Project Plan

  • We will create a program that displays information on the stock market with graphs and tables
    • This program will take data on the stock market from the polygon.io api
    • The information for each graph/table will be stored in a dictionary with multiple values
    • you will be able to switch between different stock options to view

1. Program Purpose and Function

purpose

  • Create a web application that provides data for people when investing in the stock market

    function

  • User selects what stock they want data for
  • Web application provides data in the form a graphs and a table that assist you with investing

    2. Data Abstraction

  • We will collect data from an api in the form of dictionaries
  • The data collected from the api will be used to create graphs and tables

    3. Managing Complexity

  • Data will be based on time(x-axis) and stock value(y-axis)

    4. Procedural Abstraction

  • The option to choose between different graphs and data tables and see different results
  • The option to compare different stocks to another on the same graph

    5. Algorithm Implementation

  • TBD when we go over this in class

    6. Testing

  • case sensitive
