Issue Description:
In aurora_api.py, around line 75, the SDG score is rounded using a verbose and inefficient method: score = float(f"{float(score):.3f}. This should be refactored to use Python's built-in round(score, 3) function for better readability, efficiency, and maintainability.
Reasoning for Change:
The current implementation is:
Less Readable: It's not immediately clear that the purpose of the line is to round the number. It involves unnecessary type casting and string formatting.
Inefficient: Converting a float to a string and then back to a float is computationally more expensive than using the direct round() function.
Harder to Maintain: The code is more complex than it needs to be, which can lead to confusion for future developers
Proposed Solution -
- Replaced the line:
sdg_predictions[sdg_name] = float(f"{float(score):.3f}")
with:
sdg_predictions[sdg_name] = round(score, 3)
Benefits:
- Improved Readability: Readability: The new code is concise and immediately clear in its intent to round the score to three decimal places, eliminating unnecessary string formatting and type conversions
- Increased Efficiency: Efficiency: The built-in
round() function is optimized and faster than converting a float to a string and back, reducing computational overhead
- Enhanced Maintainability: Maintainability: Using standard Python library functions makes the code simpler, more idiomatic, and easier for other developers to understand and maintain
