Iterating Over Data Challenge

This repository is the class activity for Iterating Over Data in Unit 1.

Instructions

Start by cloning this repository. After setting up your virtual environment and installing required packages (see instructions below) as a group you should:

• Look at the provided function stub
• Look at the provided tests
• Implement the functions to make the tests pass
• The first 3 functions build on each other.
  • Consider using each previous function to help build the next!
• The 4th function is there for whimsy, but it can still be tricky!

The first is done in class together.

Getting Started

1. In Github click on the green "Code" button in Github and then copy the URL. This will allow you to download a copy of this project into your projects folder. This command makes a new folder called Iterating-Over-Data-Challenge, and then puts the project into this new folder.

After copying the URL, run the following command in your terminal:

$ git clone <paste your copied URL here>

Use ls to confirm there's a new project folder

1. Move your location into this project folder

$ cd Iterating-Over-Data-Challenge

2. Create a virtual environment named venv for this project:

$ python3 -m venv venv

3. Activate this environment:

$ source venv/bin/activate

Verify that you're in a python3 virtual environment by running:

• $ python --version should output a Python 3 version
• $ pip --version should output that it is working with Python 3

4. Install dependencies once at the beginning of this project while your virtual environment is activated. Note that (venv) is not part of the command below that you need to run.

$ (venv) pip install -r requirements.txt

5. After installing dependencies, use the following command to run your tests:

$ (venv) pytest

You should see 2 failed test and 8 skipped tests. Comment out the skip decorators (@pytest.mark.skip) located above the skipped to tests to have them run.
