}- Submitted is the JSON submitted to the server.
- The Response code is logged at the bottom.
- Errors are logged to stderr
Amount of Time Spent
To start I would like to say this took me over two hours. It was really not that difficult of a task but I didn't want to simply write a tiny script that didn't check errors and wasn't organized well. I spent a good amount of my time trying to design a system that I felt was easy to understand. I probably spent a total of 4 hours with most of that time going toward refactoring logic to files and functions.
Big O
The program is O(N) where N is the number of data points I was given. I iterate through a constant number of lists all of size N. The house keeping I do in these iterations are all constant in time complexity.
Interesting Stuff
My solution consists of three separate modules. The first is a Main.py which runs the program at a high level and communicates to the server. The next module is User.py which consists of a class called User that encapsulates everything I think it means to be a User. I made logins a property of each User and created a dictionary that allows Users to be flagged if they visited the site in April. Lastly ApiFunctions.py encapsulates the program logic. The functions defined inside the module both build a dict of Users and query the dict to find out all the different statistics about Users.
Weird Stuff
- I didn't want to use any external libraries to avoid a requirements file.
- Because of this first constraint I stumbled into an odd problem. Check out the function inside User called timeZoneColonFix(). Look into the link I provided there. The short of the long is the timestamp strings that were provided in the api data do not follow the datetime standard in python3.
I really had fun doing this so I hope you enjoy my code. 😎
