This is a template software project repository used by the Intermediate Research Software Development Skills In Python.
This repository is intended to be used as a code template which is copied by learners at Intermediate Research Software Development Skills In Python workshops.
This can be done using the Use this template button towards the top right of this repo's GitHub page.
This software project is not finished, is currently failing to run and contains some code style issues. It is used as a starting point for the course - issues will be fixed and code will be added in a number of places during the course by learners in their own copies of the repository, as course topics are introduced.
Several tests have been implemented already, some of which are currently failing. These failing tests set out the requirements for the additional code to be implemented during the workshop.
The tests should be run using pytest, which will be introduced during the workshop.
Inflam is a data management system written in Python that manages trial data used in clinical inflammation studies.
Here are some key features of Inflam:
- Provide basic statistical analyses over clinical trial data
- Ability to work on trial data in Comma-Separated Value (CSV) format
- Generate plots of trial data
- Analytical functions and views can be easily extended based on its Model-View-Controller architecture
Inflam requires the following Python packages:
- NumPy - makes use of NumPy's statistical functions
- Matplotlib - uses Matplotlib to generate statistical plots
The following optional packages are required to run Inflam's unit tests:
- pytest - Inflam's unit tests are written using pytest
- pytest-cov - Adds test coverage stats to unit testing
