As students in Ontario, Covid-19 has been heavily affecting our school life, and there are many new complications to keep track of. We decided to make a tool that encourages people to screen themselves regularly and that way we would all be just a little safer.

The program asks the user the basic screening questions that would be asked on any ordinary screening in the province, and then automatically gives them results and instructions. We built the program using Python.

We had to overcome challenges such as limited time, trial and error, and such classics as: -Forgetting to close brackets -Signing into GitHub wrong

• Forgetting a print command and only realizing near the end, thus having to go back into the repository and put the whole code back in again for a single line of code

Some accomplishments that we were proud of by the end were -Well researching our topic and putting the information into the program without losing anything in the transition -Working with numbers and booleans at once, and converting between the two We learned to program as a group, this was our first Hackathon. We also learned that trying new experiences can be fun and beneficial, even without too much prior experience-what is there to lose.

Adding a front end apart from having the user type into the command line 70's style would probably be a good improvement to the program from here on out. :D
