This week, we’ve continued work on the learning the source code for Hacker Jeopardy. We’ve gotten the code into a GitHub Repo to both save our work and allow us to all work on the project at the same time. In our meeting with Raytheon, we’ve gone over more of the information such as the IDE we should use for the software. The recommended one was PyCharm by JetBrains. We are also using our First Month Report as a building ground for the upcoming PDR report Peer review. Since we’ve gotten some feedback from the First Month Report, we’ll use these to improve any less than satisfactory sections and add more through content.
For the software itself, there is the unfortunate lack of documentation of what each part does and when. For the time being we are still exploring the source code and trying to learn what each file does. We are trying to build up documentation as we go and will make sure to add to the documentation as we make changes. Finally, we have already made one change, that being moving the chat to the right side of the screen instead of the left. This allows for less visual clutter on the gameboard, and it fits better under the leaderboard.
