IT 212 -- Lab 1

• Deliverables: corrected.py (corrected source code), error-log.docx (list of all corrected errors), test-plan.docx (values of feet and inches to be used for testing, together with equivalent length in meters)
• Debug this Python source code file: meter-to-ft-in.py. Submit the following:
  
  
  1. A Word or text file containing the list the errors that you find with line numbers (error-log.docx or error-log.txt). For example, list the errors you find like this:
     

     Lines 2, 3, 4: Add # at the beginning of each comment line.
     Line 9: Change to meter = input('Enter length in meters: ')
     

  2. The corrected source code file (corrected.py).
  3. For full credit, the output in feet and inches should be all on one line with proper spacing. Here is a sample session:
     

     Do you wish to input another length in meters? Yes
     Enter length in meters: 0.0096
     The length is 3 feet 3 inches.
     Do you wish to input another length in meters? No
     

  4. Your test plan (test-plan.txt), which is a text file containing a list of all the inputs that you use to check that your source code files. For full credit, also include the results of your testing, including any errors that still remain after debugging. Include a table with lines like this:
     

       Feet  Inches  Feet & Fraction    Meters
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  3  |   3   |     3.25       | 0.9906  |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     

     Include other combinations of feet and inches that you feel will test all of the source code. For example, you need to test these cases for feet:
     
     1. feet > 1
     2. feet == 1
     3. feet == 0
     
     Same for inches. Don't worry about testing for negative feet and/or inches, or about nonnumeric input. Here is a start on the test plan that we worked on in class with the first two rows completed:
     

       Feet  Inches  Feet & Fraction    Meters
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  3  |   1   |    3.0833333   | 0.9398  |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  5  |   9   |    5.75        | 1.7526  |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  8  |   0   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  1  |   1   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  1  |   9   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  1  |   0   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  0  |   1   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  0  |   9   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     |  0  |   0   |                |         |
     +-----+-------+----------------+---------+
     

     Use these formulas to fill in the rest of the boxes:
     FeetAndFraction = Feet + Inches / 12,
     Meters = FeetAndFraction / 3.28084.
  5. Here is a debugging checklist to help you on projects later in this course.
  6. Submit all three files in a zip file named Lab1Smith.zip (replace Smith with your last name).

Grading Breakdown: Error List: 20; Corrected Source code: 15, Test Plan: 15.
