().strip().capitalize()
if answer == ELEMENTS[self.current_element]:
self.score += 10
messagebox.showinfo("Correct!", "Well done!")
else:
self.lives -= 1
messagebox.showerror("Wrong!", f"The correct answer was {ELEMENTS[self.current_element]}")
self.score_label.config(text=f"Score: {self.score} | Lives: {self.lives}")
self.next_question()
def show_hint(self):
"""Provides a hint by showing the first two letters of the element."""
hint = ELEMENTS[self.current_element][:2] + "..."
messagebox.showinfo("Hint", f"Starts with: {hint}")
8
Advantages of this module:
 Better Organization: The game logic is completely independent of the UI and data storage.
 Easier Debugging: Since game mechanics are isolated, debugging and testing become simpler.

 Scalability: New features, such as difficulty levels, timers, or more element properties, can be added

easily.

4. Main Application (main.py)

Purpose:

The main module is responsible for starting the game by initializing the Tkinter window and creating
an instance of PeriodicTableGame.

# main.py
import tkinter as tk
from game import PeriodicTableGame

if __name__ == "__main__":
root = tk.Tk()
game = PeriodicTableGame(root)
root.mainloop()

Advantages of this module:

 Clear Entry Point: main.py serves as the only entry point to start the game.

 Encapsulation: Keeps the main script clean and focused only on launching application.

 Modular Testing: The game can be tested independently brunning game.py separately.
