Participation in Solidabis code challenge 2019
Get a list of Caesar-ciphered strings, and determine whether they are Finnish language. The cipher employs characters a-z, å, ä, ö; extra characters are left as-is. Some strings may contain only a bullshit message, thus the program must determine if the strings are truly Finnish or not.
The implementation compares each string and its deciphered variations against expected character distribution typical to Finnish language. The probability on being Finnish is calculated from Pearson's Chi-squared test result.
The program is deployed to Heroku. In the web UI, candidate strings are displayed divided to bullshit and no bullshit sentences. No bullshit sentences are shown in Finnish, bullshit sentences are displayed in their original form.
- Always run tests before pushing with
./gradle testand/or test build process with./gradle clean build- JDK 12 is required. See configuration from e.g. this Stack Overflow answer
- For Heroku, this is already specified in system.properties
- Test Heroku with
./gradle stageandheroku local - Increment version in build.gradle.kts
- Git commit
- Push to GitHub master branch; Heroku automatic deployment takes care of the rest
- Alternatively, push directly to heroku:
git push heroku master
