When it is required to create a lap timer using Python, the ‘time’ method is used. The number of laps is predefined, and a try catch block is defined, to start the lap timer.Below is a demonstration of the same −Example Live Demoimport time start_time=time.time() end_time=start_time lap_num=1 print("Click on ENTER to count laps.Press CTRL+C to stop") try:    while True:       input()       time_laps=round((time.time() - end_time), 2)       tot_time=round((time.time() - start_time), 2)       print("Lap No. "+str(lap_num))       print("Total Time: "+str(tot_time))       print("Lap Time: ...

When it is required to find the difference between the current time and a given time, a method can be defined, that takes the hours, minutes, and seconds as parameter. It then calculates the difference between two given times.Below is a demonstration of the same −Example Live Demodef difference_time(h_1, m_1, h_2, m_2):    t_1 = h_1 * 60 + m_1    t_2 = h_2 * 60 + m_2    if (t_1 == t_2):       print("The times are the same")       return    else:       diff = t_2-t_1    hours = (int(diff / ...

When it is required to find yesterday, today and tomorrow’s date with respect to current date, the current time is determined, and a method is used (in built) that helps find previous day and next day’s dates.Below is a demonstration of the same −Example Live Demofrom datetime import datetime, timedelta present = datetime.now() yesterday = present - timedelta(1) tomorrow = present + timedelta(1) print("Yesterday was :") print(yesterday.strftime('%d-%m-%Y')) print("Today is :") print(present.strftime('%d-%m-%Y')) print("Tomorrow would be :") print(tomorrow.strftime('%d-%m-%Y'))OutputYesterday was : 05-04-2021 Today is : 06-04-2021 Tomorrow would be : 07-04-2021ExplanationThe required packages are imported into the environment.The current date is determined ...

When it is required to print the pattern of the letter ‘G’ using ‘*’, a method can be defined, and nested loop can be used to iterate through the numbers and print ‘*” to form a ‘G’ pattern.Below is a demonstration of the same −Exampledef display_pattern(my_line):    my_pattern=""    for i in range(0, my_line):       for j in range(0, my_line):          if ((j == 1 and I != 0 and I != my_line-1) or ((I == 0 or I == my_line-1) and j > 1 and j < my_line-2) or (I == ((my_line-1)/2) and j ...

When it is required to print the fibonacci sequence using the method of recursion, a method can be declared that calls the same method again and again until a base value is reached.Below is a demonstration of the same −Example Live Demodef fibonacci_recursion(my_val):    if my_val
