I was scrolling through reddit the other day, and came across [this great post](https://www.reddit.com/r/FRC/comments/byzv5q/i_know_what_im_doing/) by u/[MasterQuacks](https://www.reddit.com/user/MasterQuacks/).

I thought to myself "ha. Thats funny", and moved on. But that thought had stuck with me.
|
|
|
|
So here I am, bored on a sunday afternoon, staring at the matplotlib documentation.
|
|
|
|
## My creation
|
|
In only a few lines of python, I have a program that will (badly) graph the number of awards per wheel for any team, or set of teams.
|
|
|
|
As always, feel free to tinker with the code. This one is not published anywhere, so if you want to share it, I would appreciate a mention.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import requests
|
|
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
|
|
|
|
class Team:
|
|
def __init__(self, id, wheels):
|
|
self.id = id
|
|
self.wheels = wheels * 2
|
|
|
|
### CONFIG ###
|
|
|
|
teams = [Team(5024, 3), Team(254, 4), Team(1114, 3), Team(5406, 3), Team(2056, 4)]
|
|
year = 2019
|
|
|
|
##############
|
|
|
|
|
|
for i, team in enumerate(teams):
|
|
award_data = requests.get("https://www.thebluealliance.com/api/v3/team/frc" + str(team.id) + "/awards/" + str(year), params={"X-TBA-Auth-Key": "mz0VWTNtXTDV8NNOz3dYg9fHOZw8UYek270gynLQ4v9veaaUJEPvJFCZRmte7AUN"}).json()
|
|
|
|
awards_count = len(award_data)
|
|
|
|
team.w2a = awards_count / team.wheels
|
|
print(team.id, team.w2a)
|
|
|
|
plt.bar(i + 1, team.w2a, tick_label=str(team.id))
|
|
|
|
# Plot
|
|
x_lables = [team.id for team in teams]
|
|
# plt.set_xticklabels(x_lables)
|
|
|
|
with plt.xkcd():
|
|
plt.title('Awards per wheel')
|
|
plt.show()
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## The result
|
|
Here is the resulting image. From left, to right: 5024, 254, 1114, 5406, 2056
