The finale is here! Day 2 solution has also been posted.
Today we're turning your QuestBot into a complete AI assistant. Alex is practically buzzing with excitement: "I can't believe I built something that actually works!"
Time to add the intelligence that makes it truly special.
What we're completing today: Task deletion, AI-powered motivational quotes, and a portfolio-ready project that proves you can build with AI.
Time needed: ~60 minutes
XP Reward: 100 XP + Quest Champion badge ๐
End Result: A complete AI assistant you can showcase!
๐ฏ Mission Overview

- ๐๏ธ Delete completed tasks by number
- ๐ง Generate random motivational wisdom
- โจ Handle user errors gracefully
- ๐ Be ready for your portfolio
- ๐ Prove you can build real AI projects!

This is it - your final build day! ๐ฅ
Quest 1: Master Task Control (40 XP - 20 min)
Time to give QuestBot the power to help you stay organized by removing completed tasks!
Step 1: Import AI Intelligence
First, let's add the power of randomness (which is a key part of AI!):
# QuestBot Day 3 - The Complete AI Assistant
import random # This gives us AI-like randomness
print("๐ค SYSTEM INITIALIZING...")
print("โจ QuestBot v3.0 ONLINE - Full AI Powers Activated!")
print("")
Step 2: Create the Wisdom Database
Every good AI needs knowledge to draw from:
# QuestBot's motivational wisdom database
quotes = [
"Keep slaying, Recruit! ๐ฅ",
"You're unstoppable! ๐ช",
"Forge your future! โก",
"Every mission brings you closer to mastery! ๐ฏ",
"Small steps, giant leaps! ๐",
"Code today, conquer tomorrow! ๐ป",
"Your potential is infinite! โญ",
"Progress over perfection! ๐"
]
Step 3: Build on Your Foundation
Use your Day 1 & 2 code as the base:
# Greeting system (from Day 1)
name = input("What's your Recruit name? ")
vibe = input("Pick a vibe (epic, chill, heroic): ")
print(f"\\nSalute, {name}! QuestBot is ready in {vibe} mode!")
# Task collection system (from Day 2)
tasks = []
print("\\n๐ Mission Log System ACTIVATED!")
print("Ready to log your missions! Type 'done' when finished.")
print("-" * 50)
while True:
task = input("Log a mission (or 'done' to finish): ")
if task.lower() == "done":
break
tasks.append(task)
print(f"โ
Added: {task}")
# Display current missions
print(f"\\n๐ฏ {name}'s Epic Mission Log:")
print("=" * 40)
for i, task in enumerate(tasks, 1):
print(f"Mission {i}: {task}")
print("=" * 40)
Step 4: Add Task Deletion Power
Now for the new feature - task management:
# Task deletion system
if len(tasks) > 0: # Only offer deletion if there are tasks
print("\\n๐๏ธ Mission Complete? Let's clean up your log!")
delete = input("Delete a completed mission? Enter number (or 'no'): ")
if delete.isdigit(): # Check if they entered a number
task_num = int(delete) # Convert to integer
if 1 <= task_num <= len(tasks): # Valid range?
removed = tasks.pop(task_num - 1) # Remove task (subtract 1 for list index)
print(f"๐ Mission Accomplished! Vanquished: '{removed}'")
else:
print("โ Invalid mission number. Try again next time!")
elif delete.lower() != "no":
print("๐ค I didn't understand that. Use a number or 'no'.")
๐ฎ Test Your Task Control:
- Add 3-4 tasks
- Try deleting task number 2
- Try invalid numbers (0, 99, etc.)
- Try typing "no"
- Watch QuestBot handle everything smoothly!
โ Checkpoint: QuestBot can intelligently delete tasks and handle errors
Quest 2: Add AI Wisdom (30 XP - 15 min)
Time to give QuestBot a brain! Every interaction should end with personalized motivation.
Step 1: Display Updated Mission Log
After any deletion, show the updated list:
# Show updated mission log
if len(tasks) > 0:
print(f"\\n๐ Updated Mission Log:")
print("=" * 30)
for i, task in enumerate(tasks, 1):
print(f"Mission {i}: {task}")
print("=" * 30)
else:
print("\\n๐ Mission Log is clear! Ready for new challenges!")
Step 2: Activate AI Wisdom Mode
Here's where the "AI" really shines:
# AI Wisdom System
print(f"\\n๐ QuestBot's Daily Wisdom for {name}:")
print("-" * 35)
wisdom = random.choice(quotes) # AI selects perfect motivation!
print(f"๐ญ '{wisdom}'")
print("-" * 35)
print("\\n๐ Stay focused and keep building your future!")
๐ฎ Test the AI:
- Run your program multiple times
- Each run should show a different motivational quote
- This randomness makes it feel like real AI interaction!
โ Checkpoint: QuestBot provides AI-powered motivation
Quest 3: Portfolio Polish (30 XP - 25 min)
Time to make this project portfolio-ready! Professional developers always document their work.
Step 1: Complete Day 3 Code
Here's your final QuestBot with all features:
# QuestBot Day 3 - The Complete AI Assistant
import random
print("๐ค SYSTEM INITIALIZING...")
print("โจ QuestBot v3.0 ONLINE - Full AI Powers Activated!")
print("")
# Motivational wisdom database
quotes = [
"Keep slaying, Recruit! ๐ฅ",
"You're unstoppable! ๐ช",
"Forge your future! โก",
"Every mission brings you closer to mastery! ๐ฏ",
"Small steps, giant leaps! ๐",
"Code today, conquer tomorrow! ๐ป",
"Your potential is infinite! โญ",
"Progress over perfection! ๐"
]
# Greeting system
name = input("What's your Recruit name? ")
vibe = input("Pick a vibe (epic, chill, heroic): ")
print(f"\\nSalute, {name}! QuestBot is ready in {vibe} mode!")
# Task collection
tasks = []
print("\\n๐ Mission Log System ACTIVATED!")
print("Ready to log your missions! Type 'done' when finished.")
print("-" * 50)
while True:
task = input("Log a mission (or 'done' to finish): ")
if task.lower() == "done":
break
tasks.append(task)
print(f"โ
Added: {task}")
# Display mission log
print(f"\\n๐ฏ {name}'s Epic Mission Log:")
print("=" * 40)
for i, task in enumerate(tasks, 1):
print(f"Mission {i}: {task}")
print("=" * 40)
# Task deletion
if len(tasks) > 0:
print("\\n๐๏ธ Mission Complete? Let's clean up your log!")
delete = input("Delete a completed mission? Enter number (or 'no'): ")
if delete.isdigit():
task_num = int(delete)
if 1 <= task_num <= len(tasks):
removed = tasks.pop(task_num - 1)
print(f"๐ Mission Accomplished! Vanquished: '{removed}'")
# Show updated log
if len(tasks) > 0:
print(f"\\n๐ Updated Mission Log:")
print("=" * 30)
for i, task in enumerate(tasks, 1):
print(f"Mission {i}: {task}")
print("=" * 30)
else:
print("\\n๐ Mission Log is clear! Ready for new challenges!")
else:
print("โ Invalid mission number. Try again next time!")
elif delete.lower() != "no":
print("๐ค I didn't understand that. Use a number or 'no'.")
# AI Wisdom System
print(f"\\n๐ QuestBot's Daily Wisdom for {name}:")
print("-" * 35)
wisdom = random.choice(quotes)
print(f"๐ญ '{wisdom}'")
print("-" * 35)
print("\\n๐ Stay focused and keep building your future!")
print("\\n๐ป QuestBot signing off. Great work today, Recruit!")
