This question may be asked many times but my business use case bit different.



I have sharepoint folders like this.



Nov 2018 Data Files

I want to combine files per company from each month folder and merge them.



Once all data will be merged then I need to do create dashboard.



Dashboard creation is fine which I can do after data preparation. Here are the challenges which I am facing.




  1. Need to do auto refresh the file

  2. Each month passing data merge & refresh should happen automatically

  3. There are multiple files for each company in each month which make appropriate data-set for analysis.


Any approach or implementation done in past based on scansion will be highly appreciated.

          Refactoring coordinates for Minecraft Pi buildings written in Python

          Image

I've found different ways to write the coordinates to make the code base shorter, but I'm wondering if it is possible for me to refactor it any further so I don't have to list each coordinate line by line. import mcpi.minecraft as minecraft import mcpi.block as block mc = minecraft.Minecraft.create() p = mc.player.getTilePos() mc.setBlocks(p.x+1, p.y, p.z+1, #Main structure starting coordinates (DO NOT ALTER) p.x+19, p.y+4, p.z+6, #Structure size/coordinates (Alters cube size) block.STONE_BRICK) mc.setBlocks(p.x+2, p.y+1, p.z+2, #Hollowing out main structure interior p.x+18, p.y+3, p.z+5, block.AIR) mc.setBlocks(p.x, p.y...
