Real-Time Currency Converter (PCTS)

  Currency Converter C urrency Conversion is a basic real time need in today's life, whether it's exchange of currency while tourism or stock market, import and export duties, determine the selling and buying profits of different products around the world. So it can be referred to as one of the key elements in globalization. Use of a Module: Forex Module Install the module into the computer first by running the following command in the Command Prompt: pip install forex-python Copy the following code: from forex_python.converter import CurrencyRates curr = CurrencyRates() print(""" Country with currency codes and currency names Albania ALL lek Algeria DZD dinar Angola AOA kwanza Argentina ARS peso Armenia AMD dram Australia AUD dollar Austria EUR euro Azerbaijan AZN manat Bahrain BHD dinar Barbados BBD dollar Belarus BYN rouble Belgium EUR euro Bermuda BMD dollar Bolivia BOB boliviano Bosnia and Herzegovina BAM konvertibilna marka Botswana BWP pula Br...

Diving into Modules - Math Module

 >Math Module - Overall explanation Source:  freepik Introduction Other than Python built-in functions, there are numerous functions which can be found in some packages which need to be imported when needed which are called modules .  Such a module in python is the math module. Python's standard library provides a module viz. math for math functions that work with all number types except complex numbers. The Math module in Python is enriched with plenty of functions. Note!: To use the math module one must import it first into the Python compiler one has been working with. The syntax to do so is given below: import math FUNCTIONS IN MATH MODULE ceil(): This function returns the closest just above integer when a value has been passed. Syntax: x = math.ceil(2.4) print(x) floor():  This function returns the closest just below integer when a value has been passed. Syntax: y = math.floor(2.4) print(y) fabs():  This function returns the absolute number in flo...

Diving Into Modules - Random Module

  Source:  Cyndie Meyer Random Module: This is an inbuilt module we get in the Python ecosystem and is used for bringing some variability in the program whenever required. This module is full of a ton of functions that are continuously in use in real life. Note! : To use the functions in this module, you have to import this module at least  once. The syntax for this operation is given below. Syntax: import random Some Functions in Random Module random():   This function returns a float value between 0 and 1. Syntax: x = random.random() print(x) randrange():   This function returns a random number between any given range (exclusive of the last number). Syntax: y = random.ranrange(2,7) print(y) randint():  This function returns a random number between any given range (inclusive of the last number). Syntax: z = random.randint(2,7) print(z) More functions will be continued in a later blog post... ©SGPython

For Loops

 The for loop By  polygraphus  on  shutterstock Def: The for loop is also known as the counting loop and is designed to process the items of any sequence, such as a list or a string, one by one. General form of for loop: The general form of the for loop is given below:      for <variable> in <sequence>:          statements to repeat

Rolling Dice Simulator (PCTS)

Python Codes The Series - 2 Photo by Brett Jordan on Unsplash Playing Ludo or Snakes & Ladders and just lost 😰 your dice 🎲; well, no need to worry till I am with you 🙋🏻‍♂️. Just use Python. Many of you might think 🤔 that I am crazy but believe me I am not crazy 😧. We will learn today to use Python for making a rolling dice simulator program.  Here, we are using random module to use the various random functions to make the probability of each outcomes equal. Copy the following code: #importing random module... import random ''' Taking a number between 1 and 10000 using randrange function ''' start = 1 end = 10000 num = random.randrange(start,end+1) #Now choosing the first digit of num from left... num_2 = str(num)[0] num_2 = int(num_2) ''' Finally, choosing the number for the die ''' if num_2 < 6: roll = random.randrange(1,num_2+1) elif num_2 == 6: roll = num_2 else: num_2 = num_2 - 3 roll = ran...

Character Case Swapping (PCTS)

 Python Codes The Series -1 ©Photo by wiki commons Not only in Python but also in the day-to-day life, the letters in English alphabets are characterized into two cases viz. upper case and lower case. Our first program will be a general fun program for the beginners. In this program, we will learn to swap the cases of the letters of English alphabets being entered by the user with the help of a few lines of Python code. For example: If the user enters: " hoLa AmIGo" , the python program would convert this string into " HOlA aMigO" . The Program is noted below: string=input("Enter a string :") length=len(string) s='' for i in range(length): if string[i].islower(): s=s+string[i].upper() elif string[i].isupper(): s=s+string[i].lower() else: s=s+string[i] print(s) FOR QUICK REFERENCE: The len() function gives the length of the string and the the input() function takes input from the user. Hope you like i...

Python Codes The Series (PCTS) - Introduction

 Python Codes The Series (Intro.) Photo by Chris Ried on Unsplash Welcome, to a new series of Python. Within a few upcoming days, we are going to start a pretty new and most useful series of Python named as ' Python Codes The Series ' or ' PCTS ' . As a Computer Science student, I know very well that at a time it really starts to feels quite boring anyways in just the theory classes, so for the entertainment while studying, I have decided to start this series to take a big leap into the real world functioning and see what lies for us in the way. So grab on your PC and get ready for the cool beginning.😜 Going to start the series soon.... 🙃😀 ©SGPython

Our view towards Python (as a programming language)

  Python - The language of the future Introduction When we hear the term programming language, we usually talk about high-level programming language which are those programming language having a lucid (or easy-to-read) syntax and are later converted to low-level language (binary) , which is understandable by the computer.  Programming language has always been an area of interest over the passing years since the very early days of ' Fortran ' (created by John Backus at  IBM ). To this day, dozens of programming language has been created by different 'Computer Scientists' around the world. What is Python? What is Python? Many of you will describe a large scary snake 🐍, which isn't actually wrong 😅. But here we are talking about a programming language. Similarly, Python is also a high-level and interepreted programming language created by  Guido van Rossum in the late 1980s . It was first released in 1991 as a successor to ABC Programming language . It known fo...
