If your subject is fertility treatments, for example, your thesis might be “The high number of multiple births is forcing society to examine the ethical issues that are caused by fertility drugs and invitro fertilization.”

Abstract: [Write a concise summary of the key points of your research. Your abstract should include the industry selected and the topics you will cover in your research paper. Your abstract should be between 150 and 250 words. Include “This researcher will provide strategic recommendations for the [specific management  issue(s)] affecting [company name]”.

Assignment 1

Stock Management

The goal here is to write some software that would assist a retail store manage their stock levels. The assignment will get progressively more complex as it proceeds – the early stages will be reasonable straight forward and will be sufficient for a passing grade, and the more advanced stages are for those who wish to go further and target a higher overall result.

General Requirements

All assignments should be written in Python 3 and should run in IDLE. They can be written on any type of computer, but they should be able to be executed in the computer pool.

The highest marks will be for working code. However, in cases where there are problems, you will be assigned marks for how you approached the task. It is also expected that you will provide comments in the programs to explain how it works, and these comments will account for up to 10% of the overall grade.

In each case example output is given. You should try and make your output and process match the example as closely as possible.

Stage 1: Data Entry

Write a program which requests that requests a product name and a stock number. Store that data in a List or a Dictionary. After the user has entered data, request that the user enters Y or N to continue. If they enter N, print the list of products and stock numbers to the screen. If they enter Y, repeat the first step.

Your program should produce the following result:

*************************      Stock Manager ************************* Product Name: Widgets Stock Level: 14 Widgets has been entered with a stock of 14 products. Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) Y Product Name: Fidgets Stock Level: 22 Fidgets has been entered with a stock of 22 products. Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) N ————————- Product         Stock ————————- Widgets      14 Fidgets      22 ————————-

Stage 2: Validation and Totals

Building on stage 1, you now need to ensure that the program checks for valid entries in each case, and converts the text to the appropriate format.

You need to:

• Ensure that a stock number and product name were entered, If any of these were not entered, do not record that item and go straight to asking if they wish to continue.
• Ensure that the user enters either “Y”, “y”, “N” or “n” when asked if they wish to continue. Continue to ask until they enter a valid result.
• Ensure that the stock number is a number
• Output the total number of products held in stock

(Y/N) Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) d Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) y Product Name: Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) Y Product Name: Fidgets Stock Level: Twenty Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) Y Product Name: Fidgets Stock Level: 20 Fidgets has been entered with a stock of 20 products. Do you wish to enter another record? (Y/N) n ————————- Product         Stock ————————- Widgets      12 Fidgets      20 ————————- Total         32 ————————-

Stage 3: Product List and Menu

This involves three separate jobs:

• Create a menu with multiple options
• Add products separately and allow the user to select the product.
• Allow multiple stock numbers to be entered for each product and record the total

Sample Output

Stage 4: Importing, Exporting and Reporting

In the final stage we introduce the ability to load product lists, export stock levels, and compare stock levels with expected stock levels to generate a report. You will be provided with a sample file for stock and a sample file to compare against.

This will require additional research into Python

Now that things are getting more complex, you are expected to use functions to manage these tasks in your program.
