 Acknowledgement
It is with pleasure that I acknowledge my sincere
gratitude to our teacher, MS. ANJU SRIVASTAV who
taught and undertook the responsibility of teaching the
subject computer science. I have been greatly
benefited from her classes. I am especially indebted to
our principal MS.SUDHA SINGH who has always been a
source of encouragement and support and without
whose inspiration this project would not have been a
successful I would like to place record heartfelt thanks
to him. Finally, I would like to express my sincere
appreciation for all the other students for my batch

 Introduction
Project Title:
Interactive Student Data Collection Chatbot using Python and MySQL

Introduction:
With everything getting digital these days, even schools and colleges are moving towards
smarter ways of collecting student information. Instead of the usual boring forms, I thought
of creating something a bit more interactive and fun—a chatbot! This project is about
building a simple chatbot in Python that talks to students, asks them questions like name,
class, age, etc., and then stores all that info in a MySQL database.

The idea is to make data collection more friendly and less formal. The chatbot (I named it
PyBoi) acts like a cool assistant that guides the student step-by-step, makes sure they don’t
leave anything important blank, and even gives friendly messages when something's not
right. It also makes sure the same roll number doesn’t get added twice.

Objective:
The goal of this project is to build a chatbot that:

 Collects student information through conversation.

 Validates input (like checking if the name has only letters or if age is between 5 and
32).

 Stores everything in a MySQL database safely.

 Avoids duplicates by checking if a roll number already exists.

It’s especially useful for teachers or admins who want to collect student info quickly, without
using long forms or Google Sheets.

Technologies Used:

 Python – for coding the chatbot and handling the logic.

 MySQL – to store all the data in a proper, organized way.

 mysql-connector-python – to connect Python and MySQL.

Database Table:
The main table I used is called Info, and it has these columns:

 RollNo (Primary Key)

 Name

 Class
  Section

 PercentageClassX (only asked if class is more than 10)

 Age (only accepts 5 to 32)

 DOB

 Father’s Name

 Mother’s Name

 Number of Siblings

 Mobile Number

 Country

 State

 Stream (Science, Commerce, Arts, etc.)

Features:

 The chatbot chats with the student like a person, asking one question at a time.

 It doesn’t crash if someone enters something wrong—it shows a message and asks
again.

 If someone’s age is too young or too old (not a student), it tells them politely and
skips.

 It checks if the Roll No is already taken and avoids saving it again.

 It also gives some fun responses (like guessing nearby roll numbers or praising good
percentages).

Conclusion:
In the end, this chatbot makes student data collection smoother, faster, and a bit more
enjoyable. Instead of typing everything in a form, students just answer the bot. I learned a
lot about input validation, database connection, and handling errors while working on this.
In the future, I might try turning it into a web app or adding a simple GUI to make it even
better!
