Start with the following Python code.

alphabet = “abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz”

test_dups = [“zzz”,”dog”,”bookkeeper”,”subdermatoglyphic”,”subdermatoglyphics”]

test_miss = [“zzz”,”subdermatoglyphic”,”the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”]

def histogram(s):
d = dict()
for c in s:
if c not in d:
d[c] = 1
else:
d[c] += 1
return d

Copy the code above into your program but write all the other code for this assignment yourself. Do not copy any code from another source. 

Part 1 

Write a function called has_duplicates that takes a string parameter and returns True if the string has any repeated characters. Otherwise, it should return False.

Implement has_duplicates by creating a histogram using the histogram function above. Do not use any of the implementations of has_duplicates that are given in your textbook. Instead, your implementation should use the counts in the histogram to decide if there are any duplicates.

Write a loop over the strings in the provided test_dups list. Print each string in the list and whether or not it has any duplicates based on the return value of has_duplicates for that string. For example, the output for “aaa” and “abc” would be the following.

aaa has duplicates
abc has no duplicates

Print a line like one of the above for each of the strings in test_dups.

Part 2 

Write a function called missing_letters that takes a string parameter and returns a new string with all the letters of the alphabet that are not in the argument string. The letters in the returned string should be in alphabetical order.

Your implementation should use a histogram from the histogram function. It should also use the global variable alphabet. It should use this global variable directly, not through an argument or a local copy. It should loop over the letters in alphabet to determine which are missing from the input parameter.

The function missing_letters should combine the list of missing letters into a string and return that string.

Write a loop over the strings in list test_miss and call missing_letters with each string. Print a line for each string listing the missing letters. For example, for the string “aaa”, the output should be the following.

aaa is missing letters bcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

If the string has all the letters in alphabet, the output should say it uses all the letters. For example, the output for the string alphabet itself would be the following.

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz uses all the letters

Print a line like one of the above for each of the strings in test_miss.

Submit your Python program. It should include the following.

• The provided code for alphabet, test_dups, test_miss, and histogram.
• Your implementation of the has_duplicates function.
• A loop that outputs duplicate information for each string in test_dups.
• Your implementation of the missing_letters function.
• A loop that outputs missing letters for each string in test_miss.

Also submit the output from running your program.

Your submission will be assessed using the following Aspects.

1. Does the program include a function called has_duplicates that takes a string parameter and returns a boolean?
2. Does the has_duplicates function call the histogram function?
3. Does the program include a loop over the strings in test_dups that calls has_duplicate on each string?
4. Does the program correctly identify whether each string in test_dups has duplicates?
5. Does the program include a function called missing_letters that takes a string parameter and returns a string?
6. Does the missing_letters function call the histogram function?
7. Does the missing_letters function use the alphabet global variable directly?
8. Does the program include a loop over the strings in test_miss that calls missing_letters on each string?
9. Does the program correctly identify the missing letters for each string in test_miss, including each string that “uses all the letters”?

For this module, we’ll be fleshing out your work from previous weeks to complete a rough draft of your final project. You have already identified your topic and the social media choices for your project, and done research on comparable brands or sites.

Now it’s time to get it all ready. This week, you should spend more time researching comparable options on your social media choices. Then it’s time to put it together!

First, you should put together your overview of the project. This starts with the description of your business or brand. Write about what it is and what you want for it, and add the research you have found on comparable businesses or brands. Then what are the goals you have for the business or brand? What are your general goals with social media for it? What audience are you aiming to reach?

Now on to the social media aspect of the project. If you have a real business, brand, or site to work on, you can start by putting the site profiles into the 4 social media sites you’ve chosen (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, etc.). Screenshots will work for these that you have really made. If you don’t really have a business or brand, you do not need to create faux profiles. However, you should write the information you would include in your profile for each one.

Then, for each social media site, write about your goal for that site, how you will accomplish them, and some ideas for posts or pins. Who is your audience? When and where can you best reach them? How can you really use social media to work for you?

This project should have at least 1-2 pages for your overview and then approximately 1-2 pages per social media site. So the draft will be 5 – 10 pages long.

There will be the option to present your project to your instructor and class next week in the live classroom, so begin thinking about if this is something you’d like to do.

ALA format

APA formated document, describing the specific aspects from the Challenger accident that helps us better understand the importance of effective data visualization.

Also, complete the following activity:

• Re-create at least 1 visual aid from Tufte’s article that you believe would better describe the dangers surrounding the launch.
• Expound upon Richard Feynman’s congressional investigation and articulate a better argument as to the cause of the accident.
• What did you learn from this case study?

Hello,

I have a senior Project course starting august 28th 2019 – December 15th 2019.

I need help with this course from start to end. I will attach a document my professor sent me on what to expect to work with for the course projects….PLEASE DON’T BID IF YOU CANT HELP OR KNOW COMPUTER SCIENCE.. 

Thank you.
