🕒 00:50–01:35
🏷️ Labels: Python, Regex, Data Processing, GCP, Automation
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal:

The session aimed to develop and refine a Python script for filtering and pattern matching on text files, specifically targeting the ‘int.int’ pattern.

Key Activities:

• File Handling: The user was prompted twice to upload the missing outline.txt file to proceed with processing.
• Script Development: A Python script was developed to filter lines from a text outline and identify lines containing a specific numeric pattern (‘int.int’). The script was revised to enhance its data processing capabilities, ensuring flexibility in pattern matching.
• Technical Exploration: Insights were gathered from the book ‘Mastering Data Engineering and Machine Learning on Google Cloud Platform,’ focusing on automation, job scheduling, and monitoring of ML solutions.

Achievements:

• Successfully developed a Python script capable of filtering lines and matching regex patterns in text files.
• Gained insights into automation and job scheduling on Google Cloud Platform.

Pending Tasks:

• Upload the outline.txt file to complete the processing and testing of the developed script.
