Dive into the world of Avatar: The Last Air Bender and learn Python through elemental bending! Create classes for Waterbending, Firebending, Earthbending, and Airbending, each with unique abilities. Your journey will involve mastering Python and OOP concepts, and passing tests inspired by the beloved series.
- Create and instantiate classes in Python.
- Build methods that perform functions tailored to their unique objects.
- Read Tests to understand Python.
- Use the
property()function and getters and setters to create properties and validate input. - Learn test-driven development, and enhance your classes with creative features to master the art of OOP in the Avatar world.
- Get to know the big world of python.
Your journey begins with coding challenges to create classes that embody these elements.
Each class represents a different element and character.
For example, you will craft a WaterBender class to encapsulate the abilities of a Water Bender like Katara.
Your quest is to pass a series of tests that validate your mastery of Python and OOP. These tests will evaluate your ability to create and instantiate classes, implement methods, and ensure that your code behaves as expected.
The test-driven development approach will guide your journey.
You'll start with failing tests and work your way
through each challenge until all tests are successfully passed.
To run the tests, use the noxfile
as explained here.
Along the way,
feel free to add your own creative features to enhance the experience.
For example: a base class, protected methods,
the signatures of the methods, and more.
But you must not break and/or change the tests, configs,
the noxfile.py, and the Poetry files.
Are you ready to embark on this exciting coding adventure in the world of Avatar: The Last Air Bender? Let's get started!
Happy coding, young Bender!
This project uses Poetry (version 1.7.1 or above),
nox, and many more tools.
So in this guide would guide you on how to prepare your environment.
You would need to install the tool Poetry first,
which you can can download from
here.
- Run the command:
poetry install- To create a new venv with all the project's dependencies. You can activate the venv's shell with the command:
poetry shell- If it doesn't work, just activate the venv yourself. You can read about it here.
If you want to, you should update the used libraries with the command:
poetry updateIf you need to make a bigger change (like updating a major), you should talk with your mentor first!
Now, to run the tests and check if you have finished the exercise,
you just need to run nox
(from the shell you have activated here):
noxwhat it does is that it runs the sessions defined at the
noxfile.py file, and there it's defined to run the tests.
You can view and/or use the outputs of the tests
from the created files or from your shell's stdout.
If you think there's a problem with the tests, or there's a problem with the configs or something else, you should talk with your mentor.
You can view the test coverage report as a nice web page at the generated file: html_cov/index.html
