Chapter 15: Applied Computational Thinking Problems

In this chapter, we will be providing examples in multiple areas for applications of the Python programming language and computational thinking. We will be exploring multiple areas, such as humanities, linguistics, cryptography, and more. We will use what we've learned so far about computational thinking and the Python programming language to do the following:

  • Analyze historical speeches
  • Write stories
  • Calculate text readability
  • Find the most efficient route
  • Implement cryptography
  • Implement cybersecurity
  • Create a chatbot

This chapter is unlike the others, as we will be focused exclusively on presenting the problems and providing algorithmic solutions after evaluating each scenario.
