Challenge #289: Prep a Shoe List

BS_THE_ANALYST
15 - Aurora
15 - Aurora

I think the solution could be improved as per the task requirements 'clean the inventory data'. There are 5 duplicates in the dataset which need to be removed.  

 

I was thinking how we could enrich this problem aswell. What if we have a list of standard colours, and we count the instances of that list against our shoe record colours. Could be a fun problem.

 

All the best,
BS

I tried to use this expression in RegEx: (.*)/(.*)/(.*)

 

But it would only parse the first two columns.  I think I needed something to tell it the 2nd and 3rd columns were optional, but if anyone has an idea, please let me know.

 

This was a fun challenge, thanks!
