Вивчайте Challenge: Workload Analyzer | Optimizing Freelance Business with Python

Analyzing and optimizing your freelance workload can help prevent burnout and ensure you meet your deadlines without overcommitting. By building a Python program to examine your weekly workload, you can spot weeks where you have taken on too much work and identify ways to balance your schedule more effectively. This approach allows you to make informed decisions about rescheduling projects and managing your time.

To begin, consider a set of hardcoded project data that includes project names, deadlines (as week numbers), and estimated hours required for each project. With this data, you can calculate the total hours of work scheduled for each week. If any week exceeds 40 hours, the program will highlight it and suggest which projects could be moved to another week to distribute the workload more evenly. Finally, the program will output a clear summary for each week, showing the workload and any recommendations for rescheduling.

Definition

Definition: In this context, a "week" is simply a numbered period (such as week 1, week 2, etc.), not tied to calendar dates. This makes it easier to test and adapt the analysis for your own scheduling needs.

Завдання

Swipe to start coding

Write a Python program that:

Uses hardcoded data for at least five projects, each with a project name, deadline week, and estimated hours.
