Introduction to Stellarium
Objectives
Become familiar with the Stellarium program and its user interface
learn how to use a star chart
Stellarium is a software project that acts as a virtual planetarium. It calculates the positions of the
Sun and Moon, planets and stars, and draws how the sky would look to an observer depending on their location and the time. It can also draw the constellations and simulate astronomical phenomena such as meteor showers, and solar or lunar eclipses.
The advantages of using a computer-generated sky are numerous. First, and most obviously, it’s never too cloudy to observe the sky on the screen! Another powerful advantage is time. We can examine the sky on any day, at any time: past, present, or future. We can watch the stars and planets move quickly across the night sky in a way that would not be possible outdoors, or even with a professional telescope. We can change our location, and see the sky from parts of the world we have never visited...or from other worlds entirely.
Procedure
Launch the Stellarium program. When the program has loaded, your screen should show you located in a field of grass, facing south.

Background to the problem:
A nutritional app assists users in assessing their dietary habits. For the purpose of evaluation, the app asks the members to report how many fat grams and how many carbohydrate grams they consume per day.
To help users manage their calorie budgets more effectively, the app calculates the total calories derived from fat and carbohydrates, rounded to the nearest calorie.
The problem:
The purpose of this question is to write a program that will perform these nutritional calculations. Specifically, you will produce an estimate of the total calories as follows:
The number of calories resulting from the fat are calculated by multiplying the fat grams by 9.
Similarly, the number of calories that result from the carbohydrates are calculated as the carbohydrates grams multiplied by 4.
Your individual number is tied to the total calories so that there is some margin of error in the estimates.
For example, if a member reported of fat and of carbohydrates on a…

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
The Tax Processing program needs to be modernized. A GUI (Graphical User Interface) is now
required. Radio buttons and text boxes are needed for input and output purposes. A button will be
used for processing data.
You are required to create a webpage to implement the interface required using the JavaScript
programming language. The illustration below displays the format of the GUI screen yequired.

In python GUI or Visual Basics I need a room management system where you can book rooms and see if they are booked or not following example
Floor1: Rooms 100, 102, 104, 106, 108, 110, 112, . . . . . . . . . . . ., 198
Floor2: Rooms 200, 202, 204, 206, 208, 210, 212, . . . . . . . . . . . ., 298

Floor 4: Rooms 400, 402, 404, 406, 408, 410, 412, . . . . . . . . . . . ., 498
Note that rooms are numbered in increments of two.
Rooms are being assigned on the basis of the first initial of the attendee’s last name:
People whose last name begins with “A” to “F” are on the first floor (rooms 100 – 198)
People whose last name begins with “G” to “L” are on the second floor (rooms 200 – 298)
People whose last name begins with “M” to “R” are on the third floor (rooms 300 – 398)
