Program Plan Intro

Decision structure:

Sequence structure cannot handle all types of tasks. These can be achieved using the decision structure. Example: “if” statement.

“if” statement:

The “if” statement is used to create a decision structure; it allows more than one execution path for program. If Boolean expression is true, the “if” statement causes one or more statements to be executed.

Indentation in the “if” statement:

While using the “if” statement, the following indentations should be followed:

  • • The block of statements that follow the “if” statement should be indented.
  • • The Python interpreter uses this to check where the block begins and ends.

Algorithm:

Algorithm to replace character‘t’ with its upper case version is as follows:

  • • Iterate through the string using the “for” loop.
  • • Using the “if” statement, check whether character is‘t’.
  • • If character is “t”, convert to upper case.
  • • Create a new string with the upper case “t” character using the concatenation operation.
  • • Display a new string.

Pig LatinWrite a program that accepts a sentence as input and converts each word to “Pig Latin.” Inone version, to convert a word to Pig Latin, you remove the first letter and place that letterat the end of the word. Then, you append the string “ay” to the word. Here is an example:English: I SLEPT MOST OF THE NIGHTPig Latin: IAY LEPTSAY OSTMAY FOAY HETAY IGHTNAY   in python
Password modifier   Many user-created passwords are simple and easy to guess. Write a program that takes a simple password and makes it stronger by replacing characters using the key below, and by appending "q*s" to the end of the input string. You may assume that the string does not contain spaces and will always contain less than 50 characters. i becomes ! a becomes @ m becomes M B becomes 8 o becomes . Ex: If the input is: mypassword the output is: Myp@ssw.rdq*s LAB ACTIVITY   4.20.1: LAB: Password modifier 0 / 10     please you c programming
in python String user_string is read from input with leading and trailing whitespaces. Remove any leading and trailing whitespaces in the string. If user_string contains the string 'Paint color:', lowercase all the characters in user_string. Otherwise, capitalize the first character in user_string. Finally, print out the resulting string.
