# Nicholas Hope Science Fair 2023 Code and Logs
This is the repo for my (Nicholas Hope) code that analyzes log files from various servers across the world.
<b><u>THE SCIENCE FAIR IS NOW OVER. THIS CODE IS LEFT ONLY FOR THE PURPOSE OF EXAMINATION.</b></u>
&nbsp;
## Contents
There are three main components:
1. `fetch-logs.sh`, which would retrieve log files from the servers when they were running. __It is now not functional, as those servers are not availible anymore.__
2. `analyze.py`, a Python script to analyze the data and produce a CSV.
3. `logs/`, the directory containing all of the log files.
&nbsp;
## Instructions
0. Clone the repository
1. For each directory, unpack all access.log.*.gz
2. Run the python script `analyze.py`, providing the log directory as the first and only argument.
3. It will make a new file, `analysis.csv` containing the analysis. Do with this data what you please.
