Problem:

Write a program that constitutes the following two commands:

1)greet : which will say "Hi" to the user.

2)stock : which will print the cureent stock value.

#The above commands are to be executed using the requests library.

Program-Code

from cmd2 import Cmd
from getpass import getuser
import sys
import requests

__version__ = '0.1'

class Application(Cmd):
    """
   The main Application class

   """

    def __init__(self):
        Cmd.__init__(self)

    def do_hello(self, line):
        print "Hello:", line

    def do_greet(self,line):
        print "Hi %s :)" %(getuser())

    def do_stock(self,line):
        r=requests.get('http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quote.csv?s='+line+'&f=l1')
        data=r.text
        print data

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = Application()
    app.cmdloop()

Explanation of the code

In the code, the greet function uses the getuser() in order to get the name of the user, and displays "Hi <username>" as output.

And the stock function uses the requests.get() function to get the latest value of the stock-value, and further prints the value on taking the nasdaq symbol as input.
