Spooky Certification of Sorcery and Spells

[AlteryxCertification]

Welcome to the Spooky Certification of Sorcery and Spells Celebration!! 

First let us give you a quick explanation, 

This year for Halloween we want to challenge you  

to a SPOOKY exam...one, three, or two. 

YOU get to choose your level of terror 

Be careful, there is no room for error. 

The exams are not long and are totally free 

Questions and a dataset for each, you see. 

If at first you fail, don’t fret or freeze, 

Take them as many times as you please! 

BEWARE! Once the clock strikes on November 4th at midnight, 

Their challenges and fun will no longer bring fright. 

As they will each return from whence they came 

Back to the underworld, till Halloween comes the same. 

Your reward should you have the skills to pass 

is a sticker to show your entire class.  

Stick your reward into a comment below, 

And of your spooky skill the Maveryx Community will know. 

(If poetry isn’t your thing, here’s plain English: we created 3 exams that increase in difficulty. You can take all three for free. They each have a different number of questions and passing score, but they all will require you to download a dataset and use your Designer skills. These fun exams will only be available until November 4th. Once you pass, you will receive an email with a downloadable sticker to post in a comment below. Our hope is to see a long comment section full of stickers!)

bring on your regex knowledge for the reaper one

[Pang_Hee_Choy]

100%, 80%, 70%

I can't understand this level of complex regex, I just throw it into regex tool.

and it led to another question, did it is case sensitive? as case insensitive is default setting in regex tool.

WHICH WITCH SAID BOO?

@Pang_Hee_Choy

As you said, it was not clear we should consider it case insensitive or not. Default is insensitive but it depends on how we configure it in check box✅. I answered as case sensitive basis, but it might be not correct way...
