Cosmic Distance Ladder - IoA Open Day 2023

This is the code we used to run the Cosmic Distance Ladder Obstacle Course, an event which was part of the Institute of Astronomy's Open Day for the Cambridge Festival 2023. This was made up of three rounds (representing the three rungs of the cosmic distance ladder) and each participant was scored using the game.py python program. The leaderboard is read from scoreboard.csv and can be displayed using leaderboard.py (requires the pandas and eel python packages).

All of the participants' scores can be found in scoreboard.csv and some basic analysis of the scores is done by analyse_data.py.


Acknowledgements

The Cosmic Distance Ladder Obstacle Course was run and devised by Erin Hayes, Ben Boyd and Drew Langford. game.py was written by Drew Langford. Further thanks goes to Matt Bothwell for organising a great open day.
