You work for a spy agency for the city of Detroit, so your department is severely under-funded.
Your equipment cannot process graphics, so your home-base sends you ASCII maps of your targets' locations.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, it to be able to parse these maps, and derive X and Y coordinates from it.
- The maps can be any size.
- The X-axis starts at 0, and increases as it goes right.
- The Y-axis starts at 0, and decreases as it goes down.
Given the following map, the coordinates would be [0,0]
+==========+
|X*********|

Given the following map, the coordinates would be [1, -2]

Given the following map, the coordinates would be [6, -3]

Go through each file in the data directory and display the coordinates.
Then, keep track of the different coordinates and display the deltas. For example, if you had the following coordinates:
[0,0]
[0,-1]
[1,-1]
[0,-1]
You would display:
started
moved south by 1
moved east by 1
moved west by 1
- Fork
- Clone
- Turn on TravisCI for the fork by visiting https://travis-ci.org/profile/, clicking the "Sync now" button and scrolling down to find the repository to build.
- Create a new branch for your work using
git checkout -b v1 - Implement specs and code
- Push using
git push -u origin v1
This warmup can be completed multiple times to increase your comfort level with the material. To work on this from scratch, you can:
- Add an upstream remote that points to the original repo
git remote add upstream git@github.com:gSchool/operation-parse-coordinates.git - Fetch the latest from the upstream remote using
git fetch upstream - Create a new branch from the master branch of the upstream remote
git checkout -b v2 upstream/master - Implement specs and code
- Push using
git push -u origin v2
Each time you do the exercise, create a new branch. For example the 3rd time you do the exercise the branch name will be v3 instead of v2.
