Create daily to-do lists with Python

To create a daily to-do list in Python, you can use simple data structures like lists or dictionaries. Here’s an example of how you can create a basic daily to-do list and interact with it (e.g., adding tasks, marking tasks as completed).

python
CopyEdit
# Daily To-Do List Program

# Create an empty list to store tasks
tasks = []

def display_tasks():
    print("nToday's To-Do List:")
    if not tasks:
        print("No tasks for today!")
    else:
        for idx, task in enumerate(tasks, 1):
            print(f"{idx}. {task['task']} - {'Done' if task['done'] else 'Pending'}")

def add_task():
    task = input("nEnter a task: ")
    tasks.append({'task': task, 'done': False})
    print(f"Task '{task}' added to your to-do list.")

def mark_task_done():
    display_tasks()
    try:
        task_num = int(input("nEnter the task number to mark as done: "))
        if 1 <= task_num <= len(tasks):
            tasks[task_num - 1]['done'] = True
            print(f"Task '{tasks[task_num - 1]['task']}' marked as done.")
        else:
            print("Invalid task number.")
    except ValueError:
        print("Please enter a valid task number.")

def remove_task():
    display_tasks()
    try:
        task_num = int(input("nEnter the task number to remove: "))
        if 1 <= task_num <= len(tasks):
            removed_task = tasks.pop(task_num - 1)
            print(f"Task '{removed_task['task']}' removed from your to-do list.")
        else:
            print("Invalid task number.")
    except ValueError:
        print("Please enter a valid task number.")

def main():
    while True:
        print("n--- Daily To-Do List ---")
        print("1. Display Tasks")
        print("2. Add Task")
        print("3. Mark Task as Done")
        print("4. Remove Task")
        print("5. Exit")

        try:
            choice = int(input("nEnter your choice: "))
            if choice == 1:
                display_tasks()
            elif choice == 2:
                add_task()
            elif choice == 3:
                mark_task_done()
            elif choice == 4:
                remove_task()
            elif choice == 5:
                print("Exiting. Have a productive day!")
                break
            else:
                print("Invalid choice, please choose a valid option.")
        except ValueError:
            print("Invalid input, please enter a number between 1 and 5.")

# Start the program
if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

How it works:

1. Tasks Storage: The tasks are stored as a list of dictionaries. Each dictionary contains the task and a done status.

2. Displaying Tasks: It shows the list of tasks with their status (done or pending).

3. Adding Tasks: The user can add new tasks by entering them through the console.

4. Marking Tasks as Done: The user can mark tasks as completed.

5. Removing Tasks: The user can remove tasks from the list.

How to Use:

• Run the script.

• You can choose to display, add, mark as done, or remove tasks.

• You can exit when you’re done.
