This assessment is to be completed individually .In this assessment, you will develop a program that meets the specifications described in the case study.
This assessment is designed to test your understanding and practical application of Python 3 functions, including the ability to receive a variable number of keyword and positional arguments. Additionally, it provides an opportunity to demonstrate your comprehension of namespaces and scopes.
You will be provided with a case study which will require you to use your problem-solving skills and develop a program. You will need to create a solution and develop the program using Python 3 language.
You have been hired as a senior software engineer for a leading tech company called "Tech Genius" Your team is developing a Python library that focuses on advanced data manipulation and analysis. As part of your responsibilities, you need to design and implement the following functions based on the provided requirements:
Task 1: This function should receive a variable number of positional arguments, which are numeric values.It should calculate and return the mean,median,and standard deviation of the given values.
Example usage of Task 1 function calculate_statistics:
print(calculate_statistics(1,2,3,4,5)) #Output:{'mean':3.0,'median':3.0,'std_dev':1.414} print(calculate_statistics(10,15,20,25,30,35)) #Output:{'mean':22.5,'median':22.5,'std_dev':9.354} |
Task 2: This function should receive a variable number of keyword arguments, which are dictionaries.It should merge all the dictionaries into a single dictionary and return the result.
Example usage of Task 2 function merge_dictionaries:
print(merge_dictionaries(a={'x':1,'y':2},b={'z':3})) #Output:{'x':1,'y':2,'z': 3} print(merge_dictionaries(x={'a':10},y={'b':20},z={'c':30})) #Output:{'a':10,'b':20,'c':30} |
Task 3: This function should receive a variable number of positional arguments,which are strings.It should format the strings by replacing place holders with corresponding values and return the formatted string.
Example usage of Task 3 function format_string:
print(format_string("Hello,{ }!","John")) #Output:"Hello,John!" print(format_string("Today is { } and the temperature is { } degrees.","Monday",25)) #Output:"Today is Monday and the temperature is 25 degrees." |
This assessment aims to achieve the following subject learning outcomes:
