Chapter 7, Problem 1AW
Program Plan Intro
List creation:
- • In Python, a “list” is an object that has multiple data elements.
- • Every data element that is stored in a given list is known as “element”.
- • To create a list, the elements are enclosed in a square bracket and separated by commas; then, this list of elements is assigned to a variable.
Algorithm to create a list of strings is as follows:
- • To create a list of given strings, the given strings are enclosed in a square bracket and separated by commas.
- • Create a new variable and name it as “l1” for referencing the list of strings.
- • The comma-separated strings inside square bracket are assigned to the variable “l1”.

Write a statement that will print the first letter of each element of the following list: list1 = [‘Galileo’,‘Oliver’,’Ostwald’,’Descartes’].
Write a statement that creates a two-dimensional list with 5 rows and 3 columns. Then writenested loops that get an integer value from the user for each element in the list.
Write a procedure called check_workday(check_day). The procedure should accept a single word as a parameter.
You have been given a list called work_days. The list contains a couple of days that are defined as workdays for this problem.
You are required to:
check to see if the day passed to the procedure is a workday. If it is a workday print The name of the day, with the following statement on the same line: " is a workday" (see the example outputs)
When the day is a Sunday, display the following statement on the next line: "The fee is double because it is Sunday."
NB: Only write the procedure. Do not call it. Please refer to the examples below for further clarity.
For example:
Test
Result
check_workday("Monday")
Monday is a workday
check_workday("Sunday")
Sunday is a workday The fee is double because it is Sunday.
check_workday("Thursday")
Thursday is a workday

If entered correctly, the function generates a list containing n random values that do not overlap between 1 and 5000 and the function returns the newly created list. Conversely, if entered incorrectly, the program will ask to re-enter until it is correct. Cases where n is considered incorrect:(i)- If the user enters a non-integer data type (like string, float, bool, ...)The program will display the error message 'Must enter a positive integer. Requires re-entry'.(ii)- If the input value is of the correct integer data type but the value is not in the range10 to 1000, the program gives the error 'Only values between 10 and 1000.
