Projects

                
Project from ALX-School
                  A Series of Projects given by Alx-Africa Software Engineering program pwered by: Holberton Inc.
                
AccomplishmentsLow-level programming: Algorithm, Data structures, Linux and Unix system programming 
Higher-level programming: Python, Javascript, Databases, AirBnB clone 
System engineering & DevOps: Bash, Scripting, Networking, Web stack, Security, On call, CI/CD

Eg from ALX: printf
                  It is part of the standard input/output library (`stdio.h`) 
				  and is primarily used for outputting formatted text on the console or screen.
                
AccomplishmentsIn this project, we displayed integers, floats, characters, and strings, in a well-structured manner.
We controlled the width, precision, alignment, and more, allowing to tailor the output to the specific needs. By using format specifiers:%d for integers, %f for floating-point numbers, %c for characters, and `%s` for strings.

Filling Missing Data
                  A python scripts that used to fill a missed Rainfall and Stream flow Data.
                
AccomplishmentsDeveloped a python script that creates a graphical user interface (GUI) for filling missing values in a Rainfall dataset using the Arithmetic Mean and IDW method
Developed a python script that creates a graphical user interface (GUI) for filling missing values in a Streamflow dataset using Regression method
Developed some data arrangment tools (GUI) for pre-procesing for Rainfall and Stream flow.

awtiCode Development
                 Python code for env'tl data processing, developed by and for Arbaminch Water Technology Institute staff. 
                
AccomplishmentsSo far, code for various tasks is created. For example:
Filling missing data, outlier and data quality analysis; Optimization: sow schedule constraints, linear programming
Automatic Data download: CHRIPS, CMIP6
Working with different data types: NetCDF, .txt, .csv, .shp, …
