Not Submitted UNIT 4 - TOUCHSTONE 4: Python Journal Project Submitted Graded When you're ready to upload your document, click here. SCORE -/100 Currently, it takes about 3-7 business days for a Touchstone to be graded. SUBMIT TOUCHSTONE Python Journal Template X Touchstones are projects that illustrate your comprehension of the course material, help you refine skills, and demonstrate application of knowledge. You can work on a Touchstone anytime, but you must pass this unit's assessments before you submit it. Once you've submitted a Touchstone, it will be graded and counted toward your final course score. Touchstone 4: Python Journal Project ASSIGNMENT: For this project, you will learn how to effectively plan, design, develop, and test an original program of your choosing. This program is your choice and it can be as complex as you wish. The goal is to start with an idea for your program and then step through the process of most phases of the development lifecycle to turn your idea into an actual program. This includes planning out the algorithm using pseudocode, coding your program using everything you learned from Units 1-3, and finally testing and debugging your program to make sure it fulfills your intended purpose. Being able to create your own program can be beneficial in any career field. Anything that can be programmed or automated in any industry could make your work a lot easier. Even as a hobby, it can give you a reference point to have a better understanding of how to deal with common issues. Using basic Python to automate menial tasks can save you time and money! Whether you were in this class to learn programming at a professional level or if it's just for fun, you will benefit from learning coding as a foundation of your technical skills. For this Touchstone, you will fill out a journal (template link below) which has five sections that correspond to the five steps you will complete for your final project. Use this template to write your journal responses for each section of the project. When you have finished, you will submit this journal as a Word .doc/docx. The following Example Python Journal Submission will be helpful to you as you work on this PART 6: Your Completed Program (20 points) Provide the Replit link to your full program code. Advanced (100%) The program works as expected. No errors present. Any required user input executed correctly. Output was as expected. C. Requirements Sophia. Proficient (85%) Performance level not used. The following requirements must be met for your submission: Acceptable (75%) About Contact Us Privacy Policy Terms of Use Performance level not used. Use a readable 11- or 12-point font. All writing must be appropriate for an academic context. Follow academic writing conventions (correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and formatting). Journal entries must be original and written for this assignment; plagiarism of any kind is strictly prohibited. Submission must include your name and the date (included in the template). Include all of the journal parts in a single file. Acceptable file formats include .doc and .docx. Include your Replit Share link at the appropriate location in the journal template.

Program did not wor as expected howeve detailed comments were given to why th student felt it did not run including testing efforts. State the problem you are planning to solve. PART 2: Working Through Specific Examples (16 points) Write down clear and specific steps to solve a simple version of the problem you identified in Part 1. PART 3: Generalizing Into Pseudocode (16 points) Write out the general sequence your program will use in pseudocode, including all specific examples you provided in Part 2. PART 4: Testing Your Program (16 points) While writing and testing your program code, describe your tests, record any errors, and state your approach to fixing the errors. PART 5: Commenting Your Program (16 points) Submit your full program code, including thorough comments describing what each portion of the program should do when working correctly. Advanced (100%) they are trying to solve, including what the program is expected to do to solve the problem and any necessary inputs and outputs required for the program. The steps to solve the problem are in English and easily understood and appear in logical order. The journal entry fully satisfies the requirements. The pseudocode submitted encapsulates the full functionality of the program and includes common program elements. The pseudocode is clearly laid out and readable to a person that does not know Python. Entry consists of a thorough explanation of the testing utilized and why, recording the error(s) found, and the approach to fixing the error(s) for each of the test cases. The provided code in the journal entry includes comments that thoroughly describe the program flow to a degree that a non- programming individual can easily follow the steps and conclude the outcome of the program. Proficient (85%) they are trying to solve, including answers to most of the required questions. The steps to solve the problem are in English and easily understood, appear in logical order, however some minor steps may be missing. The journal entry mostly satisfies the requirements.
