15-112 Fundamentals of Programming

For this homework, there is no starter file. You have to create your own .py file and submit it to Autolab. You can take a previous starter file and modify it appropriately.

Please add your name, Andrew id, and section at the top of the file.

APPLY TOP-DOWN DESIGN, USE LOTS OF HELPER FUNCTIONS.

Parts of this homework will be manually graded.

You will be graded on style. You can lose up to 10 poins for style (out of 100 points). Please see here for the style rubric.

You may make up to 4 Autolab submissions. As usual, only your last one counts.

Questions

1. Attend 2 TP lectures [40pts] [manually graded]

As you prepare to start your term projects, our TAs have volunteered to hold a few lectures that we think will be super beneficial for your term projects. We will be teaching you a few important skills that may come in handy when working on your term projects, such as image processing, working with user input(dialog boxes, buttons, etc.), 3d graphics with Tkinter, etc. We are offering 5 such sessions:

Topic	Time	Location
User input & tkinter	Friday 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm	GHC 4215
PIL/Image Processing	Friday 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm	GHC 4215
AI and Backtracking	Saturday 11:00 am - 12:00 pm	GHC 4215
Monte Carlo/Markov Chains	Saturday 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm	GHC 4215
3D in tkinter	Saturday 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm	GHC 4215

You are required to attend 2 of these lectures (though we highly encourage you to attend all the others that you think will be useful for your term project).
