1 Lab Test:
1. Python program (60% logic + 20%
documentation + 20% code quality) 7
2. Small Python program that sends a SQL query to
a database and displays the result. A stub 5
program can be provided.
2 Report file: Minimum 20 Python programs. Out of this 7
at least 4 programs should send SQL commands to a
database and retrieve the result
3 Project (that uses the concepts that have been learnt
8
in Class 11 and 12)
4 Viva voce 3
7
Write a random number generator that generates random numbers between 1
and 6 (simulates a dice).
Write a Python program to implement a stack and queue using a list data-
structure.
Take a sample of ten phishing e-mails (or any text file) and find most commonly
occurring word(s)
Database Management
• Create a student table and insert data. Implement the following SQL commands
on the student table:
ALTER table to add new attributes / modify data type / drop attribute
UPDATE table to modify data
ORDER By to display data in ascending / descending order DELETE to
remove tuple(s)
GROUP BY and find the min, max, sum, count and average
• Similar exercise may be framed for other cases.
• Integrate SQL with Python by importing the MySQL module.
6. Project
The aim of the class project is to create something that is tangible and useful using
Python / Python and SQL connectivity. This should be done in groups of two to three
students and should be started by students at least 6 months before the submission
deadline. The aim here is to find a real world problem that is worthwhile to solve.
Students are encouraged to visit local businesses and ask them about the problems that
they are facing. For example, if a business is finding it hard to create invoices for filing
GST claims, then students can do a project that takes the raw data (list of transactions),
groups the transactions by category, accounts for the GST tax rates, and creates
invoices in the appropriate format. Students can be extremely creative here. They can
use a wide variety of Python libraries to create user friendly applications such as
games, software for their school, software for their disabled fellow students, and mobile
applications, Of course to do some of these projects, some additional learning is
required; this should be encouraged. Students should know how to teach themselves.
The students should be sensitized to avoid plagiarism and violations of copyright issues
while working on projects. Teachers should take necessary measures for this.
