• The deadline for submitting your well documented project is the 01/03/2025

• You have to prepare a pitch presentation for the session of 21/01/2025

• Your submission should tell a story:

  • What is the goal of the project?

  • What is the roadmap to reach that goal?

  • What did you try / did not work / can be improved upon?

• You have to at least hand in a Jupyter Notebook documenting code snippets (i.e. spotlights on important code parts), also if you are just working with .py files

• You can alternatively upload a zip file containing the Jupyter Notebook and needed project files (own libraries, ressources, diagrams)

• In a group project it should become clear, who participated and who worked on what part

General remarks on the project

• The project should at least look and feel like the Projects you build in the course

• Use a GUI

  • E.g. Tkinter (discussed in day 27)

Model Notebook

Please follow the structure of this notebook for your submission (usage of chapters, introductory block, individual contributions, additional resources like diagrams etc.):

If you want to include graphics or other files, please contain everything in one zip file. The opencampus.sh system only accepts single file uploads. Subsequent uploads will overwrite previous submissions!

Note1: Object Oriented Programming is a difficult but powerful concept, please take your time to revise the topic!

Note 2: If you want to install packages in the environment we set up during the course, you can do so by running %pip installpackage_name (notice the %-sign!) e.g. %pip install PrettyTable in one of your notebook cells after you selected the environment. This is only needed once, after that it can always be reimported with import. If it doesn't work (e.g. in Colab, try !pip installpackage_name with ! instead of %)
