- Assignment 4: Python: Jack Sparrow * Instructor: Dr. Roberto A. Flores Goal Use Python for problem solving. Description Jack Sparrow and his crew gazed happily upon the chest brimming with gemstones. Diamonds, rubies, sapphires, opals, and many other kinds of gems added to the sparkling collection. “We’re rich, my lads!” he said, “Now, here’s what we’re going to do. Each of us will take two stones now, then we’ll bury the rest because...because that’s what pirates do!” “Who chooses first?” asked the kitchen boy, fearing that he already knew the answer. “I’ll choose one first,” said Sparrow, “and then each man from there in order of rank, starting with the first mate down to the kitchen boy”. The lower-ranked crew members began to grumble. “Then,” said Sparrow, “the kitchen boy immediately chooses his second gem, and we proceed in reversed order until we get to me, and I will be the last to choose my second stone.” The crew quickly agreed and, almost as quickly, began trying to figure how to claim the best stones. Implementation Write a python file “pirates.py” that has the function “process( after, input )”, which receives an integer (“after”) indicating the number of pirates who choose a gem after you, and a list of tuples (“input”) holding the type and value of each jewel. For example, the tuple ('ruby', 6000, 5000) indicates that there are two rubies, one worth 6000 and the other 5000 doubloons. The function returns a string indicating the best two jewels you could choose. All gems in the input will be taken once each pirate has picked two gems. In cases where there are several gems with the same value, pirates choose the type of gem that is earliest alphabetically. Example 1: given 1 and [ ('ruby', 6000, 5000), ('diamond', 5000, 4000) ] as input, the method returns "ruby:6000 diamond:4000". Example 2: given 3 and [ ('Sapphire', 500, 500, 50, 50), ('Ruby', 5000, 500, 50, 5), ('Zircon', 1, 0, 0, 0), ('Diamond', 10000, 9000, 8000, 6000) ] the method returns "Ruby:5000 Ruby:5". You can implement additional functions and classes if needed. Unit Test Use the unit test file “piratesTest.py” to validate your implementation. This file must not be changed nor its answers hard-coded. Groups This assignment is done individually. No code (partially or totally) should be taken or disclosed to/from other people, including online resources. If in doubt, read the “Honor Code” section in the syllabus or contact your instructor. Submission Your program must be written for Python 3.0 or newer. Submit your “pirates.py” file to Scholar. �l�
