ITECH1400 Foundations of ProgrammingCRICOS Provider No. 00103D ITECH1400 Assignment 2 Sem 1 2019 Page 1 of 4BiorhythmsOverview In this assignment you will provide a Python script which will calculate the Biorhythms for an individual and present the data graphically using libraries and a common algorithm.Timelines and Expectations Percentage Value of Task: 20% Due: 17:00 Friday May 31 2019 (week 11) Minimum time expectation: 20 hoursLearning Outcomes Assessed The following course learning outcomes are assessed by completing this assessment: K1. Identify and use the correct syntax of a common programming language. K2. Recall and use typical programming constructs to design and implement simple software solutions. K3. Reproduce and adapt commonly used basic algorithms. K4. Explain the importance of programming style concepts (documentation, mnemonic names, indentation)S2. Write and implement a solution algorithm using basic programming constructs. S3. Demonstrate debugging and testing skills whilst writing code.A1. Develop self-reliance and judgement in adapting algorithms to diverse contexts. A2. Design and write program solutions to identified problems using accepted design constructs.Assessment Details Biorhythms were developed by Wilhelm Fließ, a colleague of Sigmund Freud, in the 19th century and were very popular in the 1970s (Troutman, 1978); despite criticisms they are still used today in fields such as work safety to sports performance (Arab, Omidvari, & Nasiripour, 2014; Zareian, Rabbani, & Saeedi, 2014).The theory underlying Biorhythms proposes that, from birth, three cycles: physical, emotional and intellectual affect our performance. Understanding these cycles can help to optimise our potential.Figure 1 Biorhythm chart over the first 66-day period after birth (after Wiki)
CRICOS Provider No. 00103D ITECH1400 Assignment 2 Sem 1 2019.docx Page 2 of 4Although there are many references available, the paper by Troutman (1978) has been attached as an early computer application. An example of an algorithm to determine the day of any date has also been attached. (https://blog.artofmemory.com/how-to-calculate-the-day-of-the-week-4203.html)Your task is to develop a Python application that can display Biorhythms for a person given their date of birth and the target date. You should be able to provide the Biorhythms for a suitable spread around the target date as well.In creating the application you should seek to provide novel views of the Biorhythm curves – views that provide insight.While you are encouraged to research and discuss your work with colleagues, the final product must be all your own work. (Screen shots of a debugger might be useful in explaining how your code works.)Any help must be acknowledged as well as any resource material.Submission You must supply your program source code files and your documentation as a single zip file named as follows: _.zip e.g. Ada_LOVELACE_30331815.zipYou may supply your word processed documentation in either Microsoft Word or LibreOffice/OpenOffice formats only – no proprietary Mac specific formats, please. Assignments will be marked on the basis of fulfilment of the requirements and the quality of the work. In addition to the marking criteria, marks may be deducted for failure to comply with the assignment requirements, including (but not limited to): • Incomplete implementation(s), and • Incomplete submissions (e.g. missing files), and • Poor spelling and grammar.You might be asked to demonstrate and explain

Biorhythms
Biorhythms are inherent cycles which regulates emotions, memory, endurance, temperature
etc. We all have three fundamental biorhythms. Each biorhythm is representative of a particular function and has a different life cycle. It is a type of pseudoscience. They are based on the idea that a person’s life is on a cycle with peaks and troughs. These cycles can be calculated and plotted into graphs using mathematical formulas and thus determining good days (peaks) with bad days(troughs).
Physical biorhythm has a cycle of 23 days, emotional biorhythm has a cycle of 28 days and intellectual biorhythm has a cycle of 33 days.
At mid-point and end point of each cycle, the they sharply move back to zero and they change polarity. When a cycle changes polarity, that day is called transition day. A transition day is when we feel sad or downright have a low day. A double...
