For the last two weeks I have been focusing on practice projects. I had been spending most of my time in online coding courses, but I noticed that I was forgetting what I learned because I didn’t practice.
I have recently completed several practice projects, encompassing Python, JavaScript and SQL. I am summarizing the projects below, and including a link to their Github repositories:
Quiz App
Console app that prompts the user for answers to different questions. It tallies the total correct answers vs. total answers submitted, and displays the final score once the quiz is over. It is implemented with Python object oriented programming. Github Repository
Probability Calculator
Object oriented programming project implemented in Python. It assumes a container with a variable number of different color balls. The program calculates the probability that a set of balls, for example red: 2, blue:5 will be extracted from the total pool of balls after a random number of draws.
Github Repository
RGB to Hex Converter
Web app that displays the hex value for a provided RGB value. For example, a RGB value of RGB(234,58,100) will give you a hex value of #EA3A64.
The app is developed in JavaScript, using different DOM manipulation and event listening functions.

Web Scraping for Database Analysis
Console app that uses Python’s web scraping package BeautifulSoup to extract information from a soccer database site, and then cleans and formats the data so that in can be imported into a SQLite database where we can perform analysis by running different queries. It uses Python regular expressions and string manipulation functions to clean up the data.
Github Repository
Web App with Bottle and SQLite
Web app that combines Python-based web framework Bottle with SQLite. The app lets users register for a party, submitting their name, how many people will come with them, and what they will bring. The HTML form includes a text field, a drop-down menu and radio buttons. The app connects to SQLite so that we can update and retrieve information from the database. Github Repository | Live Demo
