9.2.3. Task 3

Learning Objectives

• Convert a binary message into readable text.

Task Instructions

Save the flowcharts for each of your tasks in tp1_team_teamnumber.pdf You will also need to include these flowcharts in your final report.

1. Write Python code that converts a binary string into ASCII text. Each character in the message is represented by 8 bits (1 byte). Convert each byte into its corresponding ASCII character and append it to a final message string. Name this program tp1_team_3_teamnumber.py.

   Sample Output

   Use the values in Table 9.18 below to test your program.

   Table 9.18 Test Cases

   Case	binary text
   1	0100100001100101011011000110110001101111
   2	0111011101101111011100100110110001100100

   Ensure your program’s output matches the provided samples exactly. This includes all characters, white space, and punctuation. In the samples, user input is highlighted like this for clarity, but your program should not highlight user input in this way.

   Case 1 Sample Output

   $ python3 tp1_team_3_teamnumber.py Enter the binary message: 0100100001100101011011000110110001101111 Converted Text: Hello

   Case 2 Sample Output

   $ python3 tp1_team_3_teamnumber.py Enter the binary message: 0111011101101111011100100110110001100100 Converted Text: world

2. Integrate this code into the LSB extraction code from Task 2 to extract and display the hidden message in a human-readable format. Name this program tp1_team_teamnumber.py.

   Sample Output

   Use the values in Table 9.19 below to test your program.

   Table 9.19 Test Cases

   Case	image_path	start_seq	end_seq
   1	ref_col_p.png	007	700
   2	ref_gry_p.png	007	700
   3	ref_gry_p.png	222	333

   Ensure your program’s output matches the provided samples exactly. This includes all characters, white space, and punctuation. In the samples, user input is highlighted like this for clarity, but your program should not highlight user input in this way.

   Case 1 Sample Output

   $ python3 tp1_team_teamnumber.py Enter the path of the image you want to load: ref_col_p.png Enter the start sequence: 007 Enter the end sequence: 700 Below is the img_array output of ref_col_p.png: Extracted Message: 0100110001010101010000110100101101011001 Converted Text: LUCKY

   Case 2 Sample Output

   $ python3 tp1_team_teamnumber.py Enter the path of the image you want to load: ref_gry_p.png Enter the start sequence: 007 Enter the end sequence: 700 Below is the img_array output of ref_gry_p.png: Extracted Message: 0100100001000101010011000100110001001111 Converted Text: HELLO

   Case 3 Sample Output

   $ python3 tp1_team_teamnumber.py Enter the path of the image you want to load: ref_gry_p.png Enter the start sequence: 222 Enter the end sequence: 333 Below is the img_array output of ref_gry_p.png: Start or end sequence not found in the image.
