Project Timeline

Week 1 (May 14 - May 19)

Week 1 was used to set up the project and define the structure of the code that will be necessary to get to Milestone 1. For now, code is maintained in src/stats/utils.

Summary:

• Created a basic Python project using pipenv;
• Defined an initial set of classes and functions to outline code structure (code available in the sem folder);
• A detailed report can be found in the dev.txt file in the project repository.
