Part 1: Python Review
The problem below is taken from CSC111, Homework 10 given Spring 2014. Work out a solution in pair or individually. There is nothing to submit for this part.
Lost Cat
(image from nicepixy.net)
The program below is missing its class! And it is also missing its documentation! It used to contain a class defined, with methods and member variables, and a fully developed documentation, but unfortunately all of them got erased.
We do have the output of a run of the program, though, when it still had its class definition. Both the incomplete code and the output are shown below.
#
# missing class goes here...

def getNewCat():
print( "\nPlease enter the information for the new cat:")
name = input( "Cat name? " )
age = int( input( "Age, in years? " ) )
vac = input( "Vaccinated (Y/N)? " ).strip().lower()
vac = vac in ['y', 'yes']
neut = input( "Neutered (Y/N)? " ).strip().lower()
neut = neut in ['y', 'yes' ]
breed= input( "Breed? " ).strip()
return Cat( name, age, vac, neut, breed )
def display( L, caption ):
print( "\n\n"+caption )
print( "=" * len( caption ) )
for cat in L:
print( cat )
def main():
text="""Minou, 3, Yes, Yes, stray
Max, 1, Yes, No, Burmese
Gizmo, 2, No, No, Bengal
Garfield, 4, Yes, Yes, Orange Tabby"""
for line in text.split( "\n" ):
words = line.strip().split( "," )
if len( words ) != 5:
continue
name, age, vaccinated, neutered, breed = words
age = int( age.strip() )
if vaccinated.strip().lower() == "yes":
vaccinated = True
else:
vaccinated = False
neutered = neutered.strip().lower() == "yes"
cat = Cat( name.strip(), age, vaccinated, neutered, breed.strip() )
try:
cats.append( cat )
except NameError:
cats = []
cats.append( cat )

cats.append( getNewCat() )

Output
List of cats:
=============
Cat: Minou, age: 3, vaccinated, neutered (stray)
Cat: Max, age: 1, vaccinated, not neutered (Burmese)
Cat: Gizmo, age: 2, not vaccinated, not neutered (Bengal)
Cat: Garfield, age: 4, vaccinated, neutered (Orange Tabby)
Please enter the information for the new cat:
Cat name? Ralph
Age, in years? 4
Vaccinated (Y/N)? y
Neutered (Y/N)? y
Breed? Angora
List of cats with new addition:
===============================
Cat: Minou, age: 3, vaccinated, neutered (stray)
Cat: Max, age: 1, vaccinated, not neutered (Burmese)
Cat: Gizmo, age: 2, not vaccinated, not neutered (Bengal)
Cat: Garfield, age: 4, vaccinated, neutered (Orange Tabby)
Cat: Ralph, age: 4, vaccinated, neutered (Angora)
Vaccinated and neutered cats:
=============================
Cat: Minou, age: 3, vaccinated, neutered (stray)
Cat: Garfield, age: 4, vaccinated, neutered (Orange Tabby)
Cat: Ralph, age: 4, vaccinated, neutered (Angora)
- Question
Recreate the original program with its Cat class. Make sure that it will generate the same output shown above if fed the same cat information.
