# Grade School
|
|
|
|
Given students' names along with the grade that they are in, create a roster
|
|
for the school.
|
|
|
|
In the end, you should be able to:
|
|
|
|
- Add a student's name to the roster for a grade
|
|
- "Add Jim to grade 2."
|
|
- "OK."
|
|
- Get a list of all students enrolled in a grade
|
|
- "Which students are in grade 2?"
|
|
- "We've only got Jim just now."
|
|
- Get a sorted list of all students in all grades. Grades should sort
|
|
as 1, 2, 3, etc., and students within a grade should be sorted
|
|
alphabetically by name.
|
|
- "Who all is enrolled in school right now?"
|
|
- "Grade 1: Anna, Barb, and Charlie. Grade 2: Alex, Peter, and Zoe.
|
|
Grade 3…"
|
|
|
|
Note that all our students only have one name. (It's a small town, what
|
|
do you want?)
|
|
|
|
## For bonus points
|
|
|
|
Did you get the tests passing and the code clean? If you want to, these
|
|
are some additional things you could try:
|
|
|
|
- If you're working in a language with mutable data structures and your
|
|
implementation allows outside code to mutate the school's internal DB
|
|
directly, see if you can prevent this. Feel free to introduce additional
|
|
tests.
|
|
|
|
Then please share your thoughts in a comment on the submission. Did this
|
|
experiment make the code better? Worse? Did you learn anything from it?
|
|
|
|
## Running tests
|
|
|
|
Execute the tests with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ elixir grade_school_test.exs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Pending tests
|
|
|
|
In the test suites, all but the first test have been skipped.
|
|
|
|
Once you get a test passing, you can unskip the next one by
|
|
commenting out the relevant `@tag :pending` with a `#` symbol.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
```elixir
|
|
# @tag :pending
|
|
test "shouting" do
|
|
assert Bob.hey("WATCH OUT!") == "Whoa, chill out!"
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or, you can enable all the tests by commenting out the
|
|
`ExUnit.configure` line in the test suite.
|
|
|
|
```elixir
|
|
# ExUnit.configure exclude: :pending, trace: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
