Making a Chatbot Using Python

 Hello and welcome back to the exciting coding post. In the class, Computer Science we have continued to code using python. This unit relates to the last unit and post that was made about Inputs. There I made a calculator and a form letter that can function when the user types in inputs that respond to some of the computer's questions. For this unit we have made a chatbot that will take inputs but also respond to the user. Chatbots are used on many different websites. There are some that are solely dedicated to having a computer talk to you based on your questions and answers. Some websites where it asks if you want to speak to a worker or other person use a chatbot to answer the user and direct them to a worker. In this piece of code I included some questions, a random response generator, and a few other modules and functions. If you would like to try the chatbot out for yourself you can. All you need to do is answer the questions it gives you on the right side of the code box. 



That is the last coding project of the term. I hope they were easy to understand and manage. I liked working on this chatbot. Taking the code piece by piece was interesting and when it all came together and worked it was better. Although I had some minor struggle with the coding I was able to continue working on it and eventually finish. The if/elif/else statements are fun to assemble. They can use input and print functions and they are good with creating chatbots. Of course this code that I made can be larger. With more questions and answers to give the chatbot can be better. There are also some ways that the code can look cleaner by adding a few functions to them. If you want to make a chatbot of your own it works how mine does and you can create many different questions that are asked or even show something else like a photo. Thank you for reading through this blog post and exploring the chatbot if you did. This project was pretty fun and I am excited to see what else I can code in the future.

Food, a Human Right?

In our Humanities or SDGs class, Sustainable Development Goals, we were talking about the certain goals that could be thought of as a need to be a human right. The options were no poverty, no hunger, and quality education. The goal that I chose was number two, no hunger. I believe that food should be a human right because it is primarily a basic need. We need food to survive and if we do not have it we will obviously die, since that is the only alternative. Before then we went on a field experience to Lincoln Park Community Services in Chicago. There we experienced people who are hungry and we also as a class, cooked for the people that attended the lunch. I personally enjoyed this because I was able to talk with people that needed food and they were really appreciative of the food that they had been given. This led to the action project which is an essay about our chosen goal. The essay is below. To, Hiu, LPCS 2019, One of the food items cooked was chicken. Could you imagine...

Input Manipulation Using Python

Welcome back to my blog. This post is for the projects in the Computer Science class. In Computer Science we have been learning about different types of coding and how computers work. We have done math problems in binary code and practiced making something from using python. In these two projects we used python to code a advanced calculator that you can use to find what the temperature in Celsius is based off of your input of your temperature outside in Fahrenheit. The second project here is a code that uses your inputs to create a letter to a state representative to talk about something important to you. Both of these codes have been checked multiple times to see if there were any errors or changes that needed to be made. If you would like to try them out for yourself you can do so by typing in your responses on the right to the questions that are asked. The first project is an advanced calculator that takes an input of a given temperature in Fahrenheit and converts it into Celsius fo...

Can You Spell Sub-Bituminous Coal?

The first unit of this winter term was very interesting in the Fuel class for STEAM. We did a lot of talking about energy and different types of fuel. Some of these include the known fossil fuels, natural gas, oil, coal, and also renewable sources of energy like solar and wind. We also watched the documentary Pump which is about people having a choice at the gas pump and being able to decide what fuel they should use for their car. In this unit we talked to someone from Nicor Gas where we found some extra opinion on the use of natural gases and the other fuels we use today. This unit largely talked about fossil fuels and how we use them in our daily lives without even realizing it. We might be getting our power in our home from a coal plant and our car uses gas. Even though we may fill up our cars about once every couple weeks we may not actually think about what is happening somewhere that is allowing us to have this gas. In this unit we also did a lot of graphing and predictions for ...
