A solution to the Hell Triangle Challenge

Hell-Triangle-Challenge

• Introduction

  • This project is a solution to "Hell Triangle - Challenge" problem explained in .\doc\HellsTriangle.pdf
  • This project was designed using the python program language, their benefits to this project include:
    • Ease to create classes
    • The slice functionality turn on easy the manipulation of arrays
    • Ease to manipulate test cases using PyUnit framework

• Using the code

  • To use this solution is necessary import the content of it using the file "HellsTriangle.py"
  • Create an object instance using "HellsTriangle" constructor
  • To set up the inputs, using the constructor or calling the function "setTriangle", use the list of lists structure representing a triangle (more explainations in .\doc\HellsTriangle.pdf)
  • To get the max total result call the "getMaxTotal" function

• Test cases

  • The test cases were done using the PyUnit framework because of the facilities to generate simple case tests

  • Add

    • To add more test cases is necessary define:
      • Name of the test case, always beginning with "test" string
      • The input of the test case
      • The right answer of that test case
      • Add a new test case using the previous definitions as exemplified in the file .\src\HellsTriangleTests.py

  • Run

    • To run the defined test cases just run the command line: "python3 HellTriangleTests.py"
    • To another versions of python with the library "unittest" available (python version > 2.1) "python HellTriangleTests.py"
