How to begin!!!

Question

As I was told, they said you become better as much as you practice! Now, I have written a Python code which receives input from user and perform some statistical operation on the values.

1. It process it and gets the frequency table (this table isn't so fine as I don't know how to create a table with Python yet!) So I had to be printing my results separated with lines
E.g | score | Freq |
| 12 - 15 | 30 |
| 16 - 19 | 16 |
etc.

So when I have a large data size, the table becomes wobbly.

2. It calculates the mean, median and mode.

3. It calculates the percentile and quartile.

I am a beginner!! I believe this task will surely exist in a predefined module, but I just need to do something!!!

My main problem

I want to make this program better to the extent that I will be able to make it into a mobile app

I will really appreciate your contributions.

I will also like this post to go viral so I can have a lot of comments, criticism and suggestion to pick from.

Thanks everyone! -->

Answer 1

Yeah not gunna go viral but i can help with making pretty tables.

...
title = 'Score |Frequency | '
print(title)
print('=' * len(title))
for i in whatever:
print(f'{value1:>6} |{value2:>6} |')
print('-' * len(title))

Really look at the f strings. After the ":" you see a ">" and a "6" in each set of curly brackets. The ">" pushes the value to one side and the "6" says how wide the cell is.

might need some fine tuning but thats a table for ya
