🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10, 3.11, or 3.12
• Git (for cloning the repository)
• pip (Python package manager)

Encoding Note

This repository uses UTF-8 for documentation, issue templates, and project metadata. If emoji or box-drawing characters appear as mojibake in a Windows terminal, switch the terminal to UTF-8 before viewing or running the files.

Installation Steps

1. Clone the Repository

📋 Copy

git clone https://github.com/steam-bell-92/python-mini-project.git
cd python-mini-project

2. Create a Virtual Environment

For Linux/macOS:

📋 Copy

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

For Windows (Command Prompt):

python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate

For Windows (PowerShell):

python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

3. Install Dependencies

📋 Copy

pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

The dependency set is tested on Python 3.10 through 3.12. Newer Python releases may not have compatible wheels for every pinned dependency yet.

Running Command-Line Projects

Each Python project in games/, math/, and utilities/ folders can be run independently.

Example: Running a Game

cd games/Snake-Game
python Snake-Game.py

Example: Running a Math Project

cd math/Fibonacci-Series
python Fibonacci-Series.py

Example: Running a Utility

cd utilities/Text-to-Morse
python Text-to-Morse.py

Running the Web App

The web application provides a browser-based interface for all projects.

Prerequisites for Web App

The web app requires Node.js and npm:

• Download from https://nodejs.org/ (v16 or higher recommended)
• Verify installation: node --version && npm --version

Steps to Run Web App

📋 Copy

cd web-app
npm install
npm start

The app will open at http://localhost:3000 (or your configured port).

Running Tests

To verify that the projects work correctly, run the test suite:

📋 Copy

pytest tests/ -v

For specific test file:

pytest tests/test_smoke.py -v

Development Workflow

Creating a New Project

1. Choose appropriate directory: games/, math/, or utilities/
2. Create a new folder with your project name (use PascalCase)
3. Add your .py file with the same name as the folder
4. Include a README.md in your project folder with usage instructions
5. Add tests in tests/ directory with prefix test_

Code Guidelines

• Follow PEP 8 style guide
• Write docstrings for functions and classes
• Add unit tests for your code
• Test your project before submitting a PR

Virtual Environment Reminder

Always activate your virtual environment before working:

# Linux/macOS
source venv/bin/activate

# Windows
venv\Scripts\activate

Deactivate when done:

deactivate
