This week, I worked on testing all the storytelling components of KATbot to see if they meet our metrics. For the part of speech testing, I created a python testing script to check the accuracy, with both correct and incorrect inputs, of the part of …
This week, I mainly focused on tying up loose ends and helping the others with integration. As mentioned in the team status report, I modified the program to output the entire story once it is finished with all the new words bolded so users can …
