Solution
Of course! Below is the solution
code for the Python assignment on 
the student attendance system:

```python
# Create an empty dictionary to 
# store student attendance
student_attendance = {}

# Function to mark attendance
def mark_attendance(student_id, status):
    if status.upper() == "P":
        student_attendance[student_id] = "Present"
        print("Attendance marked for student", student_id)
    elif status.upper() == "A":
        student_attendance[student_id] = "Absent"
        print("Attendance marked for student", student_id)
    else:
        print("Invalid attendance status. Please enter 'P' for Present or 'A' for Absent.")

# Function to display attendance
def display_attendance():
    print("Attendance:")
    for student_id, status in student_attendance.items():
        print("Student ID:", student_id, "- Status:", status)

# Main program
print("Student Attendance System\n")
while True:
    print("1. Mark Attendance")
    print("2. Display Attendance")
    print("3. Exit")
    
    choice = input("\nEnter your choice: ")
    
    if choice == "1":
        student_id = input("Enter student ID: ")
        attendance_status = input("Enter attendance status (P/A): ")
        mark_attendance(student_id, attendance_status)
    elif choice == "2":
        display_attendance()
    elif choice == "3":
        print("Goodbye!")
        break
    else:
        print("Invalid choice. Please select a valid option.")
```
