Choosing a project to make

Question

I am doing a python programming course in college and we are asked to do a final project, in general our uni is known for its unreasonable grading for projects no one got above 80 to 85 but i am aiming to close it ,i am asked to choose between Shotgun Metagenomics Pseudo-alignment and Text Analyzer of Long Documents Mentioning People
and their Stories as projects ,how does one generally choose a project what to take into account and what advice do you have to make a long project readable and organized ?

Answer 1

A good idea for university projects is to do a code that shows your understanding of ALL topics discussed, this way, your code will be readable and organized to show that you know what your doing, not just hoping AI code completion will do it, no spaghetti code (messy, unneeded, and unorganized), even with unresonable grading, this should work because the proffesor cant deny that you dont know the topics discussed in the course (what a final is supposed to asses). A good idea is to add something that you know extra to your project, ex: Ai in a personal webpage. Thats my advice

Answer 2

[Astro E] 王李 for ai i certainly agree that it is garbage , i would not even think of going down that path , i saw my course mates reach the fifth week of the course not knowing how to write a for or a while loop when we already learned functions and loops in the second week, i only read documentations or look up uses of certain libraries , or see how others apply try assert and so on

Answer 3

[Astro E] 王李 basically my goal is to improve my way of thinking , and i beilive i should take my chance to make this project useful for cv later on , so i am searching for advice on how normally projects are done reading some of the functions defined in python i feel like i should aim to learn about error classes decoraters , testing funcion and doc string and probably start working on git hub so that i can save copies for the project and edit them , as for getting 100 in the course i belive i can do it on my own , but i aim to make sure it is as functional and readable as it can be so that i dont get a down grade , and for that a headstart of what to avoid doing and aim to do is useful
