Tecky's Professional Data Science(PDS) Entry Test

Motivation

This course is designed for students with intermediate programming level. It is assumed that students joining this course already know the basic of Python programming language which includes control structures, classes, objects and functions in Python. Students who doesn’t have any programming experience is recommended to join our Introduction to AI and Programming to learn the necessary fundamental knowledge in programming..

Requirement

You need to build a Restful API that has the following structure:

API	Sample Input	Sample Output
GET /students	{}	[{name:"Ann",year:1,averageGPA:2.7},{name:"Peter",year:4,averageGPA:3.4}]
POST /students	{name:'John',year:2}	{updated:1}
PUT /students/:id	{id:2,name:'Ben',year:1}	{updated:1}
DELETE /students/:id	{id:2}	{updated:1}

On your server side, you can use the following as your sample data. Therefore there is no need for database. Also it is not necessary to maintain a json file as the file storage.

{
    "students":[
        {
            "id": 1,
            "name": "Ann",
            "year": 1,
            "averageGPA": 2.7
        },
        {
            "id": 2,
            "name": "Benn",
            "year": 2,
            "averageGPA" : 3.4
        },
        {
            "id": 3,
            "name": "Peter",
            "year": 4,
            "averageGPA" : 3.4
        }
    ]
}

A Postman file is also attached for clarification.

Technology

The implemented should be done by Python. It does not matter which framework you make use of.

Submission

You can try to finish your python file on your local machine and submit it to us.
