11th grade retreat
This is a problem set. Some of these are easy, others are far more difficult. The purpose of these problems sets are:
- to build your skill applying computational thinking to a problem
- to assess your knowledge and skills of different programming practices
What is this problem set trying to do[edit]
This is example problem set. In this example we are learning about lists, conditionals, and processing user input.
The Problem[edit]
The 11th grade has a two-day retreat. This retreat will help them learn about CAS (Creativity, activity, service). There are 8 activities for the 11th grade retreat. Each activity can only have 10 students. Each student can make a primary request and a secondary request.
Your solution must make the best possible match for all students. An example of the INPUT data is provided below:
#
# in the example below:
# student 1 wants to be in activity 4 and 5
# student 2 wants to be in activity 7 and 8
# and so on...
#
choices={"1":"4,5",
"2":"7,8"
"3":"1,6"
"4":"2,4"}
Unit Tests[edit]
If you accept the choices as input, your program must output (as an example):
#
# in the example below, activity 1 has students 1,5,7,8,9,12,17 and 75 (8 students)
#
activities = {
"1":"1,5,7,8,9,12,17,75",
"2":"3,22,29,33,31,45,50,80"}

Demonstrate
How you will be assessed[edit]
Your solution will be graded using the following axis:
Scope
- To what extent does your code implement the features required by our specification?
- To what extent is there evidence of effort?
Correctness
- To what extent did your code meet specifications?
- To what extent did your code meet unit tests?
- To what extent is your code free of bugs?
Design
- To what extent is your code written well (i.e. clearly, efficiently, elegantly, and/or logically)?
- To what extent is your code eliminating repetition?
- To what extent is your code using functions appropriately?
Style
- To what extent is your code readable?
- To what extent is your code commented?
- To what extent are your variables well named?
- To what extent do you adhere to style guide?
