I decided to see what the world outside of ALX SE environment looks like, I got the opportunity to intern as a Python
developer and with CodSoft and here
(in this repository) are the projects that I had to build within 4 weeks to get certified.
You are free to contribute to the project after January, 2024, just ensure you read through CONTRIBUTION.md to know how to contribute, after reading about the particular project of interest.
There were 5 projects in all and I was supposed to get at least 3 of them done within the 4 weeks of internship; as an ALX brought up, I chose to do them all. I thought it was a great opportunity to stand out, if indeed being an ALX SE student makes one stand out in the tech space.
The projects were as follows:
Task 1: To-Do List
A To-Do List application is a useful project that helps users manage and organize their tasks efficiently. This project aims to create a command-line or GUI-based application using Python, allowing users to create, update, and track their to-do lists
Task 2: Calculator
Design a simple calculator with basic arithmetic operations. Prompt the user to input two numbers and an operation choice. Perform the calculation and display the result.
Task 3: Password Generator
A password generator is a useful tool that generates strong and random passwords for users. This project aims to create a password generator application using Python, allowing users to specify the length and complexity of the password.
User Input: Prompt the user to specify the desired length of the password.
Generate Password: Use a combination of random characters to generate a password of the specified length.
Display the Password: Print the generated password on the screen.
Task 4: Rock-Paper-Scissors Game
User Input: Prompt the user to choose rock, paper, or scissors.
Computer Selection: Generate a random choice (rock, paper, or scissors) for the computer.
Game Logic: Determine the winner based on the user's choice and the computer's choice.
Rock beats scissors, scissors beat paper, and paper beats rock
Display Result: Show the user's choice and the computer's choice.
Display the result, whether the user wins, loses, or it's a tie
Score Tracking (Optional): Keep track of the user's and computer's scores for multiple rounds.
Play Again: Ask the user if they want to play another round.
User Interface: Design a user-friendly interface with clear instructions and feedback.
Task 5: Contact Book
Contact Information: Store name, phone number, email, and address for each contact.
Add Contact: Allow users to add new contacts with their details.
View Contact List: Display a list of all saved contacts with names and phone numbers.
Search Contact: Implement a search function to find contacts by name or phone number.
Update Contact: Enable users to update contact details.
Delete Contact: Provide an option to delete a contact.
User Interface: Design a user-friendly interface for easy interaction.
Extra Project (A Calulator with a GUI)
This was built and submitted to CodeClause during a Python
development internship with her as well, but I chose to add it here. It was built with
Python Tkinter
; it's a desktop application, a calculator that has a Graphical User Interface. More info about the app is on the README file. You may want to as well visit the original repository
