WSQ 13 Cars #TC1014

--Originally published at Learning With Python LWP

What To Do

File input/output is our access to permanent stores of data that last beyond the run time of our application.

Write a program that opens and reads the file 93cars.dat.txt and produces the following data:

  • average gas mileage in city (City MPG)
  • average gas mileage on highway (Highway MPG)
  • average midrange price of the vehicles in the set.

You can find the data set at the following link from the Journal of Statistics Education.18337066_1541165832582960_587709461_n

What To Do

Write a function called find_bananas which receives a single parameter called filename (a string) and returns a positive integer which is the number of times the word (string) “banana”  (or “BANANA” ) is found in the file. The banana can be any case (‘BaNana’ or ‘BANANA’ or ‘banana’, etc) and they can be “stuck together” like “banAnaBANANA” (that counts as two). Create your own test file (plain text) to check your work.18338920_1541181232581420_664806977_o

Well this exercise is a little long so i will copy paste the instruction and put my code.

Everything you can find in my github.

For this assignment, these were my instructions:

Your job is to create a program that asks the user for two pieces of data:

  • The lower bound of the sequence
  • The upper bound of the sequence
Then you check the values from the lower bound (inclusive) to the upper bound (inclusive) and make a report of them. During the analysis of each number, if a Lychrel number is found it should be reported immediately with something like “Found a Lychrel number: 196”
The report must show:
  • The range of numbers analysed (lower to upper bound)
  • The number of natural palindromes (no addition to inverse needed)
  • The number of non-Lycherels encountered (become palindromes)
  • The number of Lycherel number candidates (that did not converge to palindrome)
