Python Programming: OOP, RegEx, and Web Scraping
Practical 1: Car Class Implementation
Purpose: Demonstrate basic Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) by creating a Car class with accelerate and brake methods.
class Car:
def __init__(self, year, mpg, speed):
self.year = year
self.mpg = mpg
self.speed = speed
def accelerate(self):
self.speed += 10
print(f"The car speeds up. Current speed is {self.speed}")
def brake(self):
if self.speed >= 10:
self.speed -= 10
else:

Tampa Bay Rays Relocate to Abbotsford — White-Cats
Move the Tampa Bay Rays to Abbotsford!
The Fraser Valley White-Cats
I think the Tampa Bay Rays should move to Abbotsford because this city is growing, has many sports fans, and would support a Major League Baseball team.
If the team moves, they should be renamed the Fraser Valley White-Cats. The new name represents the animals and nature of British Columbia.
With a new stadium, new brand, and strong fan support, the Fraser Valley White-Cats would become very popular.
Reasons for the Move
- Abbotsford is
Database Normalization: Functional Dependencies and Normal Forms
1. Trivial vs Non-Trivial Dependency
These types describe the basic mathematical relationship between the sets of attributes.
- Trivial Functional Dependency: Occurs when the dependent (RHS) is a subset of the determinant (LHS). It is “trivial” because it doesn’t provide new information.
- Logic: X → Y is trivial if Y ⊆ X.
- Example: {Student_ID, Name} → {Name}.
- Non-Trivial Functional Dependency: Occurs when the dependent is not a subset of the determinant.
- Logic: X → Y is non-trivial if Y ⊄ X.
- Example:
C Programming: Arrays, Functions, and String Handling
One-Dimensional Arrays
A one-dimensional array is a linear collection of elements of the same data type, stored in contiguous memory locations.
1. Declaration
Declaring an array tells the compiler its name, data type, and size.
data_type array_name[size];- Example:
int scores[5];// Declares an array named scores that can hold 5 integers.
2. Initialization
You can initialize an array at the time of declaration or assign values later.
| Method | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Declaration with Size | int marks[3] = {90, 85, 95} |

Java Exceptions: Checked vs Unchecked
Differentiating Exception Types in Java
Exceptions in Java are runtime errors that disrupt the normal flow of a program. They are classified into checked and unchecked exceptions.
Checked Exceptions are verified at compile time. The programmer must either handle them using try-catch blocks or declare them using the throws keyword. These exceptions usually occur due to external factors such as file handling, database access, or network issues. Examples include IOException,
