1) StageJ(Journey)
Introduction
In computing, the term text processing refers to the discipline of mechanizing the
creation or manipulation of electronic text. Text usually refers to all the alphanumeric
characters specified on the keyboard of the person performing the mechanization. Text
processing involves computer commands which invoke content, content changes, and
cursor movement, for example to search and replace, format, generate a processed report
of the content, or filter a file or report of a text file.
Microsoft Word is word processing software that is used to manipulate a text document,
such as a resume or a report. Text is typically entered by typing and the software provides
tools for copying, deleting and various types of formatting. Some of the functions of MS
Word include creating, editing, saving and printing documents, copying, pasting, moving
and deleting text within documents, formatting text such as font type and style, creating
and editing tables, inserting elements from other software, such as illustrations or
paragraphs and, correcting spelling and grammar.

analogy is a reference to the slide projector. Slides may contain text, graphics, sound,
movies, and other objects, which may be arranged freely. The presentation can be
printed, displayed live on a computer, or navigated through at the command of the
presenter. For larger audiences the computer display is often a video projector. Slides can
also form the basis of webcasts.
PowerPoint provides three types of movements:
• Entrance, emphasis, and exit of elements on a slide itself are controlled by what
PowerPoint calls Custom Animations.
• Transitions, on the other hand, are movements between slides. These can be
animated in a variety of ways.
• Custom animation can be used to create small story boards by animating pictures to
enter, exit or move.
2) Stage a1 (apply)
Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Start MS PowerPoint.
Solution:
1. Click the Start button
2. Click on Microsoft Office PowerPoint on the Programs menu. If you don’t see it
there, go to Microsoft Office group first.
3. Once you run the program, you will get a new window on the right side of the
screen with several sections. Each section has different options.
The main part of the screen is divided into two sections. The main section shows the
current slide, while on the left, slide miniatures appear, allowing you to see the
current slide in its context.

In the top left corner of the screen is the Quick Access Toolbar which contains icons
to common commands, e.g. save and undo. Below this is the Ribbon, with tabs along
the top. Each tab has a set of icons which are used to give instructions to PowerPoint.
Currently the HOME tab is displayed.
At the very bottom of the window, is the Status Bar. This shows various information,
e.g. which slide you are currently looking at (here you are on slide 1) and the language
you’re working in. On the right-hand side of the Status Bar are icons to change the
view of the slides and to zoom in or out.
Activity 2:
Use Design themes.
Solution:
If you are creating a new presentation:
You could use a template different from the ones given to you by default. We go to the
website http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/ and search for the Template
Fireworks (Equivalent of Theme Fireworks in the new version of PowerPoint). Of the
several search results that you obtain, click and download the one for PowerPoint 2003
(It is compatible with 2010). If there is a problem, read the instructions on how to
manually download it, and the need for uncompressing the file. Remember the location
where you saved it, because you need to go back to it. The file will have a fileextension of
POT.
1. In the Design section, left click on the bottom arrow on the right of the Themes
. Select “Browse for Themes”, and look in the folder where you
placed the Fireworks template. Select it
2. You can search for a different theme, also known as template on the same website,
to use it for your slides.
If you want to apply a template to an existing presentation:
1. Open the presentation to which you want to apply the template.

2. Click the Design option on the main menu. The Apply Design Template box
opens at the right side of your screen with the small version of the templates.
3. Click on the Template you wish to use for your slides.
Activity 3:
View the PowerPoint window.
Solution:
When you open a presentation or create a new one you will see four main areas on the
screen:
1. Slides /Outline Tab: it is located on the left hand side of the screen.
a. If you click the Outline tab:
• It will display your presentation text in the form of an outline, without the
graphics.
• It is easy to move text on or among slides by dragging text to reorder the
information
b. If you click the Slides tab:
• It will display the slides of your presentation as small images, called thumbnails.
• You can quickly navigate through the slides in your presentation using this tab.
• You can also add, delete, or rearrange slides on this tab.

2. Slide Pane: it is located at the center of the screen, next to the Outline pane. It
containsthe current slide of your presentation, where the cursor is. The slide will
display the text, graphics and background design.
3. Notes Pane: it is located right below the Slide pane. This pane allows you to
typespeaker notes for your reference. They are used as reminders you want to make
during the presentation, though they are not visible to the audience.
4. Task Pane: The Task Pane is a docked window within thePowerPoint interfacethat
provides more options than normal dialog boxes. The Task Pane is not always visible.
If you want it to appear, click on the Insert menu, and then in the Clip Art item.
At the bottom right corner, there is a set of buttons , collectively called View
buttons. These buttons allow you to quickly switch between PowerPoint views. They are
(from left to right):
• Normal View button: it displays the standard size for the Outline, Slide and Notes
panes.
• Slide Sorter View button: it displays a smaller version of all your slides. If you
havemore slides that what you actually see on the screen, you can scroll down
to see the rest. You see neither the Outline nor the Notes panes.
• Slide Show button: it starts your presentation. You will see your slides one by
one, withslide transitions, special effects, video, and audio clips if you included
any of them.
Activity 4:
Save the presentation.
Solution:
11. Go to the File menu and click Save As. Select a “PowerPoint Presentation”
12. In the File name textbox, type the name that you want to give to your presentation.
13. Click on the Save in list arrow and select the storage device where you want to
save your presentation.
14. In the Save as type the extension pptx will appear. Click on the Save button.
NOTE: If you want to save an existing presentation you will use SAVE, unless you want to
save it under a different name. Then you will use the SAVE AS option.
Activity 5:
Close presentation and exit the program.
Solution:
7. Click on the File menu and select the Close option.
8. Click Yes, if necessary (if you want to save your work)
9. Click on the Microsoft Office button and select the Exit PowerPoint option.
Microsoft PowerPoint will terminate.

Activity 6:
Enter slide text on a slide.
Solution:
7. When you have a new slide, you will see something like “Click to add title” or
“Click to add text”. Move the mouse pointer to that area.
8. Click on that area. The insertion point, a blinking vertical line, indicates where
your text will appear in the title or text placeholder.
9. When you finish typing, click outside the area.
10. Or you can go to the Insert Menu, and select Text Box. Place the cursor where you
want to insert the text, and make your box.
Activity 7:
Create a new slide.
Solution:
1. Click the New Slide button on the Home menu. Choose the Layout of your slide
among the different layout schemes that appear when you click on Layout.
2. Each layout will display the layout’s name (E.g. Title and Content).
3. Click on the desired layout. For example: Title and Content, and select Clip Art.

Activity 8:
Work in Outline view.
Solution:
1. Whenever you see the slide icon in the Outline pane, it means that whatever text
you see or type next to it represents the slide’s title.
2. On the Paragraph section of the main menu, you will find among all the buttons,
theIncrease Indent and Decrease Indent buttons. They look like this:
a. Decrease Indent: If it is enabled, you can move an item up the
hierarchy.For example if you have the following outline:
i. Games
ii. WarCraft II
iii. Diablo II
iv. System Shock
If you select item i, then click Decrease Indent, would make the outline look
like this:
a. Games
i.WarCraft II
ii. Diablo II
iii. System Shock
b. Increase Indent: If it is enabled, you can move an item down the
hierarchy. Forexample if you have the following:
1. Hardware
2. Software
3. Application Software
4. System Software
If you select items 3 and 4 and click the Increase Indent button, the
outline would look like this:
1. Hardware
2. Software
a. Application Software
b. System Software
Activity 9:
Enter Notes for slides.
Solution:
12. Go to the slide, where you want to have a reminder.
13. Click in the Notes pane. The Notes pane is at the bottom of the screen, below the
slides pane.
14. Type the notes that you wish to use as a reminder
15. Click outside the Notes pane area to finish.
Activity 10:
View your presentation.
Solution:
There are three view choices in PowerPoint: Normal, Slide Sorter, and Slide Show
View. You can access these views under the View Menu at top or by clicking on the view
icons at the bottom of the screen :
1. NormalView: This is the main work window. In this view you can easily
edit your slide, create a background color, insert a picture, format a picture, insert
text and/or format text.
2. Slide Sorter View: This view shows thumbnails of every slide in your
presentation, like a light table. You can move slides around (click once and
highlight, then drag), delete slides and choose where to add new slides.
In the Slide Sorter view, click once the slide to select/ highlight it. Then drag and
release where you want your slide to go. You will see a thin line appear as you

move your cursor—this indicates where the slide will appear when you release
your mouse button. You can also do this in the left sidebar of the Normal View.
3. Slide Show View:In the Slide Show tab, you can see different options for viewing
the slides e.g. you can view presentation from the start or from the
current slide .You can view your slides just as they will appear during a
presentation. To view the whole show from the beginning, you can also use Slide
Show View show from the top toolbar. If you select this (instead of the toolbar
icon), you will see a small triangular tool in the lower left. Click on this and it will
give you other options. One nice option is Pointer Options. This allows you to use
a pen or pointer tool as you show your presentation.
Activity 11:
Add a background to your slide.
Solution:
12. From the Design menu on top toolbar click Background.
13. In the Format Background dialogue box click on the pull down color menu to see
your color options.
14. Black is recommended for the background. Choose a color or click on More Colors.
If you want to apply this color to the background of ALL YOUR SLIDES click Apply
to all.

Activity 12:
Add a grid display to your working view. Insert a picture to the grid. Adjust the picture
(size, position, adjustment).
Solution:
8. Go to View tab.
9. Check box for gridlines.
10. Click the Insert tab, click Picture.
11. Browse to find picture and select it.

12. Size of picture: Select your picture by clicking on it once. You will see the circular
“handle bars” outlining the image. To enlarge or make the image smaller, simply
position your mouse over a corner circle. It will change to a double-headed arrow;
click and drag. Always use a “corner” handle and drag diagonally. This will
maintain the aspect ratio of the image and not distort it.
13. Position on slide: Make sure your object is selected (the “handle bars” should be
showing). When you move your cursor into the center of the image, it will turn
into a 4- headed arrow. Now you can move the entire image around on your slide-
simply click and drag the picture to the desired location. You can also use your
keyboard arrow keys to move the object up and down and side to side.
14. Picture Tools: Select the picture to see the Picture Tools tab. Click Picture Tools
to see options.
In the “Adjust” box you can choose to make changes to your images such as
brightness, contrast and color.This is also where the “Compress” function is
found. Use Compress to reduce the size and resolution of an image and of your
presentation. For details, click the help icon and search “Reduce file size of a
picture”.
Cropping reduces the picture by removing part of the image at an edge. You can
crop by clicking crop on the Picture Tools Ribbon and using the Crop handles
that appear. You can also crop to a specific size or rotate the picture by clicking
the arrow at the lower right corner of the size box on the ribbon to get the size
dialog box.

Activity 13:
Add text; format it.
Solution:
1. Select Insert tab and click Text Box.
2. Click where you want your text box and the box will appear. Grab a corner to
resize the box. You can resize and move the box after you have added your text.
3. Highlight the text. On the Home Tab, Select font and size and color. Other options
are also found here. When your text box is active, you can click on the Drawing
Tools Tab for more options.
Activity 14:
Add a hyperlink.
Solution:
A Hyperlink allows you to connect to another slide, a web page or a file.
1. Select the text or object that you want to use as a hyperlink.
2. On the insert tab, select Hyperlink.
3. In the hyperlink dialog box you can click theBrowse the Web .icon or just fill
in the url in the address box. It is wise to copy and paste long urls to avoid typos.
Always test your hyperlinks in your presentation.

Activity 15:
For acquiring a folder of images, use photo album feature.
Solution:
This allows you to take a whole folder of images and bring them all in at the same time,
correctly sized.
1. Go to the Insert tab, and select Photo Album.
2. Select “File/ Disk” button and locate the file folder which you want to import.
Open the folder and select all the items (click on them using mouse and the shift
key). Now click on the Insert button. Select (highlight) images and click “Insert”
button. You should now see the dialog box.
3. Make sure “Fit to slide” is selected in the Picture layout box, and click on the
Create button. You will now have one slide for each image file, sized to the slide.
4. To change all the backgrounds to black, simply follow the steps outlined above
for Add a Background (color) to Your Slide and “Apply to all”.

Activity 16:
Create following two slides by following the above activities.
Now create following four slides (starting from left to right, then downwards) in the
same way, choosing the correct layout as you proceed.

Solution:
1. Create first two slides as you created slides in previous activities.
2. For slide 3, right click on slide miniature in the left pane and choose Duplicate
Slide. Modify the text.
3. On slide 4, a Two Content slide layout is used. In each content box, there are
some sub-bullet points: One below Microsoft Office and second under Other
Programs. For this, type the main list item, press Enter to add a new main bullet
point. Press Tab or click on the Increase list level button to set a sublevel
bullet. Type in the required text and press Enter. Repeat.
4. For slide 5, a Tile and Content layout is used. In the content box, click onInsert
Chart icon or use Insert Chart icon in the Insert tab to choose a pie
chart. The original date in the pie chart was changed through the table that
appears, and the Quick Layout button on the Chart Tools Design tab was used
to get percentages.
5. On slide 6, a Tile and Content layout is used. An organization chart is produced.
a. In the content box, click on theInsert SmartArt Graphic icon or
from the Insert tab, choose the same .

b. Within the Choose a SmartArt Graphic window, click on Hierarchy on
the left
c. Select the first Organization Chart layout on the right and click [OK]
d. Enter the information that you want in the boxes - to add/cut boxes or
shapes, right click on them then choose the appropriate option from the
shortcut menu (you can also <Delete> them)

Remember to save the latest version of your presentation - press <Ctrl+S>. At this point,
it’s also worth doing a spell check on your presentation – to do this, move to the REVIEW
tab and then click on the [Spelling and Grammar] button on the left.
Activity 17:
Use guides, gridlines and rulers again.
Solution:
When creating your slides, the placeholders have largely been left in their default
positions. Often, people move them around slightly, usually to cram extra information
onto a slide. This isn’t good practice – not only do you end up with too much on a slide
but the consistency of layout is lost. If you do need to do this then it’s better to do so on
the Master Slide (see later) but it also helps if you display the Rulers and Guides. To do
this:
1. Right click on a slide and choose Ruler – a ruler appears at the top and left
2. Right click again and this time choose Grid and Guide - the following dialog box
appears:
3. Turn on Display grid on screen and Display drawing guides on screen – press
<Enter> for [OK]
The guides are the lines which split the slide exactly into quarters, while the default grid
is shown by dotted lines 2cm square. Each dot represents 0.4cm. Objects are lined up with
the grid; to see this:
4. Click on the Title placeholder (Training on Microsoft Office) on slide 6 then press
<Esc>
5. Use the arrow keys to move the placeholder slightly. Note: If you have Snap objects
to grid turned on, each key press moves it 0.2cm (a grid setting) exactly
6. Move the placeholder back to its original position – or use <Ctrl+z> to [Undo] the
changes
7. To hide the grid, repeat step 2 then turn off Display grid on screen – press
<Enter> for [OK]

Activity 18:
Delete and Hide slides.
Solution:
It's easiest to delete slides in Slide Sorter view (though you can also do so in Normal
view), especially if you have a lot of slides to deal with:
1. Click on the [SlideSorter] button (either on the Status Bar or VIEW tab)
2. Click on the slide to be deleted (e.g. slide 4, Training Topics) then press the
<Delete> key
3. To reinstate the deleted slide (you were just practising), press <Ctrl z> for [Undo]
You might want to temporarily hide a slide – for example, if you are giving the
presentation to a different group of people for whom that slide is not appropriate. You
could also have extra hidden slides which you could add in if you had plenty of time or if
someone asked a particular question during the show. When a slide is hidden it remains
within the PowerPoint file, but is not displayed during the presentation. To hide a slide:
4. Right click on the slide to be hidden (in Normal View you have to right click on
the slide miniature)
5. From the shortcut menu choose Hide Slide - you’ll find that the number
underneath the slide now has a line through it indicating that it’s hidden
6. To show the slide again, just repeat steps 4 and 5
Tip: To display a hidden slide when running a show, press the <h> key on the keyboard
or type in the slide number and press <Enter>.
Activity 19:
Instead of simply moving abruptly from one slide to another during a presentation, slide
transitions allow slides to dissolve into each other, using a variety of different special
effects. These can make your on-screen presentation look even better and more
professional. Use different effects in your presentation.
Solution:
1. Check you are in Normal view and that the first slide is selected
2. Move to the TRANSITIONS tab to see the following ribbon:
Dominating the ribbon is the Transition to This Slide group. As you click on an
icon, you’ll see the transition effect on the slide (there is also a down arrow that
will show you all the different transition effects in one window). The [Effect
Options] button lets you change the direction of the effect. Timing (the group to
the right) lets you change the speed of the transition effects.
3. Choose one of the transition effects for the first slide (the [down] arrow shows
all the effects).Note that a small star symbol appears to the left of the first slide

miniature - this indicates that a transition has been setup on this slide. Explore
the options.
4. Click on [Effect Options] and change the direction of the effect
5. Increase the Duration of the transition to slow it down and see the effect more
clearly.
6. You can also set up a Sound: but note that the speakers might have been disabled
on the Lab PCs.
7. Another useful feature moves on a slide automatically (without you having to
click the mouse button):Under Advance Slide, set the next slide to appear After:
a set number of seconds
8. Move to the next slide and repeat steps 3 to 7, choosing different effects
9. Finally save your presentation (press <Ctrl+s>) then run it (<F5>) to see the
effects - press <Esc> when you've seen enough
Having different transition effects between slides may add interest but it isn’t good
practice. It distracts from the talk and isn’t good for accessibility. It’s best to stick to one
transition throughout (and only use a different one for effect, if you need to). To
standardize the transition:
10. Remove the current effects by choosing [None] (the first in the list) then click on
[Apply to All]
11. Next, choose your preferred transition (repeat steps 3 to 7) then click on [Apply
to All]
12. Finally, press <F5> to see the effects
Activity 20:
PowerPoint allows information on your slides to appear one item at a time. This stops
your audience from reading ahead of you, making them concentrate on each point
individually. Try to animate a set of bullet points.
Solution:
1. Move to the ANIMATIONS tab then click on a slide with a bulleted list on it (e.g.
slide 2)
2. Click on the bullet points then move the mouse over the Animations icons and
watch the effects
3. Click on the [down arrow] at the foot of the Animations scroll bar to see more
animations. Try setting up various animations for your slides.

4. From the list of animations choose one of them, e.g.Fade
5. Click on [Effect Options] (if active) and see what is available
6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 for another slide with bullet points, choosing a different
animation
Tip: As with slide transition, it isn't a good idea to use too many different animations as
they can distract the viewer. Always bear accessibility in mind and avoid some of the
more 'exciting' animations.
To see what you can do with advanced animation:
7. Click on the slide title on one of the slides that you’ve already animated
8. Next, click on the [Animation Pane] button in the Advanced Animation group
to display the task pane
9. Click on the [Add Animation] button and choose an Entrance animation

10. Click the <▲> button (or on [Move Earlier] in the Timing group) to animate it
before the list
11. Select the title again and this time [Add Animation] choosing an Emphasis
animation
12. Repeat step 10 to move it to second in the list
13. Click the [Play From] or [Preview] button to view your changes
14. Next, try animating the picture, displaying it after the title animations
15. Finally, save your presentation (press <Ctrl+s>) then run it from the first slide
(press <F5>)
Tip: You can also set up Exit effects and MotionPaths - for example, when the slide is
finished, you can get the picture to exit along a particular motion path. This is all done
via the [Add Animation] button (as above).

16. End by closing the Animation Pane (click on the button or on the [x] at its top
right)
Activity 21:
Create a Master slide. Master slides are very important as they control the layout of your
whole presentation. They allow you to create your own slide template which is applied
to every slide. This is useful if you want to put your own logo, picture or even just your
name in the same place on each slide.
Solution:
1. Move to the VIEW tab then click on the [Slide Master] icon in the MasterViews
group – a window similar to that below appears:
2. A Slide Master tab is displayed on the Ribbon indicating that you are in the Slide
Master view. Click on the first (top) slide miniature on the left
This is the Slide Master which is used by all the slides – any changes you make here are
applied to the whole presentation. The slide miniatures below are all the usual slide
layouts that are available, some of which are being used by certain slides. To make
changes just to a specific layout, you make them on that custom layout.
To change the look of all the information at the top/bottom of each slide:
3. Select the footer placeholders using the mouse to draw a selection rectangle over
the placeholders – hold down the mouse button and drag over them (the rectangle
must enclose the placeholders)
4. Move to the HOME tab and use buttons in the Font group to change the format,
e.g.font size
5. To change any placeholder's position, click on the edge (or, more easily, click on it
then press <Esc>) and use the <arrow_keys> to move it to its new position
6. To see the changes to all the slides, move to the SLIDE MASTER tab and [Close
Master View]
7. Save your presentation - press <Ctrl+s>

5) StageJ(Journey)
Introduction
Programming is simply the act of entering instructions for the computer to perform.
These instructions might crunch some numbers, modify text, look up information in files,
or communicate with other computers over the Internet.All programs use basic
instructions as building blocks. Here are a few of the most common ones, in English:
• “Do this; then do that.”

• “If this condition is true, perform this action; otherwise, do that action.”
• “Do this action that number of times.”
• “Keep doing that until this condition is true.”
You can combine these building blocks to implement more intricate decisions,
too.Programming is a creative task, somewhat like constructing a castle out of LEGO
bricks. You start with a basic idea of what you want your castle to look like and inventory
your available blocks. Then you start building. Once you’ve finished building your
program, you can pretty up your code just like you would your castle.
Python refers to the Python programming language (with syntax rules for writing what
is considered valid Python code) and the Python interpreter software that reads source
code (written in the Python language) and performs its instructions.The name Python
comes from the surreal British comedy group Monty Python, not from the snake. Python
programmers are affectionately called Pythonistas.
6) Stage a1 (apply)
Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Install Python on Windows.
Solution:
1. Visit https://www.python.org/downloads/ and download the latest version.
2. Run the downloaded software. Make sure you check option: Add Python 3.5 to
PATH.
3. To change install location, click on Customizeinstallation, then Next and enter
C:\python3.5 as install location or any other location you want.
4. If not checked, check Add Python to environment variables. This does the same
thing as Add Python 3.5 to PATH on the first install screen.
5. You can choose to install Launcher for all users or not, it does not matter much.
Launcher is used to switch between different versions of Python installed.

Activity 2:
Set the PATH variable to use Python from Windows Command line i.e. DOS prompt.
Solution:
1. For Windows 2000, XP, 2003 , click onControl Panel -> System -> Advanced ->
Environment Variables
2. Click on the variable named PATH in the System Variables section, then select
Edit and add ;C:\Python3.5) to the end of what is already there. Of course, use the
appropriate directory name.
3. For older versions of Windows, open the file C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT and add the line

;C:\Python3.5 (please verify that this folder exists, it will be different
for newer versions of Python) to the end of what is already there. Of
course, use the appropriate folder name.
• If the value was %SystemRoot%\system32; It will now become
%SystemRoot%\system32;C:\Python3.5
• Click OK and you are done. No restart is required, however you may
have to close and reopen the command line.

Activity 3:
Run Python prompt on Windows.
Solution:
1. For Windows users, you can run the interpreter in the command line if you have
set the PATH variable appropriately.
2. To open the terminal in Windows, click the start button and click Run. In the
dialog box, type cmd and press [enter] key.
3. Then, type pythonor py and ensure there are no errors.
Activity 4:
Run Python IDLE on Windows.
Solution:
IDLE (Integrated DeveLopment Environment or Integrated Development and Learning
Environment) is an integrated development environment for Python, which has been
bundled with the default implementation of the language.IDLE is intended to be a simple
IDE and suitable for beginners, especially in an educational environment.According to
the included README, its main features are:
• Multi-window text editor with syntax highlighting, autocompletion, smart indent

and other.
• Python shell with syntax highlighting.
• Integrated debugger with stepping, persistent breakpoints, and call stack
visibility.
1. Click on Start.
2. Search for Python IDLE.
3. Select it.

Activity 5:
Run and use the interpreter prompt.
Solution:
1. Open the terminal in your operating system, as done in Activity 3.
2. Open the Python prompt by typing py and pressing [enter] key.
3. Once you have started Python, you should see >>> where you can start typing
stuff. This is called the Python interpreter prompt.
4. At the Python interpreter prompt, type:print("Hello World")followed by the
[enter] key.You should see the words Hello World printed to the screen.
5. Notice that Python gives you the output of the line immediately! What you just
entered is a single Python statement.We use print to print any value that you
supply to it. Here, we are supplying the text Hello World and this is promptly
printed to the screen.

Activity 6:
Quit interpreter prompt.
Solution:
11. If you are using a GNU/Linux or OS X shell, you can exit the interpreter prompt by
pressing [ctrl + d] or entering exit() (note: remember to include the parentheses,
()) followed by the [enter] key.
12. If you are using the Windows command prompt, press [ctrl + z] followed by the
[enter] key.
Activity 7:
Add comment to a python statement.
Solution:
Comments are any text to the right of the #symbol and are mainly useful as notes for the
reader of the program.
1. Open Python IDLE.

2. Type print('hello world') # Note that print is a function. Press Enter.
OR
3. Comments are not executed i.e. output of the statement would still be hello world.
Activity 8:
Run Python scripts from command line. Use any text editor to write the script.
Solution:
1. Type the text below into a text editor and save as hello.py. Python files usually
have the .py extension.
#!/usr/bin/env python3
print('hello world')
2. If you are using Windows and Notepad++, it may look something like this:
You can use any text editor to create a Python program.
3. To start the program, open the command line and typepy hello.py
4. You should see a line of text showing “hello world”
Activity 9:
Write a Python program that uses multi-line comment.
Solution:
1. Single line comments start with #; while multi-line comments use three single-
quotes before and after the part you want to be commented.
2. Type the following piece of code in text editor and save it with the name
multicomment.py
#print(“I am a single line comment”)
print(“I am not a comment”)
‘’’
print(“we are in a multiline comment)
print(“we are still in a comment”)
‘’’
print(“we are out of the comment”)
3. Execute this script on command line. The result will not show single and multi-
line commented statements/lines.
Activity 10:

Use \ to write single Python statement in multiple lines. Try this on Python IDLE.
Solution:
1. Run Python IDLE and type in print(“hello world”). Press Enter. The output hello
world will be displayed on screen.
2. print(“hello world”) is a single statement of Python. To write single statement in
multiple lines (for example, if a single line gets too long and it should be written
in multiple lines for ease of understanding), backslash \ is used.
3. Type print(“hello \ and press Enter. Now the cursor is in next line. Type world”)
and press Enter.
Activity 11:
Repeat Activity 10 by writing code in a separate file, using Python IDLE.
Solution:
1. Run Python IDLE.
2. Go to File->New File. A new window will be displayed.
3. Type in the code as shown below.
4. Go to File->Save As and save the file with the name tryFile.py

5. Go to Run->Run Module. The output will be displayed on the Python Shell.
Activity 12:

Write multiple statements in a single line.
Solution:
1. Run Python IDLE or write python script and run it on command line.
2. Type in the following code.
print(“hello”); print(“world”)
3. Execute the code. You will see following output:
4. In python, semicolon (;) is used to separate two statements, written in a single

line.

LAB # 04
Statement Purpose:
In computer science and computer programming, a data type or simply type is a
classification identifying one of various types of data, such as integer, float or Boolean, that
determines the possible values for that type, the operations that can be done on values of
that type, the meaning of the data, and the way values of that type can be stored.
In computer programming, a variable or scalar is a storage location paired with an
associated symbolic name (an identifier), which contains some known or unknown quantity
of information referred to as a value.The variable name is the usual way to reference the
stored value; this separation of name and content allows the name to be used independently
of the exact information it represents.The identifier in computer source code can be bound
to a value during run time, and the value of the variable may thus change during the course
of program execution.
Python has two basic data types: Numbers and Strings. Number data types store numeric
values. Python supports four different numerical types: integers, long, float, and
complex.Strings in Python are identified as a contiguous set of characters represented in the
quotation marks. Python allows for either pairs of single or double quotes.
Activity Outcomes:
The lab will introduce students to:
• Python Numbers
• Python Strings
• Basic operations on numbers
• Basic operations on strings
Instructor Note:
fundamentals.

9) StageJ(Journey)
Introduction
Literal constants are values that are used as such. Their values do not change. An example
of a literal constant is a number, like 5, 1.23, or a string such as ‘This is a string’ or “It’s a
string!” The number 2 always represents itself and nothing else. It is a constant because
its value cannot be changed from 2. Numbers are mainly of two types – integers and floats.
An example of an integer is 2 which is just a whole number. Examples of floating point
numbers (or floats) are 3.23, 52.3E-4. A string is a sequence of characters. They are bunch
of words.
Variables are nothing but reserved memory locations to store values. This means that
when you create a variable you reserve some space in memory. Based on the data type of
a variable, the interpreter allocates memory and decides what can be stored in the
reserved memory. Therefore, by assigning different data types to variables, you can store
integers, decimals or characters in these variables.
Python supports different type of variables such as whole numbers, floating point
numbers and text. You do not need to specify the type of variable; you can simply assign
any value to a variable.
10) Stage a1 (apply)

Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Display numbers on screen using Python IDLE.
Solution:
1. Run Python IDLE
2. Type in any number, say 24 and press Enter.
3. 24 should be printed on the screen
4. Now type 4.2, press Enter.
5. 4.2 should be displayed on screen as an output.
6. Now type print(234). Press Enter. 234 will be the output.
7. Type print(45.90) and press Enter. The output will show 45.90 on screen.

Activity 2:
Display strings on screen.
Solution:
1. Python recognized strings through quotes (single, double). Anything inside quotes
is a string for Python interpreter.
2. Type hello, press Enter. An error message will be displayed as Python interpreter
does not understand this as a string.
3. Type ‘hello’ and press Enter. Hello will be displayed.
4. Type ‘Quote me on this!’ and press Enter. Same string will be displayed.
5. Type “What’s your name?” and press Enter. What’s your name? will be printed
on the screen.
6. You can specify multi-line strings using triple quotes – “ “ “ or ‘ ‘ ‘. Type following
text and press Enter
'''This is a multi-line string. This is the first line.
This is the second line.
"What's your name?," I asked.
He said "Bond, James Bond."
'''
Activity 3:
Use Python as a calculator.
Solution:
1. The interpreter acts as a simple calculator: you can type an expression at it and it
will write the value. Expression syntax is straightforward: the operators +
(addition), - (subtraction), * (multiplication) and / (division) work just like in
most other languages.Parentheses (()) can be used for grouping.
2. Type in 2 + 2 and press Enter. Python will output its result i.e. 4.
3. Try following expressions in the shell.
a. 50 – 4
b. 23.5 – 2.0
c. 23 – 18.5
d. 5 * 6
e. 2.5 * 10
f. 2.5 * 2.5
g. 28 / 4 (note: division returns a floating point number)
h. 26 / 4
i. 23.4 / 3.1
Activity 4:
Get an integer answer from division operation. Also get remainder of a division operation
in the output.
Solution:
1. Division (/) always gives a float answer. There are different ways to get a whole
as an answer.
2. Use // operator:
a. Type 28 // 4 and press Enter. The answer is a whole number.
b. Type 26 // 4 and press Enter.
3. Use (int) cast operator: this operator changes the interchangeable types.
a. Type (int)26 / 4 and press Enter. The answer is a whole number.
b. Type (int) 28/4; press Enter.
4. The modulus (or mod) % operator is used to get the remainder as an output
(division / operator returns the quotient).
a. Type 28 % 4. Press Enter. 0 will be the result.
b. Type 26 % 4. Press Enter. 2 will be the result.
Activity 5:
Calculate 43, 410, 429, 4150, 41000
Solution:
1. The multiplication (*) operator can be used for calculating powers of a number.
However, if the power is big, the task will be tedious. For calculating powers of a
number, Python uses ** operator.
2. Type following and obtain the results of above expressions.
a. 4 ** 3
b. 4 ** 10
c. 4 ** 29
d. 4 ** 150
e. 4 ** 1000
Activity 6:
Write following math expressions. Solve them by hand using operators’ precedence.
Calculate their answers using Python. Match the results.

Solution:
The table below shows the operator precedence in Python (from Highest to Lowest).
Operator Operation Example
** Exponent 2 ** 3 = 8
% Modulus/remainder 22 % 8 = 6
// Integer division/floored quotient 22//8 = 2
/ Division 22/8 = 2.75
* Multiplication 3*5 = 15
- Subtraction 5–2=3
+ Addition 2+2=4
Calculate following expressions:
1. 2+3*6
2. (2+3)*6
3. 48565878 * 578453
4. 2 + 2 (note the spaces after +)
5. (5 - 1) * ((7 + 1) / (3 - 1))
6. 5 +
7. 42 + 5 + * 2
Activity 7:
Concatenate two or more strings. Also replicate a string.
Solution:
The meaning of an operator may change based on the data types of the values next to it.
For example, + is the addition operator when it operates on two integers or floating-point
values. However, when + is used on two string values, it joins the strings as the string
concatenation operator.
1. Enter the following into the interactive shell:'Alice' + 'Bob'. The result will be
'AliceBob'
The expression evaluates down to a single, new string value that combines the text of the
two strings. However, if you try to use the + operator on a string and an integer value,
Python will not know how to handle this, and it will display an error message.
2. Type 'Alice' + 42 and press Enter. Following error will be displayed.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#26>", line 1, in <module>
'Alice' + 42
TypeError: Can't convert 'int' object to str implicitly

The * operator is used for multiplication when it operates on two integer or floating-point
values. But when the * operator is used on one string value and one integer value, it
becomes the string replication operator. Enter a string multiplied by a number into the
interactive shell to see this in action.
3. Type 'Alice' * 5 and press Enter. The output will be 'AliceAliceAliceAliceAlice'
The expression evaluates down to a single string value that repeats the original a number
of times equal to the integer value. String replication is a useful trick, but it’s not used as
often as string concatenation.
The * operator can be used with only two numeric values (for multiplication) or one
string value and one integer value (for string replication). Otherwise, Python will just
display an error message.
4. Type 'Alice' * 'Bob'; press Enter. Following error will occur.

'Alice' * 'Bob'
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'str'
5. Type 'Alice' * 5.0; press Enter. Following error will occur.

'Alice' * 5.0
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'
Activity 8:
Use python variables to store values.
Solution:
You’ll store values in variables with an assignment statement. An assignment statement
consists of a variable name, an equal sign (called the assignment operator), and the value
to be stored. If you enter the assignment statement spam = 42, then a variable named
spam will have the integer value 42 stored in it.
Enter the following into the interactive shell.

1. >>>spam = 40
>>>spam
2. >>>eggs = 2
>>> spam + eggs
3. >>> spam + eggs + spam
4. >>> spam = spam + 2
>>> spam
A variable is initialized (or created) the first time a value is stored in it ❶. After that, you
can use it in expressions with other variables and values ❷. When a variable is assigned
a new value ③, the old value is forgotten, which is why spam evaluated to 42 instead of
40 at the end of the example. This is called overwriting the variable. Enter the following
code into the interactive shell to try overwriting a string:
5. >>> spam = 'Hello'
>>> spam
6. >>>spam = ‘Goodbye’
>>>spam
Python allows you to assign a single value to several variables simultaneously.

7. >>> a = b = c = 100
>>>a
>>>b
>>>c
>>>print(a,b,c)
8. >>>a, b, c = 1, 2, “John”
>>>print(a,b,c)
Activity 9:
Try different variable names and check the output.
Solution:
You can name a variable anything as long as it obeys the following three rules:
o It can be only one word.

o It can use only letters, numbers, and the underscore (_) character.
o It can’t begin with a number.
Try following statements in Python:
1. Balance = 3.0
2. Current-balance = 4
3. currentBalance = 1
4. current_balance = 28/2
5. current balance = 128
6. 4account = ‘Ali’
7. _spam = ‘Ali’
8. 42 = ‘amount’
9. SPAM = ‘amount’
10. Total_$um = 2345
11. Account4 = ‘Ali’
12. ‘hello’ = ‘world’

Variable names are case-sensitive, meaning that spam, SPAM, Spam, and sPaM are four
different variables. It is a Python convention to start your variables with a lowercase
letter.
Activity 10:
Write a Python program that uses assignment operators and comments.
Solution:
Type the code given below either in IDLE or as script. Execute it.
#!/usr/bin/python
counter =100# An integer assignment

miles =1000.0# A floating point
name ="John"# A string
print counter
print miles
print name
Activity 11:
Combine numbers and text.
Solution:
Type the following code. Run it.
# Text
x = "Nancy"
print(x)
# Combine numbers and text

s = "My lucky number is %d, what is yours?" % 7
print(s)
# alternative method of combining numbers and text

s = "My lucky number is " + str(7) + ", what is yours?"
print(s)
Activity 12:
Take input from the keyboard and use it in your program.

Solution:
In Python and many other programming languages you can get user input. In Python the
input() function will ask keyboard input from the user.The input function prompts text if
a parameter is given. The function reads input from the keyboard, converts it to a string
and removes the newline (Enter).Type and experiment with the script below.
name = input('What is your name? ')

print('Hello ' + name)
job = input('What is your job? ')

print('Your job is ' + job)
num = input('Give me a number? ')

print('You said: ' + str(num))

Write more complex math expressions. Solve them by hand using operators’ precedence.
Calculate their answers using Python. Match the results.

Activity 3:
Do the following:
>>>width =20
>>>height =5*9
>>>width * height
>>> n
>>>tax =12.5/100
>>>price =100.50
>>>price * tax
>>>price + _
Note: the last printed expression is assigned to variable _.
>>> round(_,2)
Activity 4:
Do the following on strings:
>>>'spam eggs'# single quotes

>>>'doesn\'t'# use \' to escape the single quote...
>>>"doesn't"# ...or use double quotes instead
>>>'"Yes," he said.'
>>>"\"Yes,\" he said."
>>>'"Isn\'t," she said.'
>>>'"Isn\'t," she said.'
>>>print('"Isn\'t," she said.')
>>>s ='First line.\nSecond line.'# \n means newline
>>>s # without print(), \n is included in the output
>>>print(s) # with print(), \n produces a new line
>>>print('C:\some\name') # here \n means newline!
>>>print(r'C:\some\name') # note the r before the quote
>>>print("""\

>>>prefix 'thon'# can't concatenate a variable and a string
literal
>>>('un'*3) 'ium'
>>>prefix +'thon'
>>>text = ('Put several strings within parentheses '
... 'to have them joined together.')

Activity 5:
Type the program below and start it.
#!/usr/bin/python
x = 3 # a whole number
f = 3.1415926 # a floating point number
name = "Python" # a string
print(x)
print(f)
print(name)
combination = name + " " + name

print(combination)

LAB # 05
Statement Purpose:
This lab will give you practical implementation of different types of Conditional Statements (if-
else).
Activity Outcomes:
This lab teaches you the following topics:
• Use of indentation
• Use of simple if statement
• Use of if-else statement
• Use of nested-if statement
Instructor Note:
As pre-lab activity, read Chapter 12 from the book (Learning Python, Mark Lutz, 5th Edition (2013),
O'Reilly Media), and also as given by your theory instructor.

13) Stage J (Journey)
Introduction:
‘if’ statement is used to perform logical operation. In order to perform decision making, we need
to check certain condition(s) before processing. Python supports if statement for doing so. There
are various formats of if statement including if-else and if-elif.
The basic and shortest form of if statement is as below:
if condition:
statement1
statement2
…
…
If the condition is true then the specified block will be executed. It is important to note that the
block is specified by the use of indentation. Python does not use a pair of curly bracket { } to
specify the block.
We can also write the else block associated with the if statement as below.
if condition:
statement1
statement2
…
…
else:
statement3
statement4
…
…
If we are required to test a number of conditions and want to execute one of the many blocks of
statements, then we can use if-elif-else statement as below.
if condition1
statement1
statement2
…
…
elif condition2:
Statement3
Statement4
…
…
elif condition3:
Statement5
Statement6
…
…
else:
Statement7
Statement8
Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Let us take an integer from user as input and check whether the given value is even or
not.
Solution:
A. Create a new Python file from Python Shell and type the following code.
B. Run the code by pressing F5.
You will get the following output.
Activity 2:
Let us modify the code to take an integer from user as input and check whether the given
value is even or odd. If the given value is not even then it means that it will be odd. So
here we need to use if-else statement an demonstrated below.
Solution:

Activity 3:
Let us accept two integer values from user and compare which one is the larger value. If
both are equal values then we should display that both are equal values. In this activity
you will use if-elif-else structure of if statement. This is used when we need to check
more than one conditions to perform certain action.
Solution:
Activity 4:
Let us modify the above code in order to apply nested if structure. Sometimes we need
to use an if statement within the block of another if to find the solution of the problem.
The following code example illustrates that how nested if can be used in Python.
Solution:

Assignment:
For this student will submit Lab Assignment before the deadline.

LAB # 06
Statement Purpose:
This lab will give you practical implementation of different types of loops including for loop,
while loop and nested loops.
Activity Outcomes:
• while loop
• for loop
• Use of break statement
• Nested loops
Instructor Note:
As pre-lab activity, read Chapter 13 from the book (Learning Python, Mark Lutz, 5th Edition
(2013), O'Reilly Media), and also as given by your theory instructor.

Introduction:
Loops are one of the basic structures of a programming language. Loops are performed
to repeat a step or steps for a certain number of times. Python offers two looping
statements called while and for. Both have their own uses and advantages.
This lab session covers both of the loop structures.
while loop
The commonly used syntax of while loop is as below.
while condition:
statement1
statement2
statement3
…
The statements written after the while statements (indented block) are repeated as long
as the condition is true. The control will transfer to the statement written outside the
indented block when the condition becomes false. We can also break the continuation of
the loop by writing break statement within indented block as below.
while condition1:
statement1
statement2
if condition2:
break
statement3
…
In the above case, the while loop will be stopped if the result of condition2 is true.
While loop can also have an optional else part and is executed if break statement was
not executed. The syntax of while loop having else block is as below.
while condition:
statement1
statement2
statement3
…
else:
statement1
statement2
statement3
…

for loop
for loop can be used in a number of ways. One of its syntax is as below.
for var in range(value1,value2,value3):

statement1
statement2
statement3
…
Where …
value1 refers to the initial value of the range. It will be considered 0 if not
mentioned.
Value2 refers to the final value of the range. It will be required to perform the loop.
Value3 refers to the step value. It will be added (incremented) every time the loop
is repeated. It will considered 1 if skipped.
for loop has an optional else part as well. It works exactly as in while loop. It is
executed only if break statement is not executed. The syntax becomes as below.
for var in range(value1,value2,value3):

statement1
statement2
statement3
…
else:
statement1
statement2
statement3
…
There is also use of for loop to be used with lists. It will be covered in the next lab session.

Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Calculate the sum of all the values between 0-10 using for loop.

Activity 3:
Write a program that takes a number from user and calculate the factorial of that number.
Activity 4:
Fibonacci series is that when you add the previous two numbers the next number is
formed. You have to start from 0 and 1.
E.g. 0+1=1 → 1+1=2 → 1+2=3 → 2+3=5 → 3+5=8 → 5+8=13
So the series becomes

0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 ……………………………………
Steps: You have to take an input number that shows how many terms to be displayed.
Then use loops for displaying the Fibonacci series up to that term e.g. input no is =6 the
output should be
011235

LAB # 07
Statement Purpose:
This lab will give you practical implementation of different types of sequences including
Lists and Tuples. Lists are the most commonly used data structure in Python. Tuples are also
very useful and widely used by Python programmers.
Activity Outcomes:
• How to use lists

• How to use tuples
Instructor Note:
As pre-lab activity, read Chapter 8 from the book (Learning Python, Mark Lutz, 5th Edition
(2013), O'Reilly Media), and also as given by your theory instructor.

Introduction:
Python provides different types of data structures as sequences. In a sequence, there are
more than one values and each value has its own index. The first value will have an index
0, the second value will have index 1 and so on. These indices are used to access a
particular value in the sequence.
Python offers different types of sequences but we will discuss two of them, lists and
tuples.
Lists
Lists are the most important type of sequence being used in Python. It is a collection of
same or different type of objects. These objects are separated by commas to distinguish
from each other enclosed in square brackets. The following activities show that how lists
are used in Python.
Tuples
Tuples are almost same as Lists but the main difference them is that objects defined in
tuples cannot be changed while they can be changed in lists. A minor difference is that
lists are enclosed in square brackets while tuples are enclosed parenthesis (round
brackets). The following activities show that how tuples are used in Python.

Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Accept 5 values from user and store them in a list. Display all the values (objects) of the
list.
Solution:
E. Create a new Python file from Python Shell and type the following code.
F. Run the code by pressing F5.
Activity 2:
Repeat the above code by accepting 5 integer values from user. Store these values in a list
and display the sum of given values.
Solution:

Activity 3:
Accept 5 integer values from user. Store these values in a list and display the list in
ascending order.
Solution:

Activity 4:
Accept two lists from user and display their join.
Solution:
Activity 5:
Write a Python code to accept a list from user and find a required element in it.
Solution:

If we run the program again and enter 55 to find in the list then the output will be as
below.
Activity 6:
Write a Python code to accept a tuple from user and display the maximum and minimum
value of the tuple.
Solution:


Home Activities:
Activity 1:
Create two lists based on the user values. Merge both the lists and display in sorted order.
Activity 2:
Repeat the above activity to find the smallest and largest element of the list. (Suppose all
the elements are integer values)
Activity 3:
Repeat the above activity to find the index of the smallest and largest element of the list.
(Suppose all the elements are integer values)
Activity 4:
Accept a list of 10 integer values from user and display the list in descending order.

LAB # 08
Statement Purpose:
This lab will give you practical implementation of different types of user-defined functions.
Activity Outcomes:
• How to define own functions

• How to use user-defined functions
• Passing different types of arguments
Instructor Note:
As pre-lab activity, read Chapters 16,17,18 from the book (Learning Python, Mark Lutz, 5th
Edition (2013), O'Reilly Media), and also as given by your theory instructor.

Introduction:
It is usually a better approach to divide a large code in small functions. A function is a

small piece of code used to perform a specific purpose. Functions are defined first then
called whenever needed. A program may have as many functions as required. Similarly a
function may be called as many times as required.
How to Define Functions

Functions are defined as below.
def function_name(list_of_parameters):
statement1
statement2
statement3
…
return value
The list of parameters is optional if a function is not accepting any value but is usually
required while defining a function. Similarly, return statement is optional but is required
if a function returns a value.
How to Call A Function
Once a function is defined then it can be called by using its name and providing values to
the parameters. Calling a function in Python is same as in other programming languages.
The following activities demonstrate that how functions are defined and called in Python.

Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Define a function to accept an integer value and return its factorial.
Solution:
G. Create a new Python file from Python Shell and type the following code.
H. Run the code by pressing F5.
Activity 2:
Write a function to accept 2 integer values from user and return their sum.
Solution:

Activity 3:
Define a function to accept an integer value from user and check that whether the given
value is prime number or not. If the given value is a prime number then it will return true
otherwise false.
Solution:
Activity 4:
Define a function to accept a list of integer values and return the sum of it.
Solution:

Activity 5:
Write a Python code to accept a list of integers and sort it in descending order.
Solution:

Home Activities:
Activity 1:
Write a function to accept an integer ‘n’ and display ‘n’ elements of Fibonacci series.
Activity 2:
Write a function to accept two lists of integer values and return the largest value.
Activity 3:
Write a function to accept two integer values and swap them with each other.

29) StageJ(Journey)
Introduction
Tables are essential objects in a database because they hold all of the relevant
data. For example, a database for a Medical Store can have a table that stores
the names of their suppliers, e-mails, addresses, telephone numbers, etc. This
lab provides an overview of tables in MS Access. Before you create tables,
consider your requirements and determine all the tables that you might need.
• A database file in Access has *.accdb extension.

• An Access desktop database (.accdb) is a fully functional RDBMS.
• It provides all the data definition, data manipulation, and data control
features that you need to manage large volumes of data.
• You can use an Access desktop database (.accdb) either as a standalone
Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) on a single
workstation or in a shared client/server mode across a network.
• A desktop database can also act as the data source for data displayed on
webpages on your company intranet.
• When you build an application with an Access desktop database, Access
is the RDBMS.

Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
MS Access Sample Database
Solution:
1. Create a database from a template.
a. Click Options on File tab.

b. Set Default database folder under Creating databases to a desired
location & click the OK button.

Templates.
d. Under Available Templates, click the Students template.
e. Name your database lab1 in the File Name box on the right side of page,
and click Create.

2. Create database objects.
a. Press F11 to open the Navigation Pane. Click the downward-pointing

triangle in a circle at the top of that pane. (Note: F11 doesn't work with
Access in the virtual machine. If the navigation pane isn't already open,
you can click the sideway arrows to open the pane.)
b. In the list that opens, click Object Type. There are the objects created for
you in this pre-built database.
c. On the Ribbon, click the Create tab.
d. In the Tables group, click Table.
e. In the rightmost column, click the down-arrow next to Click to Add.

Make a databaseof your class consisting of as much files as number of students in the
class. Each file should contain three records: a student’s medical record, personal record
and academic record. All of the record should have the required filed.

LAB # 10
Statement Purpose:
• It is arguably the most user-friendly version of Linux out there. Ubuntu's whole
philosophy is based around making is easier for the user - hiding any
unnecessary complexity behind the scenes
• It has a huge repository of (free) software available - by far the most of any Linux
distribution (distro).
• It has a huge installed base: it's the most popular distro, so there are plenty of
people and websites out there supporting it
• It's backed by Canonical, which means that they have the resources to put out
six-monthly releases plus bug-fixes
Activity Outcomes:
Bash is the language that you will learn to love as much of everyday Ubuntu life is done/can
be done using the Terminal. You will soon learn that most things can be done through both
GUI (Graphical User Interface) and CLI (Command Line Interface), however some things are
more easily achieved from one or the other. For example, changing file permissions of a
folder and all its sub folders is more easily achieved using CLI instead GUI.
Instructor Note:
As pre-lab activity, read Chapter 3 from the book (Linux unleashed third edition by Tim
Parker)

1) StageJ(Journey)
Introduction
Ubuntu is an operating system that is developed by a worldwide community of
programmers as well as by employees of Ubuntu's commercial sponsor, Canonical.
Ubuntu is based on the concept of free or open-source software, meaning that you do not
pay any licensing fees for Ubuntu, and you can download, use, and share the operating
system free of charge.
Ubuntu is "free software" — a term which is often misunderstood to mean only free of
cost. While Ubuntu is free of cost, the term "free software" more accurately refers to the
freedom to run the program for any purpose, to study how the program works and modify
it to your needs, to redistribute copies, and to improve the program and release your
improvements to the public.
Being a Linux-based operating system, Ubuntu has a well-deserved reputation for

stability and security. Historically, Linux has proven itself to be a workhorse server
operating system, and this is where, up until now, it has been most widely used and best
known.
Security updates and bug fixes for applications and the operating system are managed by
Ubuntu, and users are notified about these updates through an icon in the taskbar, which
they can click on to install.
2) Stage a1 (apply)
Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Install and configure Ubuntu
Activity 2:
There are many bash command to learn. The following is an abbreviated list of the most
useful ones. To access bash, click on the search icon (a stylized Ubuntu logo) at the top of
the launcher and then type ‘terminal’ in the search bar. You may wish to add the terminal
to the launcher since you will be using it a lot

Solution:
apropos == find a command apropos of
apt-get == install and manage software
cd == change directory
chmod == change file mode
chown == change file ownership
cp == copy a file
file == determine file type
find == find a file’s location (by name)
gzip == compress or expand files
less == read a file one screen at a time
ls == list directory contents
make == build an application using a MakeFile
man == read the manual for a command
mkdir == make a directory
mv == move a file
pwd == print working directory
rm == remove a file
sftp == secure file transfer protocol (connect to another computer)
ssh == secure shell hyper–terminal (connect to another computer)
sudo == use a pseudonym when executing a command
tar == tape archiver (the tape drive is optional)
wget == web getter

3) Stage v (verify)
Home Activities:
Activity 1:
1. Where is the bash program located on your system?
2. Use the --version option to find out which version you are running.
3. Which shell configuration files are read when you login to your system using the
graphical user interface and then opening a terminal window?
4. Are the following shells interactive shells? Are they login shells?
A shell opened by clicking on the background of your graphical desktop, selecting

"Terminal" or such from a menu.
4) A shell that you get after issuing the command ssh localhost.
5) A shell that you get when logging in to the console in text mode.
6) A shell obtained by the command xterm&.
7) A shell opened by the mysystem.sh script. A shell that you get on a remote host,
for which you didn't have to give the login and/or password because you use SSH
and maybe SSH keys.
8) Can you explain why bash does not exist when you type Ctrl+C on the command
line?
9) Display directory stack content.
10)If it is not yet the case, set your prompt so that it displays your location in the file
system hierarchy, for instance add this line to ~/.bashrc: export PS1="\u@\h \w>
"
11)Display hashed commands for your current shell session.
12)How many processes are currently running on your system? Use ps and wc, the
first line of output of ps is not a process!
13)How to display the system hostname? Only the name, nothing more!
Assignment:
1. Write a script using your favorite editor. The script should display the
path to your homedirectory and the terminal type that you are using.
Additionally it shows all the services started up in runlevel 3 on your
system. (hint: use HOME, TERM and ls /etc/rc3.d/S*)
2. Add comments in your script.

3. Add information for the users of your script.
4. Change permissions on your script so that you can run it.
5. Run the script in normal mode and in debug mode. It should run without
errors.
6. Make errors in your script: see what happens if you misspell commands, if
you leave out the first line or put something unintelligible there, or if you
misspell shell variable names or write them in lower case characters after
they have been declared in capitals. Check what the debug comments say
about this.

LAB # 11
Statement Purpose:
In this lab you learn how to connect two/multiple PCs to create a Peer-to-Peer/simple
LAN or workgroup. You will share a folder on one workstation and share that folder
from the other workstation.
Activity Outcomes:
• Create a simple LAN with two PCs using a single crossover cable to connect the
workstations.
• Create a simple LAN with multiple PCs using an Ethernet switch and a straight-
through cable to connect each workstation.
• Map a logical Drive and use Universal Naming Convention (UNC) to share available
resources.
• Use the Control Panel / Network utility to verify and configure the network settings.
• Use the ICMP Ping command to verify the TCP/IP connection between the two
workstations.
• Use the IPCONFIG.EXE utility to verify some of the IP configuration settings
Instructor Note:
As pre-lab activity, read Chapter 7 from the book (Introduction to computers by Peter
Norton)

1) StageJ(Journey)
Introduction
In this laboratory exercise, you will build an Ethernet LAN and connect your LAN to the
Internet. You will also configure your computer to obtain an IP address automatically
using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Once the stations obtain IP
addresses, they will be able to communicate with each other and the Internet. You will
use the Window’s ping and tracert utilities to test connectivity, and the arp program to
view the hosts ARP table.
2) Stage a1 (apply)
Lab Activities:
Activity 1:
Two PCs (or workstations) will be connected directly to each other from one Network
Interface card (NIC) to the other NIC using a crossover cable. This can be useful to allow
you to create a minilab for testing purposes without the need for a hub. Since the NICs on
the workstations are directly connected you will not be able to connect any additional
workstations.
Activity 2:
All PCs on the same row will be connected with a switch. Using a switch allows for more
than just two workstations to be connected. Switches can have anywhere from four to
twenty four ports.
Solution:
The following resources will be required:
✓ Two workstations with a NIC in each (Make sure that you boot up with the
Windows 8
✓ Exercise A - One CAT 5 Crossover cable to connect two workstations without
a hub.
✓ Exercise B - An Ethernet switch (12 or 24 port) and a CAT 5 straight through
cable for each work station.

NOTE:
Steps 1 (physical LAN connections) will be different between exercises A and B. The
steps from 2 on should be the same.
Step 1 - Check Local Area Network (LAN) Connections
Verify that you are using the right type of cable.
Exercise A - A single CAT 5 crossover cable is used to connect two workstations

together. Refer to figure 1
Exercise B - Each work station will connect to the switch using a straight through cable.
Refer to figure 1
Cross
Over
Straight Through Cable. This cable will connect This crossover cable will connect
PC1's lowest-numbered NIC to the switch PC2's lowest-numbered NIC to
PC4's lowest-numbered NIC
(Figure 1)
Step 2 – Identifying NICs and Windows Networking Options
Go to Control Panel, Network and dialup connections. You should be able to see three
icons:

1. Highest-Numbered NICwhich is used to connect your PC to the college
network. This NIC is enabled by default; however, you have to disable it before
you do any labs. Right-click on it and choose disable from the short cut menu.
Now you are disconnected from the college network (you can’t browse the web
and you can’t print)
2. The Lowest-Numbered NIC which is used to connect you to the Cisco lab. This
NIC is disabled by default and has to be enabled when you do the labs. Right-
click on it and enable it. Notice that you might get the IP address conflict
message. If so, just click OK out of it as this problem will be fixed in Step
4.
3. The third NIC will not be used.
Right click on the lowest-numbered NIC and choose properties from the shortcut menu.
Check to be sure that you have the following networking Components installed:
• Client for Microsoft Networks.

• The NIC adapter (small NIC icon).
• The TCP/IP Protocol (small network cable connection icon).
• File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft
Step 3 - Change the NetBIOS Name
Right-click my computer icon and choose properties. Select the network identification
tab. Click the properties button. In the computer name textbox, change the name to
Station# (where # could be anything from 1-24 depending on the location of the
PC).Leave the default workgroup name as WORKGROUP.
Step 4 - TCP/IP Protocol Settings
For this lab, use the Class C network address of 200.150.100.0 andset the value of the last
octet to equal that of the PC #. Set the default subnet mask on each workstation
to255.255.255.0.Make sure that you are configuring the lowest-numbered NIC
Step 5 - Check the TCP/IP Settings with the Ipconfig /all Utility
Click on Start, Programs and then select the MS-DOS Prompt.Enter the
ipconfig /all command to see all TCP/IP related settings for your workstation.
Fill in the blanks below using the results of the IPCONFIG command from your
workstation:
1. Host name___________________
2. MAC Address________________
3. IP address____________________
4. Subnet Mask_________________
Step 6 - Check the network connection with the Ping Utility
Click on Start, Programs and then the MS-DOS Prompt. Enter the Ping commandfollowed
by the IP address of the other workstation
(Example - ping 200.150.100.1).
Explanation: This will verify that you have a good OSI Layers 1 through 3 connection.
Was the Ping successful? ______________________
Step 7 - Creating and Sharing File Folders
Right-click on my computer icon and choose explore from the short-cut menu.
• Select local disk (C:)

• From the file menu select new then folder. When the new folder Is created,
name it using your first initial and your last name.
• Right-click on the folder and select share
• Select the share this folder option button
• Click on the Permissions button and change Everyone’s permission to read
only.
Open notepad and create a new file. Name the file using your NetBIOS name_Test. Save
the file in the shared folder.
Step 8 - Finding Other Computers and Sharing Resources on a Peer-To-Peer

Network
Sharing Resources by using Universal Naming Convention (UNC):
o From Start select Run
o In the provided textbox type the path to the shared resources that you
want to access on your neighbor’s machine, using the following format :
o \\NetBIOS name\folder name\file name
Sharing resources through mapping logical network drives:
o Right-click my computer icon, then select map a network drive
o Select P as the drive letter, then click on the browse button
o Double-click on the VMWARE workgroup to collapse it

o Select your neighbor’s station then select the shared folder. Click OK, then
Finish
o Double-click on my computer icon to make sure that the logical drive has
been created
o If the need for connection to your neighbor’s PC seizes to exist, then you
could disconnect the logical drive by right-clicking on the logical drive icon
from my computer window, then selecting disconnect.
Searching for computers on the network:
o Right-click on my network places, then select search for computers
o In the computer’s name text box type the name of your neighbor’s
computer that you are trying to find
