[buchmann-dhi]

Hi Jesper (@jsmariegaard) and Henrik (@ecomodeller),
Just a clarification.
I read the present assignment as a git/function intro, but I just want to know if you expect "state of the art" coding style, eg with annotations as per PEP484 (https://peps.python.org/pep-0484/), or if we are using "plain ol' Py"), this would be the difference between eg:

def clean_spikes(data, max_jump=10):
    # Function implementation goes here

and

def clean_spikes(data: pd.Series, max_jump: int = 10) -> pd.Series:
    """ 
     Some nice descriptions
     Parameters: ...
     Returns: ...
    """
    # Function implementation goes here

I am assuming the former, because with the annotations would typically also go significantly more comments, and then we will (by far) exceed the 75 line suggested size.
Looking forward to a great coarse!

[ecomodeller]

We will get to docstrings (and a little bit about annotations / type hints) later in the course. Don't waste all your energy in the first exercise😉.
