Python Math: Calculate the area of sector

Python Math: Exercise-8 with Solution

Write a Python program to calculate the area of a sector.
Note: A circular sector or circle sector, is the portion of a disk enclosed by two radii and an arc, where the smaller area is known as the minor sector and the larger being the major sector.

Sample Solution:-

Python Code:

def sectorarea():
    pi=22/7
    radius = float(input('Radius of Circle: '))
    angle = float(input('angle measure: '))
    if angle >= 360:
        print("Angle is not possible")
        return
    sur_area = (pi*radius**2) * (angle/360)
    print("Sector Area: ", sur_area)

sectorarea()

Sample Output:

Radius of Circle: 4                                                                                           
angle measure: 45                                                                                             
Sector Area:  6.285714285714286

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

  • The os and os.path modules.
  • The __file__ constant
  • os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
  • os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
  • os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
  • os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
