Problem 1

• Write a python program called hw1a.py that uses a list of names, defined as follows:

  dwarfNames = [ "Sleepy", "Sneezy", "Bashful", "Happy", "Grumpy", "Dopey", "Doc" ]

and prints them with boxes around them. This time the boxes are all 20 characters in length. The length of the box is fixed.

+------------------+
| Sleepy           |
+------------------+

+------------------+
| Sneezy           |
+------------------+

etc...

• Note that there is one blank line printed between each box.
• Create a program that uses a main function, as we did in class on Tuesday.
• When you are done, transfer your program to your Linux 111a-xx account, and submit it as follows (more info on how to do that in class on Thursday 9/15).

 submit hw1 hw1a.py

Problem #2

• Same problem as Problem #1, but this time the list is slightly different. Some names have a space at the end, some not. The reason is that I want all names to contain an even number of characters.

  dwarfNames = [ "Sleepy", "Sneezy", "Bashful ", "Happy ", "Grumpy", "Dopey ", "Doc " ]

• Your assignment is to write a program called hw1b.py that displays the list of names centered in a box that has long sides 20 characters in length.

+------------------+
|      Sleepy      |
+------------------+

+------------------+
|      Sneezy      |
+------------------+

etc...

• When you are done, transfer your program to your Linux 111a-xx account, and submit it as follows:

 submit hw1 hw1b.py

Problem #3

• Create a program called hw1c.py that uses the same list as in Problem #2 and that outputs the names in this fashion:

+------------------+
|Sleepy            |
|Sneezy            |
|Bashful           |
|Happy             |
|Grumpy            |
|Dopey             |
|Doc               |
+------------------+ 

Note that there are now only two lines of dashes, and all the names fit inside the box.

• Submit your program as follows:

   submit hw1 hw1c.py

Problem #4

• Create a program called hw1d.py that uses the same list as in Problem #2 and that outputs the names in this fashion:

+------------------+ | Sleepy| | Sneezy| | Bashful| | Happy| | Grumpy| | Dopey| | Doc| +------------------+

Note that there are now only two lines of dashes, and all the names fit inside the box.

• Submit your program as follows:

   submit hw1 hw1d.py
