Thanks Bob! :) I'm very new at programming in Python. I appreciate your
feedback.
Here are some improvements to consider:
import string
def main():
d = {"1" : phoneTranslator, "2" : backwardString} # map user
selection to corresponding function
while True:
selection = raw_input("Enter you choice. Enter 1 " +
"for Phone Translator or 2 for Backward String.")
operation = d.get(selection, None) # retrieve corresponding
function or None
if operation: # did we get something?
operation() # call it
break # out of the while loop
print "Invalid choice"
def phoneTranslator():
trans = string.maketrans("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ",
"22233344455566677778889999")
print "Phone Translator "
phoneNumber = raw_input ("Please enter the phone number: ").upper()
phoneNumber = phoneNumber.translate(trans)
print phoneNumber[:3] + "-" + phoneNumber[3:]
def backwardString():
print "not implemented"
main()
