The file contains measurement of a (fake) free fall experiment. +1. Now that you know what the file contains, pipe the output to tools that let you remove the first 6 and last 2 lines. Afterwards, extract the first (measured height) and third column (measured time). +1. Write a small Python that processes the output of the command from the last step. Since this book is not about programming in Python or plotting, the simple code to process the output of the variable `h_t` is given below: + + ``` + #!/usr/bin/env python3 + + import matplotlib.pyplot as plt + + (...) + + h_values = [] + t_values = [] + + for line in h_t.strip().split("\n"): + h, t = line.strip().split(",") + h_values.append(h) + t_values.append(t) + + plt.plot(h_values, t_values) + plt.xlabel("h") + plt.ylabel("t") + plt.savefig("h_t.pdf") + ``` + + Use the command that you did write in the last step to extract the two columns and save the output in a variable called `h_t` in the `(...)` block. +1. Save the Python script into a file in an empty directory called `bash_python_harmony`. +1. Use `poetry` to initialize an environment in the directory `bash_python_harmony`. +1. Use `poetry` to add the package `matplotlib` to the environment. +1. Use `poetry shell` to enter the environment. +1. Run the script and check the generated PDF file `h_t.pdf`. + ## Task: Vim game In this task, we are going to play a game! 🎮️ diff --git a/src/day_5/tasks.md b/src/day_5/tasks.md index c7e632d..2a9106f 100644 --- a/src/day_5/tasks.md +++ b/src/day_5/tasks.md @@ -131,7 +131,7 @@ After running the second script, you should see the container compiling and then Now that you have the program `tmate`, find out what it does!

Before that you can install any packages with `apt`, you have to run `apt update`. This does not run system updates like `dnf upgrade`. `apt update` does only synchronize the repositories which is needed before installations. - Test if a file exists in bash:
