🕒 21:15–21:35
🏷️ Labels: Python, Bin-Packing, File Management, Automation
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The session aimed to enhance a Python script for processing Jupyter Notebook files and implement a bin-packing algorithm for distributing consigna files.
Key Activities
- Enhanced the file filtering capabilities of a Jupyter Notebook processing script by excluding checkpoint directories and handling Unicode errors.
- Developed a bin-packing algorithm using the First-Fit Decreasing (FFD) approach to distribute consignas efficiently without splitting them.
- Modified the bin-packing algorithm to balance the size and number of consignas in each chunk.
- Implemented a Python script to automate the retrieval and distribution of consigna notebooks into balanced chunks based on specified constraints.
Achievements
- Successfully enhanced the file filtering process to improve error handling and file management.
- Completed the implementation of a bin-packing algorithm to optimize consigna distribution.
Pending Tasks
- Further testing and validation of the bin-packing algorithm under different scenarios.
- Documentation of the enhanced script and algorithm for future reference.
