Code Snippet

#TASK: Create a course-teacher program
#---1-create a dictionary that stores the names of three teachers and three courses
#---2-go straight to a login screen, where a user is asked: "What course are you doing?"
#---3 -the program responds by telling them which wonderful teacher they will have for that particular course

#EXTENSION: Create a main menu which allows a user to select STUDENT or TEACHER
#if STUDENT _ go to the login screen (as above, where they are asked for a course name, and a teacher is returned)
#ifTEACHER  _go to a teacher screen where additional courses and teachers can be added to the program

teachers_courses={"Computing":"Mrs Curious Egg","History":"Mr Knowitall Feather","Maths":"Mr CalcConfetti Purpose Esquire"}
