The Office, Built with Strings

Muhammad — Tue, 30 Jun 2026 21:00:54 +0000

My simple Python Employee Info Card project that helps users create a basic employee profile then also displays the details in a clear and easy way. Basically, it turns the boring office task into Python practice.

The Employee Info Card

first_name = "John" # Place Holder
last_name = "Doe" # Place Holder

full_name = first_name + " " + last_name
address = "123 Main Street" # Place Holder
address += ", Apartment 4B" # Place Holder

employee_age = 28 # Place Holder

employee_info = full_name + " is " + str(employee_age) + " years old"
print(employee_info)

experience_years = 5 # Place Holder
experience_info = "Experience: " + str(experience_years) + " years"

print(experience_info)
position = "Data Analyst" # Place Holder

salary = 75000 # Place Holder
employee_card = f"Employee: {full_name} | Age: {employee_age} | Position: {position} | Salary: ${salary}"

print(employee_card)
employee_code = "DEV-2026-JD-001" # Place Holder

department = employee_code[0:3]
print(department)
year_code = employee_code[4:8]
print(year_code)
initials = employee_code[9:11]
print(initials)
last_three = employee_code [-3:]
print(last_three)

Features

Combines first and last name into a full name
Adds extra address details using string concatenation
Creates an experience summary
Formats an employee card with name, age, position, and salary
Uses an f-string to display information neatly
Extracts information from their employee code

Book Your Movie Tickets with Python

Muhammad — Tue, 30 Jun 2026 10:55:38 +0000

My simple Python Movie Ticket Booking Calculator that helps users simulate booking a ticket by changing ticket types , prices and more and then calculating the total cost in a clear and easy way

The Movie Ticket Booking Calculator

base_price = 15 # Place Holder
age = 21 # Place Holder
seat_type = "Gold" # Place Holder
show_time = "Evening" # Place Holder

if age > 17:
    print("User is eligible to book a ticket")

if age >= 21:
    print("User is eligible for Evening shows")
else:
    print("User is not eligible for Evening shows")

is_member = False # Place Holder
is_weekend = False # Place Holder

discount = 0
if is_member and age >= 21:
    discount = 3
    print("User qualifies for membership discount")
else:
    print("User does not qualify for membership discount")
print(f"Discount: ${discount}")

extra_charges = 0
if is_weekend or show_time == "Evening":
    extra_charges = 2
    print("Extra charges will be applied")
else:
    print("No extra charges will be applied")
print(f"Extra charges: ${extra_charges}")

if age >= 21 or age >= 18 and (show_time != "Evening" or is_member):
    print("Ticket booking condition satisfied")

    service_charges = 0
    if seat_type == "Premium":
        service_charges = 5
        print(f"Service charges: ${service_charges}")
    elif seat_type == "Gold" :
        service_charges = 3
        print(f"Service charges: ${service_charges}")
    else:
        service_charges = 1
        print(f"Service charges: ${service_charges}")
    final_price = extra_charges + service_charges + base_price - discount
    print(f"Final price of ticket: ${final_price}")
else:
    print("Ticket booking failed due to restrictions")

Features

Checks if the user is eligible to book a movie ticket
Adds extra charges for evening shows or weekend bookings
Applies a membership discount only when the user qualifies
Supports different seat types
Uses clear conditional logic with if , elif, and else statements
