Create a computer program
You'll write a working computer program that takes input, does something useful with it, and shows results. Your program needs to use variables, loops, decision-making, and collections (like lists). You must test it, fix any bugs, and explain your code with comments.
You create a working program that takes input, stores data in variables, uses the required control structures and collections, and produces output—with basic comments explaining the code.
Your program is well-organized with clear, meaningful variable names; your comments explain what different sections do; and you test it on both normal cases and tricky edge cases (like empty input or boundary values).
Your program is flexible and handles unusual situations gracefully; you use constants or variables instead of hardcoded numbers to make it easy to modify; your comments are helpful; and you test it thoroughly on normal cases, edge cases, and invalid input that might break it.
