[Test Templates]: Tracking Issue for Practice Exercises

[BethanyG]

Tracking issue for JinJa Test Templates. No rush, just something we should chip away at. 🙂

Noooooo! Don't put another checklist in front of me! 😆

[BethanyG]

You can ignore it....its to lite a 🔥 under my arse.

Also? Take it as a sign to cherry-pick the easy ones. I've taken pangram, leap, randrops, and darts, for starters.

Race you? (JOKING)

Race you? (JOKING)

Obviously, no race, no rush. I see this (at least the easy ones) as a bit of light relief when I need a break from more demanding content. For example, my current attempt to explain Gaussian, Binomial and Poisson distributions, and how/why to generate them.

[colinleach]

I've ticked off Zebra Puzzle, on the grounds that it only has 2 tests and this is unlikely to change!

That's actually kind of the problem with checklists for me... They're magnets for my procrastination!

I feel you. Ask me how many Python concept exercises and approaches are in my queue. Then ask me how much of the PyLadies website I've gotten done. And how much Rust I've learned..... #procrastinationdreamteam 😉

[colinleach]

Ask me how many Python concept exercises and approaches are in my queue

That would be tactless (and I kind of know!).

[BethanyG]

At least its all keeping me from eating the rest of the guacamole. That would straight-up kill me. 😆

[depial]

What's the plan with the OLD_test_files.R? Are we planning to keep them, or could we just start dropping those now that we seem to have things working?

[colinleach]

Dropping them seems best. Worst case, we could always recover them from older GitHub commits.

[BethanyG]

Care to do a "clean up" PR? I imagine it would be satisfying to delete all those! 😄

[depial]

That sounds like a fun last task for the evening!

One more bit of news: that template for triangles had to deal with floats in a vector, and there was no issue at all.
