Question

Write a python 3 program-containing 2 functions and a main program that calls those functions to test them thoroughly.

Step 1:

Create a FUNCTION called createMenu that creates a STRING which will produce the following output when printed by the main program. The function should accept TWO parameters: menuHeading (a string) and optionList (a list of strings). It should NOT PRINT ANYTHING – it simply RETURNS a string. HINT: initialize tmp to be an empty string, then use a loop that goes through the optionList one string at a time, concatenating a count, the string, and a newline character (‘ ’) onto tmp , Return tmp when the loop is finished.

Step 2:

Create another FUNCTION called getValidInput that accepts 3 parameters: msg: a string that tells the user what they should be entering start: a POSITIVE integer end: a POSITIVE integer that is greater than start This function should continue to ask the user to enter a number (using the msg parameter to describe what kind of number they’ll be entering) until they type an integer that is in the range start to end, including both. If they enter a punctuation character, a letter, or something that isn’t a number, print an error message asking them to try again. The function should RETURN a valid number. Example main program to test these functions:

message = “Enter a test score in the range 1-100”

sc = getValidInput(message, 1, 100)

print(“Your test score: “, sc, “was in the proper range)

prompt = “Enter your guess – 1 for heads, 2 for tails “

guess = getValidInput(prompt, 1,2)

if guess == 1: print(“You guessed heads”)

else:

print(“You guessed tails”)

menuOptions = [ “Add”, “Subtract”,”Quit”]

mainMenu = createMenu(“Arithmetic Practice”, menuOptions) print(mainMenu)

optionList = [“Savings Account”, “Checking Account”, “IRA Account”, “Exit”]

myMenu = createMenu(“Bank Accounts”, optionList) print(myMenu)
