groupify

groupify is a Python package for automatically creating random groups in the classroom from a classlist.

NOTE: there is currently no way to ensure that Newton and Leibniz are not in the same group. They must cooperate if necessary.

Basic examples

Example 1

import groupify

classlist = "sample_class.txt"

groupify.create(
    classlist=classlist,
    group_size=4,
)

groupify.savefig(dirname="../figures/", fname="example_1.svg")

groupify.show()

This will generate the following groups (randomly):

Example 2

import groupify

classlist = "sample_class.txt"

groupify.create(
    classlist=classlist,
    group_size=3,
)

groupify.savefig(dirname="../figures/", fname="example_2.svg")

groupify.show()

This will generate the following groups (randomly):

Example 3

import groupify

classlist = "sample_class.txt"

groupify.create(
    classlist=classlist,
    group_size=2,
)

groupify.savefig(dirname="../figures/", fname="example_3.svg")

groupify.show()

This will generate the following groups (randomly):
