Question : Programming Essentials

You are in charge of managing a local softball team, one in which there is a lot of turnover. While you have a couple of regulars, much of the team members come and go frequently. When it comes to organizing games, it is becoming more and more difficult to keep track of the current members, so you decide to write a small program to help you track the current players.

Write a modularized program that will utilize a main menu to control the program's functions and a list to store the members of your team.

The following functions that your program needs to include:

Print the current member list.

Add a new member.

Remove a member.

Modify an existing member.

Exit the program

Remeber that you can create a function using 'def.' In other words, for adding a new member, you will need a function similar to: def aaddmember.

Note: Since we have not covered File Access, do not worry about long term storage for your list. Each time you run the program, you will have to create a new list. You are welcome to skip ahead to the File I/O if you would like to tackle this additional functionality, but file access is NOT required for this assignment.

REMEBER, IT HAS TO BE A MODULARIZED PROGRAM

THEN WITH THAT CODE, UPGRADE IT TO THIS:

Your program for keeping track of team members is coming along, but now you want to be able to include phone numbers and jersey numbers along with your team member's name. Modify your program so that the program utilizes object-oriented programming to create a member object which can accept the player's name, phone number, and jersey number. You will need to replace the list with a dictionary to help in locating objects for removal and editing. Again, File Access for long-term storage is not required for this assignment.

Tips: While dictionaries resemble lists, remember that they are not the same! It is better to use FOR loops, not WHILE loops with index values.

REMEBER, THE CODE HAS TO BE IN OOP STYLE!

THEN WITH THAT NEW CODE:

Until now, you have had to leave your team management program running on your computer indefinitely since you did not want to lose the list of players. Finally, you are ready to add the components to your team management program that will allow you to store the player's information on your computer's hard drive, thus, allow you to shut down your program without losing your data.

You will need to modify your program to:

include a Save option in the main menu which will prompt the program to write the player's data to a text file.
modify the startup code so that the program calls a function that reads the player's data from the text file into the list of member objects.
Tips: Think about how you are going to write the data to the text file when you create the load function. Your write function needs to read in the data in the same pattern as the load function, otherwise the data will get jumbled.

Sample output:

C:>python week6.py
