This commit marks a major milestone in the problem generator project.
Key systems include:
- Fully functional problem generation for all 23 defined concepts (Simple Interest, Compound Interest, Banker's Discount, Effective Rate, Continuous Compounding, Exact/Ordinary Simple Interest).
- Robust date handling for date-specific interest calculations.
- Improved solution presentation with accurate "Substitute Values" step and complete variable descriptions.
- Interactive problem display in `main.py`: problem statement shown first, question and solution revealed on user input.
- Added plausibility checks for rate calculations to avoid unrealistic negative rates.
- Comprehensive `README.md` update:
- Detailed system architecture (modules, data files, Mermaid diagram).
- List of all currently covered financial concepts.
- Instructions for running and extending the generator.
- Discussion of scope for future enhancements (Equation of Value, Gradients, etc.).
- Refinements to `value_sampler.py` for better formatting and handling of None values.
- Updates to `text_snippets.json` for complete variable descriptions and improved solution step phrasing.
- Updates to `value_ranges.json` for date generation parameters.
- `problem_engine.py` now systematically tests all concepts when run directly.
- Added `uv.lock` to track resolved dependencies.
The system is capable of generating a wide variety of engineering economy problems with detailed, step-by-step solutions and an interactive user experience.
