For your final project, you must find a project that you will use Python to complete. There are several websites with Python projects so I leave that to you to Google for them and select a project. I expect this project to be between 50 and 100 lines of code and include functions and classes. It must be submitted in a Jupyter notebook UNLESS you give me an extremely good reason why it can’t be. Preferring Python scripting is not a good reason, it must be technical reason.

You will keep a Word document that acts as a “journal” for all the work you do on your project. That first entry will be the submission, and approval or denial, of your project. When you submit your project, you must discuss the following topics:

1) How many lines of code do you think the project will take

2) The website or book where you got the suggestion. If you got the idea from several sites, list them all. If you are doing a project that is work related, state that then describe how it will help you. You will get some bonus points if you are picking a project that you are truly interested in. As an example, if you are interested in disinformation work and want to develop a program to help you scrape data from Twitter, I will look favorably on the project. However, you need to describe why you’re interested in the area as well as describe how the program will help you.

3) How many hours a week you will commit to working on your project. Be honest. This will let me know if I think you can actually get your project done.

4) An honor statement that says that you will do all of your own work, that you will list in your journal all sources of help you received such as a classmate or stackoverflow. If you use a site like stackoverflow, you must post the link for any question you asked or post that helped you solve your issue. Finally, your statement must say that you will only ask a fellow classmate for help. Yes, if you want to earn extra credit, you can help your classmates with problems they are having with their project. However, there’s a catch. You can only use the Final Project discussion board to ask and answer questions. If I feel that someone is asking too many questions, they will be restricted from asking more until they have correctly answered/helped a fellow student. If someone is giving complete answers, they will be removed from the board and will not be able to ask or answer questions. The idea is that you help each other, not do each other’s work. Giving links to answers, giving short answers or pointing out errors without giving the way to solve the error is what is expected. The discussion board can be found here – Final Project

This assignment provides you an opportunity to practice

• writing programs using Button, FlowPane, Stage and Scene.
• writing programs using Font and Text classes, Text methods, Stage and Scene.
• writing programs using ImageView, Button, Pane, Stage and Scene classes, and how to create and register event handler.

Directions

Please solve three (3) programming problems related to the content presented in Chapters 14 and 15 in your text. You can find the programming problems in the attached file (Module 7 Programming Problems Worksheet.docx (Links to an external site.)). For Programming Problem 3, you will need the card files (card.zip (Links to an external site.)).

• Download the worksheet and save it as Mod7-Worksheet-Programming-Last-First.docx. For example, Mod7-Worksheet-Programming-Smith-John.docx.
• Consider the problem, design an algorithm (or algorithms) that would solve the problem, and then implement the algorithm in Java.
• Create a new folder and name it as Mod7-Java-Programming-Last-First, for example, Mod7-Java-Programming-Smith-John.
• Write the source code for each problem and save them as .java files in the folder you created. There are three programming problems for this module so you should have three .java files. Name your java files as Mod7Problem#.java, for example, Mod7Problem1.java.
• Copy data file(s) used for your program and/or output file into the folder. In this module, make sure to include image files/folder in the folder.
• Please insert the algorithm written in pseudocode as a comment in the beginning of your program.
• Take screenshots of your running program – you can take screenshots using PrintScreen or any tool that you are familiar with, making sure that the console window in which you run the program appears on the screen.
• Copy the screenshots in the worksheet. If your program has different outcomes, take screenshots of each variation.

Submission

• Compress the folder that saves all of your java files as .zip file. Please note don’t save the worksheet in the same folder as they need to be submitted seperately.
• Submit the following two files as attachments by clicking the Submit Assignment button above.
  • Mod7-Java-Programming-Last-First.zip (including .java files, data files, and image files/folder).
  • Mod7-Worksheet-Programming-Last-First.docx.

For additional content, use the notes view of PowerPoint to include details. Minimize pictures to those that are relevant to the content. If you quote a source directly in your presentation, a citation must also be included on that slide for the quote in APA format. Do not provide citations for paraphrased information in your slides. For this presentation the final references slide will suffice.

Create an activity diagram of the Request For Proposal (RFP)/Proposal interaction between a potential customer and Acme Electric, LLC (Acme).

You are an analyst tasked to create an activity diagram in the analysis phase of an object-oriented analysis and design project. What follows is the interaction between a potential customer and Acme. The activity starts when the potential customer creates and sends an RFP. This activity ends when the potential customer either accepts or rejects Acme’s Proposal and possibly informs Acme of the decision.

You are NOT documenting a system, you are creating an activity diagram for a business process. The business process that you will model using an activity diagram is as follows:

A potential customer (Customer) creates and sends to the owner of Acme (Owner) a Request For Proposal (RFP) which includes an Electrical Drawing (ED) for the proposed work. An ED is an architecture blueprint which only includes the electrical portion of the work.

Owner studies the ED and RFP for the following:

• Amount and types of electrical materials required
• Amount and types of special equipment that may be required
• Amount of labor that may be required
• Specific dates Customer may have asked for the project to occur
• Any other information that Customer may have included in the RFP

Owner sends to his supply person (Supply) a:

• Bill of Materials (BOM)
• special equipment list

For both lists, Supply enters the wholesale price and availability of each item. The gathering of data for each list is not dependent on the other for completion and return. Supply obtains the information for the BOM either from stock on-hand or electrical supply vendors, completes the form, and returns the BOM to the Owner. Supply obtains the special equipment information from equipment vendors, completes the form, and returns the special equipment list to Owner.

Owner checks his crews’ calendars for availability during the time period that the customer has requested.

After Owner has gathered all the information, Owner decides on a proposal price. Owner prepares a proposal and sends it to Customer.

If Customer likes the proposal, they sign it and return it to Owner. If Customer does not like the proposal, they either ignore it or inform the owner of the decision.
