Challenge your higher-ability students to complete these difficult Python programming tasks. Example solutions are included, written using skills which students will be familiar with and no need to install any additional libraries.

  1. Music Quiz
    Create and store music titles and artists in a CSV file, choose one at random, remove most of the characters, and ask the player to enter the correct title and artist.

  2. Play Your Cards Right
    Based on the classic game show. A card is randomly chosen and the player must guess whether the next card has a higher or lower value. You get nothing for a pair!

  3. Word Clock
    Output the current time as a sentence. E.g., 22:53 is “Seven minutes to eleven”.

  4. Binary Converter
    Ask the user to enter a denary integer and convert it to binary.

  5. Book Maker
    Download a free book and write a program which counts the number of characters; calculates the number of words and pages; adds page numbers; and a search function. And you get a free classic book!

Not tried them out on the students yet but these are great. Nice wide ranging skill set tested with good coverage of concepts pupils do indeed find challenging. A great resource for GCSE+. I intend to use these as "fun" summer work for GCSE into A'level. Thank you, you have saved me hours!
