- Solutions (haha, no)
Note: Windows users may have to use \ instead of /.
- Clone the repository.
git clone [email protected]:LutherCS/aads-class-pub.git- Get updates.
git pull origin main- Create and activate Python virtual environment
sudo apt-get install python3.12-venv
python3.12 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate- Specify PYTHONPATH in .env
PYTHONPATH=.Note that .env is excluded from version control and has to be added to each copy of the repository. Also, this step may not be necessary.
- Install pythonds3 to use textbook implementations of various data structures and algorithms.
python3 -m pip install -U pythonds3- Optional: Install linters pylint and mypy.
python3 -m pip install -U pylint mypy- Optional: Install formatter black.
python3 -m pip install -U black- Install testing framework pytest and pytest-timeout plugin.
python3 -m pip install -U pytest pytest-timeout- Install colorama that is used to highlight output.
python3 -m pip install -U colorama- Run a project
python3 src/projects/module/file.py- Test a project.
python3 -m pytest tests/projects/module/test_file.py- Check code coverage
python3 -m pytest --cov tests/- Generate the presentation
pandoc -s -i --slide-level=2 -t revealjs topic.md -o topic.html- Prepare the assignment
Note: module name (hello), file name (hello_main), and function name (greet_by_name) don't have to match.
- Edit src/exercises/hello/description.md.
- Edit src/exercises/hello/hello_main.py.
- Edit tests/exercises/hello/test_hello.py.
