You've been hired as a software engineer at a new company. Their previous engineer quit unexpectedly, and left some code that... isn't exactly production-ready.
For each of the following 3 exercises, your job is to use the techniques covered in class to locate and find the bug(s).
The first exercise is a pizza shop written in Flask and Flask-SQLAlchemy. It should be partially working - the previous engineer left it in a good enough state that you can see a homepage and a "New Order" page. However, new pizzas aren't being added to the homepage, and customers are waiting at the door to place their orders!
As you debug, write down the steps you take in debug_log.md. You'll submit this as your homework assignment.
Your job is to get the "New Order" page in working order, so that new pizza orders are displayed correctly on the homepage. Make sure to watch out for multiple bugs!
The second exercise is a Flask application that tells you what the weather is in your city. The first page should be functional, but once you click the submit button, there are a few bugs to work out.
As you debug, write down the steps you take in debug_log.md. You'll submit this as your homework assignment.
Your job is to get the Results page in working order, so that it correctly shows the weather in the user's city and uses the given units of measurement. Make sure to watch out for multiple bugs!
The third exercise contains a searching & sorting algorithm. The main.py file contains some test code that isn't quite working yet. If you can, try to solve this one without looking up solutions to the algorithms.
As you debug, write down the steps you take in debug_log.md. You'll submit this as your homework assignment.
Your job is to get the merge_sort and binary_search functions in working order, so that they correctly compute the sorted list and the index of the given element. Make sure to watch out for multiple bugs!
You will need to submit debug_log.md to Gradescope as your homework.
