Course Description:
This course is an in-depth introduction to Python, one of the most widely used programming languages in the
world. Designed for beginners with little or no prior coding experience, the course covers the fundamentals of
programming through practical, hands-on examples.
Students will learn Python syntax, control structures, functions, data types, and object-oriented programming.
The course also introduces key libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, and matplotlib, providing a foundation for
data analysis and scripting. By the end of the course, participants will be able to write clear, efficient, and
well-structured Python programs.
CourseObjectives:
CO1: Understand basic features and history of Python.
CO2: Conceptual different types of modules.
CO3: Apply suitable Python programming constructs, built-in functions, data structures using Python
libraries to solve a problem.
CO4: Analyze basic Data visualization and File handling, Exception Handling in Python.
Prerequisites:
Understanding of Problem solving techniques using a programming language and basic
python programing.

Hours
1 Write a program to find whether a number is a prime number 2Hr
2 Write a program to print m raise to power n, where m and n are read from the user 2Hr
3 Write a program having a parameterized function that returns True or False 2Hr
depending on whether the parameter passed is even or odd
4 Write a program to print the summation of the following series up to n terms:1-2+3- 2Hr
4+5- 6+7……..n
5 Write a menu driven program to perform the following operations on 2Hr
strings using string built in functions.
a. Find the frequency of a character in a string
b. Replace a character by another character in a string.
c. Remove the first occurrence of a character from a string.
d. Remove all occurrences of a character from a string.
6 Write a program that accepts two strings and returns theindices ofall the occurrences 2Hr
of the second string in the first string as a list. If the second string is not present in
the first string, then it should return -1
7 Using Numpy module write menu driven program to do following 2Hr
• Create an array filled with 1’s.
• Find maximum and minimum values from an array
• Dot product of 2 arrays.
Reshape 1-D array to 2-D array
8 Write a function that takes a sentence as input from the user and calculates the 2Hr
frequency of each letter. Use a variable of dictionary type to maintain the count
9 Consider a tuple t1=(1,2,5,7,9,2,4,6,8,10). Write a program to perform following 2Hr
operations:
• Print content soft1 in 2 separate lines such that half values come on oneline
And other half in the next line.
• Print all even values of t1 as another tuple t2.
• Concatenate a tuple t2=(11,13,15) with t1.
Return maximum and minimum value from t1
10 Write a function that reads a file file1 and copies only alternative lines to another file 3Hr
file2. Alternative lines copied should be the odd numbered lines
11 Write a Python program to handle a Zero Division Error exception when dividing a 2 Hr
number by zero
12 Write a program that reads a list of integers from the user and throws an exception if 2Hr
any numbers are duplicates
13 Write a program that makes use of a function to display sine, cosine, polynomial and 2Hr
exponential curves
14 Take as input in the months and profits made by a company ABC over a year. 3Hr
Represent this data using a line plot. Generated line plot must include X axis label
name = Month Number and Y axis label name = Total profit
