Challenge: Creating the Sensor

Swipe to show menu

Task

Swipe to start coding

You are going to create a Sensor class to help keep track of numbers recorded by sensors. A sensor is a device that measures something, like temperature or light, and stores those measurements as a list of numbers called readings. Follow these steps to build your class:

  • Add a method called add_reading:
    • This method should take one value (a number).
    • Add this value to the sensor's list of readings.
  • Fill a method called average_reading:
    • This method should return the average (mean) of all the numbers in the readings list.
    • If there are no readings, it should return None instead of causing an error.
  • Add a method called reset_readings:
    • This method should remove all readings from the Sensor.
    • The readings list should become empty.
