2. Context Information

You are working as a developer in a property investment company located in Melbourne,

Australia. Your company is providing service for customers from all over the world to invest

in properties in Melbourne. As your company grows, the management team has discovered

that some of the administrative tasks are time-consuming and repetitive. Therefore, as the

only developer in this company, your task here is to automate some of these administrative

tasks. To test your implemented functionalities, you are provided a CSV file which contains

information about the properties sold in some suburbs from 2010 onwards.

3. Implementation Instructions

Your implementation must include a text interface (a text interface is the least

requirement) with functionalities detailed below. Your program will be evaluated based on

its clarity, including the provision of clear information and error messages. Your program

should handle exceptions properly and handle unexpected cases wherever necessary. The

validation of data types and values should be done within each functionality.

To ensure that your code can be properly evaluated by the teaching team:

1. Please ensure that your implemented methods use the same names and method

signatures (i.e. number and type of input arguments and the type of the return

value) as required,

2. Please ensure that your code is properly formatted, such as proper variable naming

conventions, consistent indentations, proper line length, etc.,

3. Please ensure that you provide clear and coherent comments on your code to aid

with the graders’ interpretation of your code,

4. For more details regarding formatting and commenting, see the PEP 8 Style

Guideline.

3.1. The Investor Application

You are required to use object-oriented programming to implement the text interface and

the following functionalities described from 3.2. to 3.8., which allows users to select and

perform certain operations. You should determine the proper number of classes needed

instead of including all the methods in one class (for example, you may create a class 1)

SimpleDataAnalyser to deal with the loading of data as well as the simple analyses ; 2)

DataVisualiser to deal with the visualisations; and 3) Investor to display a menu, ask for

and process user inputs, etc.). Please make sure to create a main.py file to run your

implemented text interface. You should also provide an instruction file in PDF format, which

is no more than two pages in length, to describe the usage of the interface. For each

functionality from 3.2 to 3.8, we list a core method as shown below. Note that for these

core methods described below, you should use the same method name and include the

same method parameter. The only permitted modification is to add the “self” keyword

to the methods.

3.2. Extracting Property Information

The extract_property_info(file_path) method is responsible for reading the

property information from the data file located at the specified file_path. This method

returns a dataframe.

3.3. Currency Exchange

Since many of the customers are from different countries, the

currency_exchange(dataframe, exchange_rate) method is responsible for

transforming the property prices in Australian dollars into the target currency according to

the exchange rate. The variable dataframe is the one returned in 3.2., and the data type

of exchange_rate is float. This method returns a NumPy array of transformed prices.

3.4. Suburb Property Summary

The purpose of this method is to display the summary of the properties with respect to the

number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms and number of parking spaces for a given

suburb. Your task is to write a method suburb_summary(dataframe, suburb)

where dataframe is the one returned by the method described in 3.2. and suburb is the

target suburb to be analysed. Here, if the value of suburb is “all”, the method should

display the summary from all the suburbs. If the value of suburb does not exist in the

dataframe, an error message should be displayed. The summary should at least include

the mean values, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum. This method does

not have a return value.

3.5. Average Land Size

Your task here is to implement the method avg_land_size(dataframe, suburb)

where dataframe is the one returned by the method described in 3.2. and suburb is the

target suburb to be analysed (or all suburbs if the value of suburb is “all”). This method

calculates and returns the average land size in ?? of properties in the suburb (or None if the 2

suburb does not exist). Note that the invalid land size values should be excluded and that the

size units are different for some properties.

3.6. Property Value Distribution

Here, you will be visualising the property values as a histogram so as to easily present to the

customers. You are provided a dictionary of key-value pairs where the keys are the names of

Page 5 of 14

the currency and the values are their exchange rate to Australian dollars, which you can use

as a local variable within this method:

currency_dict = {"AUD": 1, "USD": 0.66, "INR": 54.25, "CNY":

4.72, "JPY": 93.87, "HKD": 5.12, "KRW": 860.92, "GBP": 0.51,

"EUR": 0.60, "SGD": 0.88}

Your task is to write a method prop_val_distribution(dataframe, suburb,

target_currency) which:

● Takes the following parameters:

○ A dataframe

○ A suburb value

○ A target currency (whose default value is “AUD”)

● Converts the property value into the target currency if the currency is in the

currency_dict. In cases where the target currency does not exist in the

currency_dict, the program needs to inform the user and generate the

histogram in AUD.

● Produces a graphical representation (i.e., a histogram) of the property value

distribution of the specified suburb (or all suburbs if the value of suburb is “all”)

based on the converted property values and save this graphical representation as a

file.

● In cases where the target suburb does not exist in the dataframe, the program

should inform the user and generate the histogram with all suburbs and save the

graph as a file.

● Note that the records with missing price values should be excluded.

You will need to invoke methods implemented in previous steps. This method does not have

a return value.

3.7. Sales Trend

Here, you will need to calculate the number of properties sold in each year and visualise the

results as a line chart so that a sales trend can be easily observed. The line chart should be

saved as an image file locally.

Your task is to implement the method sales_trend(dataframe) where dataframe

is the one returned by the method described in 3.1. The method does not have a return

value.

3.8. Identifying a Property of a Specific Price in a Suburb

Your task here is to implement the locate_price(target_price, data,

target_suburb) method to find out if a specific target_price value is in the list of

prices from a specific suburb in. The variable data is a dataframe loaded by a previous

Page 6 of 14

method. You should filter the data according to the variable target_suburb to get the

list of prices for the properties in the target_suburb. The variable target_price is

a numeric value. This method first sorts the list of prices using a reverse insertion sort (i.e.,

an insertion sort algorithm that sorts the list in descending order). Then this method

searches for the target_price value within the reversely sorted list of prices using

recursive binary search. A boolean value of True or False will be returned by this method to

indicate if the target_price value can be found in the list of prices filtered for the

target_suburb.

4. Do and Do NOT

Do Do NOT

● Maintain appropriate citing and referencing1

,

● Get support early from this unit and other

services within the university,

● Apply for special consideration or for

extensions2 early if needed.

● Leave your assignment in draft mode

(assignments in draft mode will not be

marked),

● Submit late (10% daily penalty applies)3

,

● Attempt to submit after 7 days of the due

date (they will not be accepted), unless

you have special consideration.

4.1. Important Notes:

● If any exceptions/errors happen when running your program and are not properly

handled, you will lose 50% of the functionality where the exceptions/errors occur.

For example, if the total mark of one functionality is 10 marks and any exception

happens when running this functionality which causes the program to terminate,

then the maximum mark you can get is 5 instead of 10.

● Add correct validation and output messages to make your code more user-friendly to

users.

● For each function listed in 3.2 to 3.8, add code to test each functionality and also the

expected behaviour. The test code should be placed in the main.py file as comments.

For example, if you have created a class named DataExtracter where

extract_property_info(file_path) is an instance method:

# de = DataExtracter()

# df = de.extract_property_info("property_information.csv")

# len(df)

# this should output 118771

● This is an individual assignment and must be completed on your own. You must

attribute the source of any part of your code that you have not written yourself.

Please note the section on Academic Integrity in this document.

● The assignment must be done using PyCharm, Python 3.10.

● The Python code for this assignment must be implemented according to the PEP

8-Style Guide for Python Code.

3 e.g.: If the original mark was 70/100, submitting 2 days late results in 50/100 (20 mark

deduction). This includes weekends and public holidays.

● The allowed libraries are OS, NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib and SciPy. You will receive

penalties if you use any other libraries. If you are implementing unit tests, you are

allowed to use unittest.

● For using any built-in functions/methods, students should seek confirmation from

the teaching team.

● Commenting on your code is an essential part of the assessment criteria. In addition

to inline and function commenting on your code, you should include

comments/markdowns at the beginning of your program file which specify your full

name, student ID, the creation date, and the last modified date of the program, as

well as a high-level description of the program.

● This assignment cannot be completed in a few days and requires students to apply

what they learnt each week as we move closer to the submission date. Please

remember to show your progress weekly to your tutor.

● You must keep up to date with the Moodle Ed Assignment 3 forum where further

clarifications may be posted (this forum is to be treated as your client). If there are

any changes to the specification, apart from making announcements on Ed, we will

update the new specification on Moodle.

● Please be careful to ensure you do not publicly post anything which includes your

reasoning, logic or any part of your work to this forum, as doing so violates Monash

plagiarism/collusion rules and has significant academic penalties. Use private posts

or email your allocated tutor to raise questions that may reveal part of your

reasoning or solution.

● If any aspect of the assignment specifications is unclear or not explicitly addressed,

please ensure to verify with the teaching team and request clarification.

● In this Assessment, you must NOT use generative artificial intelligence (AI) to

generate any materials or content in relation to the assessment task.

5. Submission Requirements

The assignment must be submitted by Friday, 20 October 2023, 4:30 PM (AEDT).

Please start working on your assignment as soon as you can.

The following files are to be submitted on Moodle:

● The .py files that you created to implement your assignment (i.e., code and

documentation). Note that you should properly name these files to make sure their

usage is self-explanatory.

● An instruction file that explains the usage of the program. Name the file

ass3_manual_[studentID].pdf. The instruction file should be coherent and concise,

and should not be more than 2 pages in length.

The above files must be compressed to a .zip file named ass3_StudentID.zip and submitted

via Moodle. The .py files must also have been pushed to your remote repository (at FIT

GitLab server) with an appropriate history as you develop your solutions. Please ensure your

commit messages are meaningful. You are NOT required to push the history of the

instruction file to the FIT GitLab server. DO NOT push the .zip file.

● Please note four pushes is a minimum, in practice we would expect significantly

more. All commits must include a meaningful commit message which clearly

describes what the particular commit is about.

● No submissions will be accepted via email.

● Please note we cannot mark any work on the GitLab Server. Therefore you need to

ensure that you submit correctly via Moodle since it is only in this process that you

complete the required student declaration, without which work cannot be assessed.

● It is your responsibility to ENSURE that the submitted files are the correct files. We

strongly recommend after uploading a submission, and prior to actually submitting in

Moodle, that you download the submission and double-check its contents.

● Please carefully read the documentation under the “Special Consideration” and

"Assignment Task Submission" on the Moodle Assessments page, which covers

things such as extensions, correct submission, and resubmission.

● Please note, if you need to resubmit, you cannot depend on your tutors' availability,

for this reason, please be VERY CAREFUL with your submission. It is strongly

recommended that you submit several hours before due to avoid such issues.

● There are no restrictions on creating extra functions. Do NOT create redundant

functions/methods.

● Marks will be deducted for any of these requirements that are not strictly complied

with.

6. Academic Integrity

Students are expected to be familiar with the University Academic Integrity Policy and are

particularly reminded of the following:

Section 1.9:

Students are responsible for their own good academic practice and must:

● undertake their studies and research responsibly and with honesty and integrity;

● credit the work of others and seek permission to use that work where required;

● not plagiarise, cheat or falsify their work;

● ensure that their work is not falsified;

● not resubmit any assessment they have previously submitted, without the

permission of the chief examiner; appropriately acknowledge the work of others;

● take reasonable steps to ensure that other students are unable to copy or misuse

their work; and

● be aware of and comply with University regulations, policies and procedures relating

to academic integrity.

and Section 2.9:

Unauthorised distribution of course-related materials: Students are not permitted to share,

sell or pass on to another person or entity external to Monash:

2.9.1 any course material produced by Monash University (such as lecture slides, lecture

recordings, class handouts, assessment requirements, examination questions; excluding

Handbook entries) as this is a breach of the Copyright Compliance Policy and such conduct

may be a copyright law infringement subject to legal action; or

2.9.2 any course-related material produced by students themselves or other students (such

as class notes, past assignments), nor to receive such material, without the permission of

the chief examiner. The penalties for breaches of academic misconduct include

● a zero mark for the assessment task

● a zero mark for the unit

● suspension from the course

● exclusion from the University.

Where a penalty or disciplinary action is applied, the outcome is recorded and kept for seven

years, or for 15 years if the penalty was excluded.

if you don’t feel confident with your English.

● Talk to English Connect: https://www.monash.edu/english-connect

8.2. Study skills

If you feel like you just don’t have enough time to do everything you need to, maybe you just

need a new approach.

● Talk to a learning skills advisor: https://www.monash.edu/library/skills/contacts

8.3. Things are tough right now

Everyone needs to talk to someone at some point in their life, no judgement here.

● Talk to a counsellor: https://www.monash.edu/health/counselling/appointments

(friendly, approachable, confidential, free)

8.4. Things in the unit don’t make sense

Even if you’re not quite sure what to ask about, if you’re not sure you won’t be alone, it’s

always better to ask.

● Ask in Ed

● Attend a consultation

8.5. I don’t know what I need

Everyone at Monash University is here to help you. If things are tough now they won’t

magically get better by themselves. Even if you don’t exactly know, come and talk with us

and we’ll figure it out. We can either help you ourselves or at least point you in the right

direction.
