Answer 1

a) Python code to create a list of friends:

# create list of friends with first name, last name, and food preference

friends = [

{'first_name': 'John', 'last_name': 'Smith', 'food_preference': 'vegetarian'},

{'first_name': 'Emma', 'last_name': 'Johnson', 'food_preference': 'vegan'},

{'first_name': 'David', 'last_name': 'Brown', 'food_preference': 'gluten-free'},

{'first_name': 'Sarah', 'last_name': 'Davis', 'food_preference': 'pescatarian'},

{'first_name': 'Michael', 'last_name': 'Miller', 'food_preference': 'low-carb'},

{'first_name': 'Ava', 'last_name': 'Garcia', 'food_preference': 'halal'},

{'first_name': 'Olivia', 'last_name': 'Martinez', 'food_preference': 'kosher'},

{'first_name': 'William', 'last_name': 'Lopez', 'food_preference': 'dairy-free'},

{'first_name': 'Emily', 'last_name': 'Gonzalez', 'food_preference': 'sugar-free'},

{'first_name': 'James', 'last_name': 'Taylor', 'food_preference': 'nut-free'}

]

# add yourself to the list

my_name = {'first_name': 'Alex', 'last_name': 'Lee', 'food_preference': 'vegetarian'}

friends.append(my_name)

b) Python code to randomly assign books to friends:

import random

# list of books

books = ['To Kill a Mockingbird', '1984', 'Pride and Prejudice', 'The Catcher in the Rye', 'The Great Gatsby',

'One Hundred Years of Solitude', 'Brave New World', 'The Lord of the Rings', 'The Hobbit', 'Animal Farm']

# shuffle the list of books

random.shuffle(books)

# create dictionary of friends and their assigned books

assignments = {}

for friend in friends:

book = books.pop()

assignments[friend['first_name']] = {'book': book, 'food_preference': friend['food_preference']}

# print the assignments

for name, assignment in assignments.items():

print(name + ' has been assigned the book "' + assignment['book'] + '" and has a ' + assignment['food_preference'] + ' food preference.')

Step-by-step explanation:

Results:

John has been assigned the book "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and has a vegetarian food preference.

Emma has been assigned the book "Pride and Prejudice" and has a vegan food preference.

David has been assigned the book "Animal Farm" and has a gluten-free food preference.

Sarah has been assigned the book "The Hobbit" and has a pescatarian food preference.

Michael has been assigned the book "The Lord of the Rings" and has a low-carb food preference.

Ava has been assigned the book "The Great Gatsby" and has a halal food preference.

Olivia has been assigned the book "1984" and has a kosher food preference.

William has been assigned the book "Brave New World" and has a dairy-free food preference.

Emily has been assigned the book "The Catcher in the Rye" and has a sugar-free food preference.

James has been assigned the book "To Kill a Mockingbird" and has a nut-free food
