Answer:
- def getCharacterForward(char, key):
- charList = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
-
- if(len(char) > 1):
- return None
- elif(not isinstance(key, int)):
- return -1
- else:
- index = charList.find(char)
- if(index + key <= 25):
- return charList[index + key]
- else:
- return charList[(index + key)% 26]
-
- print(getCharacterForward("C", 4))
- print(getCharacterForward("X", 4))
Explanation:
Firstly, define a charList that includes all uppercase alphabets (Line 2). We presume this program will only handle uppercase characters.
Follow the question requirement and define necessary input validation such as checking if the char is a single character (Line 4). We can do the validation by checking if the length of the char is more than 1, if so, this is not a single character and should return None (Line 5). Next, validate the key by using isinstance function to see if this is an integer. If this is not an integer return -1 (Line 6 - 7).
Otherwise, the program will proceed to find the index of char in the charList using find method (Line 9). Next, we can add the key to index and use the result value to get forwarded character from the charList and return it as output (Line 11).
However, we need to deal a situation that the char is found at close end of the charList and the forward key steps will be out of range of alphabet list. For example the char is X and the key is 4, the four steps forward will result in out of range error. To handle this situation, we can move the last two forward steps from the starting point of the charList. So X move forward 4 will become B. We can implement this logic by having index + key modulus by 26 (Line 13).
We can test the function will passing two sample set of arguments (Line 15 - 16) and we shall get the output as follows:
G
B
Answer: Please see below as the answer is self-explanatory
Explanation:
In a telephone system, we call signaling to all signals that are originated within a telephony circuit, that are not part of the conversation between the calling parties.
We include in this broad category, the signal generated by the calling party when he picks up the phone, the call tone sent to him by the switch (or the busy tone if the call can't be established due to blocking), the digits that identify the called party, the ringing signal that informs the called party that someone is trying to reach him for a call, among others like are defined in the SS7 or the different 2G/3G/4G Cellular standards.
The importance of the signalling is pretty obvious; without these signals, it will be virtually impossible to set up a connection between the two parties.
