Pre-Coding Approach:
The Nobel prize Developer sites has a public API function which allows individuals to be able to connect to the data about the winners using an API. For this assignment I intend to answer these 4 specific questions:
Out of the last 5 years how many peace prize winner were women?
How many noble prize winner stayed in their birth country?
Which category of contains the most america winners?
Which Nobel prize winners were born in an African Country?
Coding Application: The format will use a standard hhtr2 with jsonlite library. On the Nobel prize development site they show that the data is based on a simple search method with a changing endpoint. I will adjust the endpoint to the goal that I wish to see.
https://api.nobelprize.org/2.1/laureates - for data organized by nobel prize winners
https://api.nobelprize.org/2.1/nobelPrizes- for data organized by the Nobel Prize Categories.
For example for the 1st question, I believe the best adjustment can be /laureates/gender/nobel prize year .
I also intend to use swagger studio in order to parse and understand the information provided.
