data structures and sequential programming
● After studying this course, students will be able to gain knowledge of, and ability to use
control framework terminologies.
● After studying this course, students will be able to work out using the core data structures
as lists, dictionaries, tuples, and sets.
● After studying this course, students will be able to choose appropriate programming
paradigms, interrupt and handle data using files to propose solutions through reusable
modules
● After studying this course, students will be able to propose possible error-handling
constructs for unanticipated states/inputs.
● After studying this course, students will be able to implements exemplary applications on
real-world problems.

Practical Exercises (28 hours)

● Running instructions in Interactive interpreter and a Python Script


● Write a program to purposefully raise Indentation Error and Correct it
● Write a program to compute distance between two points taking input from the user.
(Pythagorean Theorem)
● Write a program add.py that takes 2 numbers as command line arguments and prints its
sum.
● Write a Program for checking whether the given number is an even number or not.
● Using a for loop, write a program that prints out the decimal equivalents of 1/2, 1/3, 1/4,
1/10
● Write a program using a for loop that loops over a sequence. What is the sequence?
● Write a program using a while loop that asks the user for a number, and prints a countdown
from that number to zero.
● Find the sum of all the primes below two million. Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence
is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms
will be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, …...
● By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed four
million, find the sum of the even-valued terms.
● Write a program to count the numbers of characters in the string and store them in a
dictionary data structure.

85
● Write a program to use split and join methods in the string and trace a birthday with a
dictionary data structure.
● Write a program combining lists that combines these lists into a dictionary.
● Write a program to count the frequency of characters in a given file. Can you use character
frequency to tell whether the given file is a Python program file, C program file or a text
file?
● Write a program to print each line of a file in reverse order.
● Write a program to compute the number of characters, words and lines in a file.
● Write a function ball collide that takes two balls as parameters and computes if they are
colliding. Your function should return a Boolean representing whether or not the balls are
colliding. Hint: Represent a ball on a plane as a tuple of (x, y, r), r being the radius. If
(distance between two balls centers) <= (sum of their radii) then (they are colliding)
● Find mean, median, mode for the given set of numbers in a list.
● Write a function nearly equal to test whether two strings are nearly equal. Two strings a
and b are nearly equal when a can be generated by a single mutation on b.
● Write a function dups to find all duplicates in the list.
