Prerequisites

To run this project on your local machine, you will need:

Visual Studio 2019 Version 16.4 or higher

.NET Core 3.1 SDK (or lower if you choose to point the project to another version of .NET Core, like 2.1 for example

Other Considerations

• This VS Solution includes a .NET Core 3.1 Console Project and a .NET Core 3.1 XUnit Test Project
• No interface is provided (except for Question 8) to execute the different classes and its methods in this solution but by debugging the UTs those methods can be analysed.

Question2

• Assumption: if the input is negative, the function returns null

Question3

• Assumption: Only three different types of triangle exist: Equilateral, Isosceles and Scalene

Question5

• An SQL Server DB Version 15.0 (2019) has been used to help answer this question
• Microsoft QL Server Management Studio was used to run queries on the DB

Question8

• Through the Interface in the Console Project, it is possible to see how the solution of this question executes.
• When you run the project, you will see how the Class used to answer this question is executed by pointing to the following URL: Microsoft News site
• All links within that link will be extracted and then a GET requests will be sent against those links to and the responses stored.
• As the requests are happening, you will see in the command line the result of this request with the following format:

URL Processed | ElapsedTime: 383 ms | Result: OK | Url: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-au/

• Finally, at the end of the execution more information like: links processed, successful links, not successful links and total elapsed time will be provided
• Assumptions: Any response other than OK (200) is considered to be a not successful response
