While I was in high school enrolled in online classes I always found myself going to Brave to search for the definition of a word or using an external application in order to keep track of homework assignments or others tasks that needed completion. I was also learning Python at the time and thought about creating an assistant that could handle all of the problems mentioned prior and more all within the terminal window. Using some of my prior experience with Java learning Python was less challenging than going in without any experience but by the time I was proficient in Python the school year was nearing completion. Nevertheless, I still sometimes find myself needlessly spending time within a browser or calculator that I could spend within the terminal. Pysistant will allow for simple mundane tasks that are completed in separate applications to be streamlined all within the terminal.
Features
The Pysistant will include:
- A Scientific Calculator
- A TODO list
- A Dictionary
- A Stopwatch
- A Timer
Software/Hardware used
- Virtual Studio Code - Primary IDE that will use to develop the majority of Pysistant in
- Python 3 - The programming language we will be using to create Pysistant
- Beautiful Soup 4 - A web scraping library we will use to find definitions of words
