If you did not finish the activity from the last class to set up
directories in your home directory, please do that now. Once you have
done that, use the terminal to add a directory to your activities
directory called activity3
. All of the code you write today should
go in this directory.
Age in Seconds
In Emacs, create a Python program in a file called
age_in_seconds.py
. The program should print your age in
seconds. Assume that there are 365 days in all years. You don't
need to compute your exact age, just convert your age in years to
seconds. The program should use Python's arithmetic operations to
perform the calculations and should print the number of seconds
nicely formatted and labeled.
How Many Handshakes
In Emacs, create a Python program in a file called
handshakes.py
. The program should print how many handshakes it
would take for every student at Roanoke to shake hands with every
other student at Roanoke. Assume the number of students at
Roanoke is 1,869. The program should use Python's arithmetic
operations to perform the calculations and should print the number
of handshakes nicely formatted and labeled.
