Wednesday 14th Novemeber - Extreme Programming

Today we had a second meeting, which was more of an extreme programming session. (in the sense there were 4 of us working on one module)

Firstly we generated a small amount of abstract pseudo code to outline the logical steps we needed to take to make a start on the solution. After this we fired up a python IDLE and started on our first step, which was reading in all of the HTML files.

We managed to create a loop to go through every folder and sub folder in the test data and look for HTML files. Where the loop found HTML files, beautiful soup would extract the text, which then be saved as a plain text file in its respective directory.


We were happy with the results of our first programming session.

Attendees: Stephen Brown, Andrew Hill, David Wijaya, Anupreet Kaur
