Welcome to the preparation course for the Digital Twin Competition, specifically tailored for participants in Group C (13-15 years old) and Group D (16-18 years old) who will be tackling the Data Analytics challenge. This global competition, organized by Pythaverse, challenges you to solve simulated real-world problems using programming and data analysis skills. In this course, you will learn about:Competition Structure: Understand the rules, registration process, and individual participation requirements. Prerequisites: Completing mandatory learning modules on the Pythaverse PContest platform, including PNote usage, JSON handling, and Python basics, is essential before you can access the competition missions.Challenge : Data Analytics (Groups C & D only):Use the PNote online Python environment and libraries like Pandas and Matplotlib. Analyze provided JSON datasets containing Leanbot sensor (RGB) data.Develop a Python algorithm to classify unknown sensor readings based on patterns in labeled data. Score points based on the accuracy of your classifications (1 point per correct prediction). Submission: Submit your solutions (Blockly code, simulation video link for Challenge 1; Python code and classified JSON file links for Challenge 2) electronically via the PContest platform before your timeslot ends. Submission time acts as a key tiebreaker. This course provides the essential information drawn directly from the competition guidelines to help you prepare effectively for both the programming and data analysis components of the competition.
