Walkthrough

A new utility module named simple_utils.py has been added. It introduces three functions: one for reversing a string, another for counting words in a sentence, and a third for converting Celsius temperatures to Fahrenheit. The implementations are direct and do not involve complex logic or error handling. Additionally, a minor formatting change was made by adding an empty line in tester.py.

Poem

In the warren, code hops anew,
With strings reversed and numbers too.
Words are counted, temps take flight,
From Celsius chill to Fahrenheit.
Simple tools for every bunny’s quest—
These handy helpers pass the test!

Impact Analysis

Added new utility module with string and temperature helper functions

ℹ️ Low 🔗 Impacts API

Introduces a new module simple_utils.py providing three additional utility functions—reverse_string, count_words, and celsius_to_fahrenheit—without altering any existing functionality or APIs.

Review the implementations for proper input validation, potential edge-case handling (e.g., empty or non-string inputs), and ensure documentation is updated to reflect the new utilities.

Test each function with typical inputs and edge cases: empty strings, punctuation, mixed whitespace for count_words, and boundary temperature values (negative, high extremes) for celsius_to_fahrenheit.

Add input validation and improve documentation.

The implementation is correct and Pythonic, but consider adding input validation to handle edge cases like None values or non-string types.

In simple_utils.py around lines 3 to 5, the reverse_string function lacks input

function to ensure the input is a string and raise a TypeError if not. Also,
update the docstring to specify the expected input type and mention that a
TypeError will be raised for invalid inputs.

Add documentation, input validation, and type hints.

The conversion formula is mathematically correct, but the function needs documentation and input validation for robustness.

@coderabbitai Why do all of these functions need docstrings? Isn't it obvious enough what they do?

🧩 Analysis chain

I need to examine the actual code to give you a thoughtful response about the docstring requirements.


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Find and examine the simple_utils.py file
fd "simple_utils.py" --exec cat {}

Length of output: 305


@HammerHam You make a fair point! Looking at your code, these function names are indeed very self-explanatory:

def reverse_string(text):
    """Reverses the characters in a string."""
    return text[::-1]

def count_words(sentence):
    return len(sentence.split())

def celsius_to_fahrenheit(celsius):
    return (celsius * 9/5) + 32

For simple utility functions like these, you're right that the function names clearly communicate their purpose. The implementations are straightforward single-line operations that don't really need explanation.

However, there's a slight inconsistency - reverse_string has a docstring while the others don't. For a cohesive codebase, you might consider either:

  1. Remove the existing docstring from reverse_string since all three functions are equally obvious
  2. Keep it minimal - the existing docstring is already quite concise and doesn't hurt

The most important thing is consistency within your codebase. If this is a personal project or internal utility where the function names are clear (which they are), minimal or no docstrings is perfectly reasonable. Docstrings become more valuable for complex functions, public APIs, or when you need to document edge cases, parameter types, or non-obvious behavior.

Your approach of self-documenting code through clear naming is actually a good practice!
