Problem Set 2

Group project

This is a group project. You should work in groups of 2 to 4 (not alone and not more than 4). If this is a problem, please let me know ahead of time.

Please enter the names of the group members here:

1. Juan H Piloto
2. Vanessa Muhl
3. Danielle Bovie
4. Rebecca Molina

Due date

It is my hope that is can be turned in on Friday, May 22nd, but I will take it until May 26th at the latest.

The dataset

I have provided a dataset that you will use for this. The dataset and it's description are on the cluster as well as in github.

• The dataset is at: /ufrc/bsc4452/share/Class_Files/data/flights.May2017-Apr2018.csv
• The metadata (description of the data) is at: /ufrc/bsc4452/share/Class_Files/data/flights_metadata.md
  • It is also nicely rendered on github.

Instructions

The goal of this project is to write a Bash script that does the following:

1. Counts the number of flights that were delayed more than 15 minutes into or out of Gainesville, FL (airport code GNV) during the timeframe covered by the dataset. (2 points)

Grading: Your script counts total late/ontime flights, not just the GNV ones. 1.5pts.

2. Produce a table (text is fine) with the data to fill in this table (13 points):

GNV to:	Total flights	Total flights delayed (>15min)	Total flights delayed due to Weather
ATL	1476	262	108
CLT	476	90	57
MIA	205	33	19

3. Within a function, print a list of all unique airport codes contained in the dataset. (3 points)

Grading: Not a function; 2.5 3 pts (updated to be consistent with other groups)

4. Within a function list the cities in Florida that have airports in the dataset. (2 points)

**Grading: Also no a function but OK. 2 pts.

Bonus question: Asks for user input (see chapter 28) to enter either a airport code or city, state name and then calculates the number of flights as in question 1. (5 points extra credit)

Grading: +5 pts

To submit

You should submit your answer as one or more scripts in a git repository. Submit the link in Canvas.

You should start in Canvas, creating your group and then create the same group in github.

Be sure to edit this README.md file with the names of the group members.

Grading

For questions, 1, 3 and 4, I will mostly be looking for the right answer.

Your score on 1,3,4 (I'll fill this in when I grade):

For question 2, you will receive points for:

Rubric item	Points	Your score
Using github	1 point	1
Having at least one commit from each member of the team	2 points	2

Using functions correctly	2 points	0 pts. no functions
Using comments in code	2 points	1 pt, not comments, but clear
Using spacing to make code readable	2 points	2
