Question

Write a program to print the lyrics of the song "Old MacDonald." Your program should print the lyrics for five different animals, similar to the verse below. Old MacDonald had a farm, Ee-igh, Ee-igh, Oh! And on that farm he had a cow, Ee-igh, Ee-igh, Oh! With a moo, moo here and a moo, moo there. Here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo, moo. Old MacDonald had a farm, Ee-igh, Ee-igh, Oh! You are going to create a function for each of the moving parts of this song: (1) eieio, (2) refrain (Old MacDonald had a farm), (3) hada (And on that farm he had a), (4) witha (make the sounds), (5) verse You will then loop in the main function to read through a list of animals and their sounds. 1. Add comments at the top with file name: lab6_animal_YourLastName.py, your name, date, course section, etc. 2. Make sure to have the correct indentation for functions. Don't copy/paste the following codes, which will cause format errors within Python. Just type them one by one carefully. 3. Create the main function: def main(): for a,n in [("cow", "moo"), ("pig", "oink"), ("horse", "nay"), ("sheep", "baa"), ("chicken", "cluck"): #Note: This is all on one line verse(a, n)

Explanation / Answer

    refrain()

def refrain():
    print "old MacDonald had a farm,",eieio()

def eieio():

def witha(noise):
    noisecomma = noise+","
    noise2 = noisecomma+" "+noise
    print "With",noise2,"here and a",noise2,"there."
