A quickie count of Texas Death Row using HTML parsing. The first of a few approaches at this topic.

Requirements ¶

Basically, pass the tests!

I expect your Github repo at compciv-2018-SUNETID repo to have the following subfolder:

compciv-2018-SUNETID/week-05/txdeathrow_check/

On this subfolder’s page, I would expect the file tree to look like this:

└── checker.py
└── data_helper.py

(note that data_helper.py is given to you as a file to include in your homework directory)

If I were to clone your repo onto my own computer, e.g.

$ git clone https://github.com/GITHUBID/compciv-2018-SUNETID.git

I would expect your homework subfolder to look like this:

compciv-2018-SUNETID/
└── week-05/
    └── txdeathrow_check/
        └── checker.py
        └── data_helper.py

(note that data_helper.py is given to you as a file to include in your homework directory)

Creating the directory and making it your current working directory:

$ cd ~/Desktop/compciv-2018-SUNETID
$ mkdir week-05
$ mkdir week-05/txdeathrow_check
$ cd week-05/txdeathrow_check

The repo has a section on the curl commands for downloading the skeleton and test files:
