Exercism exercises in Python
Please see the contributing guide
We welcome both improvements to the existing exercises and new exercises. A pool of exercise ideas can be found in the x-common repo.
All exercises must be compatible with Python versions 2.7 and 3.3 upwards. Therefore please test your changes at least with Python2.7 and Python3.5.
To test a single exercise, say crypto-square, run:
python2.7 test/check-exercises.py crypto-square
and
python3.5 test/check-exercises.py crypto-square
To run the tests for all exercises type:
python test/check-exercises.py
The Python code in this repo is meant to largely obey the PEP8 style guide.
This repo uses flake8 to enforce the coding standard. When you submit a PR, it needs to pass the flake8 tool with no warnings, or it won't be accepted. Here are the settings used by the build system:
flake8 [your-code-here.py] --max-line-length=99 --select=E,W
