Project 2 Instructions

Project 2 is now worth 80 points, and you have three options:

  1. Complete the Data Display project
    my original plan
  2. Complete the Search Engine + Enhancements project
    for folks who have already made significant progress on search engine assignment
  3. Complete at least 40 points worth of tasks from each of the projects

Some Notes

  1. You may work in pairs for this assignment (if you want).
  2. This project is simply an opportunity to get a little more practice with querying and displaying data using Python. It is not the sum total of all that you know and can do in Python. No need to go overboard and do tons of optional enhancements – fulfilling the minimum requirements is sufficient for earning full credit on this assignment.
  3. When you turn in your project, please include a short write-up (doesn’t even need to be complete sentences) telling the graders which option you chose to implement and which features you decided to implement. THIS IS CRITICAL for our graders.

    Example: “I am doing OPTION #1, and have implemented features 1, 2, and 3 (exemplar image, summary w/search words, and stemming).”

Extra credit

  1. If you do only one of the projects, you can earn up to 10 points extra credit (90 points total).
  2. If you do both of the assignments in their entirety, you can earn up to 30 points extra credit (110 points total).
