👋 Hi, I’m Divan Gerber
🎯 Career Goal: Aspiring Cybersecurity Engineer with a focus on Python scripting & automation for security.
💻 Currently building hands-on projects while completing Python for Cybersecurity courses & tutorials.
- Programming: Python (beginner–intermediate, applied to cybersecurity automation)
- Cybersecurity Tools: Wireshark, Nmap, Vanta (automation & compliance)
- Operating Systems: Linux (basic administration, shell scripting), Windows
- Version Control: Git, GitHub
A beginner Python project simulating a point-of-sale system.
- Features conditional logic, input handling, price calculation, and quantity multiplication.
- Demonstrates Python fundamentals (variables, if/else, string formatting).
Code Example:
menu = ["Black Coffee", "Espresso", "Latte", "Cappucino", "Frappucino"]
print("Hello, welcome to the Coffee Emporium!!!")
name = input("What is your name?\n")
if name == "Divan":
evil_status = input("Are you evil?\n").strip().lower()
if evil_status == "yes":
print("I am sorry but you are not welcome here")
exit()
else:
print("Oh, so you are one of those good Divans. Welcome!!!")
else:
print(f"Hello {name}. Thank you for coming in today.\n")
print(f"What would you like today? On our menu we have: {', '.join(menu)}")
order = input().title().strip()
quantity = int(input("How many would you like?\n"))
prices = {
"Frappucino": 13,
"Black Coffee": 3,
"Espresso": 5,
"Cappucino": 10,
"Latte": 9
}
if order in prices:
price = prices[order]
if order == "Latte":
latte_order = input("Do you want extra whipped cream? \n").strip().lower()
if latte_order == "yes":
price = 13
else:
print("I am sorry, we don't have that here today")
exit()
total = price * quantity
print(f"That is great. Your price is: ${total}")
print(f"We will have your {quantity} cups of {order} ready shortly. Have a great day!")
