In this exercise you will write a program that simulates a game of Bingo for a single card. Begin by generating a list of all of the valid Bingo calls (B1 through O75). Once the list has been created you can randomize the order of its elements by calling the shuffle function in the random

Unix-based operating systems usually include a tool named head. It displays the first 10 lines of a file whose name is provided as a command line argument. Write a Python program that provides the same behaviour. Display an appropriate error message if the file requested by the user does not exist, or if the command

Unix-based operating systems also typically include a tool named tail. It displays the last 10 lines of a file whose name is provided as a command line argument. Write a Python program that provides the same behaviour. Display an appropriate error message if the file requested by the user does not exist, or if the

The novel “Gadsby” is over 50,000 words in length. While 50,000 words is not normally remarkable for a novel, it is in this case because none of the words in the book use the letter E. This is particularly noteworthy when one considers that E is the most common letter in English. Write a program

Students learning to spell in English are often taught the rhyme “I before E except after C”. This rule of thumb advises that when an I and an E are adjacent in a word, the I will precede the E, unless they are immediately preceded by a C. When preceded by a C the E

Write a program that reads a file containing information about chemical elements and stores it in one or more appropriate data structures. Then your program should read and process input from the user. If the user enters an integer then your program should display the symbol and name of the element with the number of

The baby names data set consists of over 200 files. Each file contains a list of 100 names, along with the number of times each name was used. Entries in the files are ordered from most frequently used to least frequently used. There are two files for each year: one containing names used for girls
