Classfinder in Python

Grab the available classes for a specified year and term. Optionally filter by only classes for my degree (MSEE, embedded track, defined in major_classes.csv). Optionally filter out classes I have already taken (defined in taken_classes.csv).

Usage

```bash $ python .\classfinder.py -h
usage: ClassFinder [-h] [-o OUTPUT] [-y YEAR] [-t {fall,summer,spring,j-term}] [-s SUBJECTS] [-q] [-m [MAJOR]] [-f [FILTER_TAKEN]] [--no-sections]

Pull data from classfinder and filter out to see what relevant classes are offered next semester.

options: -h, --help show this help message and exit -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT output CSV file to write DataFrame to -y YEAR, --year YEAR year to find classes for -t {fall,summer,spring,j-term}, --term {fall,summer,spring,j-term} year to find classes for -s SUBJECTS, --subjects SUBJECTS subjects to find classes from -q, --quiet suppress all printing. Still outputs to a CSV -m [MAJOR], --major [MAJOR] find only classes that apply to a major. Uses the given CSV filename to read major classes -f [FILTERTAKEN], --filter-taken [FILTERTAKEN] find only classes not yet taken. Uses the given CSV filename to read taken classes --no-sections do not include the sections column in the CSV or the printed output. Courses with multiple sections will be listed only once ```

Example

With major_classes.csv in the current directory, containing:

csv ETLS 676,ETLS 679,ETLS 630,ETLS 631,ETLS 678,ETLS 675,ETLS 699,ETLS 620,ETLS 621,ETLS 739,ETLS 744,ETLS 745,ETLS 746,ETLS 747,ETLS 748,ETLS 750,ETLS 751,ETLS 753,ETLS 795,ETLS 810,SEIS 631,SEIS 663,SEIS 763,SEIS 764,ETLS 881

and taken_classes.csv in the current directory, containing:

csv ETLS 676,ETLS 675,ETLS 699

We can get the following.

```bash $ python .\classfinder.py -y 2024 -t fall -m -f --no-sections Showing only major classes. Reading major classes from majorclasses.csv Showing only non-taken classes. Reading taken classes from takenclasses.csv Fall 2024
