Steganography in Python and Scripty Fun PowerShell

see attached files for assignment information.

Assignment Part 1
Steganography in Python
Steganography is the process of hiding data within a photo, video, or audio file. This week, we
will use code from the web to create and then improve a steganography algorithm. We will be
introducing GUI user prompts to your code.
Part I: Stego with Python

Python: Use PyCharm
o Reference the article Image Based Steganography Using Python and copy the
code from there into PyCharm.
o For Python, create a new project and name it Stego. Create a new Python file
called StegoPython.py
o Don’t forget to add your header and include a reference to the website.
As you progress through the assignment, you will write simple and compound conditions
within the programming language.
You may need to click into the lower pane before you can answer the questions.
Assuming the code runs, what are the feature differences between the Stego Python
and Stego PowerShell? (Address at least 3, in detail.)
Since this code already has prompts, we only need to change the prompts to GUI
prompts.
o You can prompt AI to change the code to add prompts.
o Be aware that AI frequently misses details.
o You can zoom in on the prompts within the existing code (check main()) and see
if you can ask the AI or Google for GUI equivalents.
o You can zoom in further to the specific lines of code and ask AI or Google for GUI
equivalents.
o You can reference code in another language and research the equivalent in
another language.
Did it work properly? If not, perhaps try isolating the user prompt code and asking the
AI to change that.
Make sure that you add the appropriate imports at the top of the code.
Keep trying. As you work through this process:
o You can tell the AI to regenerate the code if you don’t understand.
o You can ask the AI to add comments to code to help you understand.
o You can always research on Google.
o You can use the PowerShell code to ask “what’s the equivalent of PowerShell’s
code in Python?”
Once you have gotten the code to work, take screenshots of all your code and any GUI
dialog boxes that open as a result of your code.
In a Microsoft Word document, submit at least 7 screenshots and your
answers to the 4 questions.

Assignment Part 2
Scripty Fun PowerShell
Using Powershell, demonstrate your proficiency in the use of scripting languages to recreate a
simple script that interests you in
Ensure that your code you write includes GUI elements, user interaction, simple linear and coding
loops, or standalone features.
Within a single Microsoft Word document, create a single-column, 6-row table.
