PyMoney

PyMoney is a personal expense & income tracker that runs entirely in the terminal. You tell it how much money you have, add records like breakfast -50, view them, delete them, and it remembers everything the next time you open it.

This is a project-based-learning exercise I did to learn the basics of Python.

Topics

• Input / Output
• Data Types & Strings
• Sequences, Sets & Dicts
• Conditionals & Loops
• Functions
• File Handling & Exceptions
• Recursion
• OOP
• Generators
• Standard Library

PyMoney01.py - the very first step

Three lines. Reads a starting balance and one record, adds them, prints the result. Already touches Input/Output, data types, and string splitting.

PyMoney02.py - the procedural era

This file stacks four small projects in one place (newest at the top, oldest at the bottom).

PyMoney03.py - the OOP rewrite (current version)

The whole program rebuilt around objects, adding the other topics:

• OOP
• Recursion
• Generators

New powers: categories, category-aware add, and a find command that totals everything under a category.
