Python-Formmative-Assesment

Time Limit: 90 Minutes Topic: Python Fundamentals, Logic & Test Driven Development (TDD)

📋 Overview

Welcome to the System Check assessment. You have been tasked with building the logic for a Flight Ticket Parser and a Nuclear Reactor Safety Monitor.

This is an invigilated assessment. You are required to demonstrate not just your ability to write code, but your ability to write tests for that code.

📂 File Structure

• system_check.py 📝 (EDIT THIS)
  • This file contains the empty functions you need to complete.
  • Do not rename any functions or the file itself.
• test_reactor.py 🆕 (CREATE THIS)
  • You must create this file from scratch.
  • This file will contain the Unit Tests for Question 5.

🚀 Instructions

Section A: Flight Data Parsing (Questions 1-3)

Open system_check.py. You will need to parse string data from flight tickets.

• Warning: The data is not always the same length! You cannot use fixed indices (e.g., text[0:5]). You must logically find the hyphens -.

Section B: Algorithmic Logic (Question 4)

Implement the logic for determining a Leap Year. This requires nested or chained modulo (%) operators.

Section C: The Reactor Monitor (Question 5)

This section requires Test Driven Development (TDD).

1. Read the requirements for reactor_status in system_check.py.
2. BEFORE you write the logic, create a new file named test_reactor.py.
3. Implement the TestReactor class and write tests for all scenarios (Critical, Warning, Normal, etc.).
4. Once your tests are written, go back to system_check.py and write the code to pass them.

🧪 How to Run Your Tests

To verify your Reactor Logic, run your test file:

python test_reactor.py
