When a mini-project tells you something like "pick a hobby or sport," the point is to (1) allow you to program something that is at least somewhat of interest to you, (2) to give you practice in solving an ill-defined problem, and (3) to make sure that everyone is not submitting the same program all the time. So, it doesn't much matter what the subject/topic/hobby/sport is, as long as it's not a copy of someone else's. Note that multiple submissions about (for example) football would be fine, but  given the open-ended nature of the assignment, they should not be copies of each other.

NOTE: What does "Three screen shots of your program working with three different sets of inputs" mean?

That statement means-

1. You have to write code as instructed (in IDLE)

2. Run the code three times, using different inputs each time.

3. For all the three runs (with different inputs), capture screenshots and upload.

******************************************************************************

Select a hobby or sport. make program that asks the user for 4-6 items of information and produces at least one relevant calculation. Include a beginning message and an ending message. For example, if you like cycling:

Welcome to my cycling app!
What is your full name? Steven Shaffer
Please list the distance from your most recent 3 rides (in miles):
Ride 1? 30
Ride 2? 27
Ride 3? 38
Congratulations, Steven Shaffer, your average distance was 31.67 miles.

The bold type indicates user input.

Don't just mimic this program! Do something creative, based on something you're interested in.

What to submit:

• Your Python program (a .py file)
• Three screen shots of your program working with three different sets of inputs.

NOTE: If Canvas doesn't let you submit the Python program with a ".py" extension, rename it with a ".txt" extension and submit it that way.
