You are tasked with creating a weather data collection program that asks the user for data, and then uses that data to output alerts to the user when certain conditions are met.

The data that is to be collected by the program includes:

• Temperature in either Fahrenheit or Celisius
• Percent chance of precipitation. (How great a chance that water will fall from the sky in some form.)
• Percent Humidity.
• Time of Sunrise and Sunset.
• Wind speed.

With this data the program should send out to the user the following alerts when the conditions are met.

• If temperature is above 90 it is a heat advisory, if above 105 it is a heat warning, if below 32 it is a freeze advisory, if below 20 it is a freeze warning.
• If precipitation is < 25 % than it is a low chance, if it is between 25 % and 75 % chance then it is a decent chance and if it is greater than 75 % then it is a likely chance of rain. (Pair this with temperature though. If its below freezing it won’t be rain but snow that comes down)
• If about 80 degrees with low humidity and no precipitation then it is a fire warning.
• If wind speed is greater than 40MPH then it is a wind advisory. If above 60MPH then it is a wind warning.

There are also a few checks and balances possible.

• Sunrise should never happen before 5AM and after 8AM
• Sunset should never happen before 5PM and after 8PM
• Obviously anything involving percentages should never go above 100% or below 0%

Produce a hierarchical clustering (COBWEB) model for iris data. How many clusters did it produce? Why? Does it make sense? What did you expect? Change the acuity and cutoff parameters in order to produce a model similar to the one obtained in the book. Use the classes to cluster evaluation – what does that tell you?

In this project, you will work with sales data from Top’t Corn, a popcorn          company with an online store, multiple food trucks, and two retail stores. You will begin          by copying the sales data for one of the retail stores from another workbook. Next, you          will insert a new worksheet and enter sales data for the four food truck locations,          formatting the data, and calculating totals. You will create a pie chart to represent the          total units sold by location and a column chart to represent sales by popcorn type. You          will format the charts, and then set up the worksheet for printing. Next, you help          Top’t Corn calculate payments for a loan and decide whether or not the purchase is          a good idea. Working with the daily sales data for one of the brick-and-mortar stores, you          will apply conditional formatting to find the top 10 sales dates. Y ou will also calculate          the sales for each date, and the average, minimum, and maximum sales. You will use Goal          Seek to find the appropriate price to reach a higher daily average sales goal. You will          use VLOOKUP to look up sales data for a specific date. Finally, you will work with their          online sales data to format it as an Excel table and apply sorting and filtering. You will          create a PivotTable and a PivotChart from a copy of the online sales data to summarize the          sales.
