Write an anagram program that takes someone's name and uses all the letters to create a phrase, for instance:
Osama Bin Laden --> 'bad neon salami'
George W Bush --> 'whose bugger'
George Bush --> 'he bugs Gore'
Tony Blair --> 'bony trail'
Ronald Reagan --> 'loan arranged'
David Letterman --> 'nerd amid late TV'
Elvis --> 'lives'
... beyond names:
The Morse Code --> Here Come Dots
Slot Machines --> Cash Lost in'em
Mother-in-law --> Woman Hitler
Statue of Liberty --> Built to Stay Free
New York Times --> Monkey writes
eleven plus two --> twelve plus one
You could also write a Python program that checks the above anagrams for correctness.

George W Bush --> 'whose bugger'

Tony Blair --> 'bony trail'

Write program that prints the numbers from 1 to 100. But for multiples of three print “Fizz” instead of the number, and for the multiples of five print “Buzz”. For numbers which are multiples of both three and five print “FizzBuzz”.

Topic: Encryption
#1 Write a program that that encrypts a string based on a alphanumeric key input by the user (or a number for a step encrypt program).
#2 enhance your program in #1 so that is the encrypted output is different every time, but can still be decrypted with the key.
#3 Modify the program in #2 so that it can handle private/public keys.
#4Write a script that can generate private and public keys for use with #3
#5 Write a program that can look for patterns in and break simple encryptions. Test it on #1, #2 and #3 (but do not write it based on your knowledge of howw they work). Be sure to set timouts, ie., if your loops exceed a certain amount of runs, force to program to stop, instead of hanging.
In the above:
Think of an innovative way to use dictionaries in any/all.
the random module will help in #2. But using it incorrectly will yield an undesired result. A bit of thinking and planning would be required. Perhaps there is way way to do this without random. Can you think of it?
char() and ord() functions in python are useful.
Comment your code, and use meaningful variable names. You will soon find that your program will swell at a rapid rate and otherwise understanding will be difficult. It is also a good practise to employ regardless what what you program

I am having a problem with the green highlighted
items that appear in your text
How do I get " what looks like a magnifying glass
followed by code" and "what looks like a magnifying glass followed by keywords"
I still don't understand how to put that in my code. How is it done? Do I have to have some special test tool?

That is one of the more nauseating features added by DaniWeb. It brings up unwanted advertisement from certain words.
Editor's note ...

Write a Python program that asks the user a series of multiple choice questions about preferences (hair, eyes, figure, food, car, vacation, music, sport, fun etc.), and then picks a date from a number of celebreties. You might have to do some googling.
