Inspiration

Realizing how little we have learned about financial literacy.

What it does

Simulates a bank account for the user where they can deposit, withdraw or transfer money between Chequing and Savings account. User can also choose to participate in a contest to win money, or go through a 'Life Event' where they may lose or gain money (depending on the event).

How we built it

Using Python.

Challenges we ran into

Ensuring we had a well-rounded code that anticipated and took care of when the user entered invalid input.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Being able to learn and implement new skills in Python (colored text in terminal output, dictionaries, classes). Creating and submitting a functioning project before the deadline.

What we learned

New features in Python that can be used in future projects (features previously named).

What's next for Banking Simulator

Including more features such as implementing credit card use, stocks and having varying interest rates depending on the financial institution chosen. Also having a Graphical User Interface (GUI) so that users can more easily navigate through the program.
