Inspiration
AMEX Challenge problem #2 build a way to ask a natural language question and get a response
What it does
- Search Foursquare for locations of favorite charities
- Get Google News API top hits for the charity
- Ask questions and responds using preset paragraphs on a SQL DB.
How I built it
Laravel 5 PHP Framework and a MySQL Database
Challenges I ran into
Comparing 2 lists via mysql. Solved it by just getting all the info and running a O(n^3) triple for loop.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Not drinking coffee or redbull at all.
What I learned
Creatively diagnose a problem to try to get it done under a time constraint.
What's next for Ask about Red Cross (AMEX Challenge Q2)
More paragraphs, better algorithm for ranking.
