# Raindrops
|
|
|
|
Convert a number to a string, the contents of which depend on the number's factors.
|
|
|
|
- If the number has 3 as a factor, output 'Pling'.
|
|
- If the number has 5 as a factor, output 'Plang'.
|
|
- If the number has 7 as a factor, output 'Plong'.
|
|
- If the number does not have 3, 5, or 7 as a factor,
|
|
just pass the number's digits straight through.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
- 28's factors are 1, 2, 4, **7**, 14, 28.
|
|
- In raindrop-speak, this would be a simple "Plong".
|
|
- 30's factors are 1, 2, **3**, **5**, 6, 10, 15, 30.
|
|
- In raindrop-speak, this would be a "PlingPlang".
|
|
- 34 has four factors: 1, 2, 17, and 34.
|
|
- In raindrop-speak, this would be "34".

## Exception messages
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it is necessary to raise an exception. When you do this, you should include a meaningful error message to
|
|
indicate what the source of the error is. This makes your code more readable and helps significantly with debugging. Not
|
|
every exercise will require you to raise an exception, but for those that do, the tests will only pass if you include
|
|
a message.
|
|
|
|
To raise a message with an exception, just write it as an argument to the exception type. For example, instead of
|
|
`raise Exception`, you should write:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
raise Exception("Meaningful message indicating the source of the error")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running the tests
|
|
|
|
To run the tests, run the appropriate command below ([why they are different](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1629#issue-161422224)):
|
|
|
|
- Python 2.7: `py.test raindrops_test.py`
|
|
- Python 3.4+: `pytest raindrops_test.py`
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can tell Python to run the pytest module (allowing the same command to be used regardless of Python version):
|
|
`python -m pytest raindrops_test.py`
|
|
|
|
### Common `pytest` options
|
|
|
|
- `-v` : enable verbose output
|
|
- `-x` : stop running tests on first failure
|
|
- `--ff` : run failures from previous test before running other test cases
|
|
|
|
For other options, see `python -m pytest -h`
|
|
|
|
## Submitting Exercises
|
|
|
|
Note that, when trying to submit an exercise, make sure the solution is in the `$EXERCISM_WORKSPACE/python/raindrops` directory.
|
|
|
|
You can find your Exercism workspace by running `exercism debug` and looking for the line that starts with `Workspace`.
|
|
|
|
For more detailed information about running tests, code style and linting,
|
|
please see [Running the Tests](http://exercism.io/tracks/python/tests).

## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
|
|
|
|
It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
