Just basic organisation. I accidently created flicker.py at the
repositories root. I meant to create it in 'src'. I'd already pushed
the commit before I spotted my mistake hence the 'mess' in the git
history.
The code in this file is mostly to get the ball moving in this
repository. This file opens the
'light-meter-sample-readings-23-04-2021-ritherdon.csv' file and
tallies-up the number of requests per second groups. After that, it
writes the results to 23-04-2021-readings-per-sec.csv.
As an example (to help explain), it counts and stores how many times
the light meter (factory1) took a reading at the rate of two times per
second. In this instance, there were 2955 instances of the light meter
taking two readings per second. This roughly equates to 10% of the
days readings was at a rate of two requests per second. 28% of the
time the light meter was recording at four requests per second, 18%
for one and 44% for three.
The main file I was using was too big and taking too long to
process. Whilst I got things moving in this repository, I removed a
lot of the data to help speed-up the development process. This should
be a temporary file and I expect this to be deleted at some point in
the future.
This is a .csv file and will be used and the initial test data this
project will aim to breakdown into a list of readings for each
second. At the moment, I'm being vague with my desciption of what
'breakdown' means here because this is just a proof-of-concept. I
don't expect this file to remain around for too long in the
repository.
