Puzzle #209
Today we have task related to project management. We have project that consists of processes that consists of tasks. Each task has owner and duration. We need to find out when each person will end task for specific process. Complex processes that consists of multiple tasks, need to be assigned to maximal time per process. I hope that I didn’t mess up with explanation. So let’s try to solve it, instead of talking.

input1 = read_excel(path, range = "A2:C10")
input2 = read_excel(path, range = "A13:C17")

mutate(max_dur = max(`Duration Days`, na.rm = T),
end_date = as.Date(`Start Date`) + max_dur,
.by = c(Process, process_part)) %>%
select(Owner, Process, end_date) %>%
pivot_wider(names_from = Owner, values_from = end_date) %>%
select(Process, Anne, Lisa, Nathan, Robert)
Validation
identical(i1, test)
# [1] TRUE
Puzzle #210
We have August, at least in western culture, at least at northern hemisphere it is peak of vacation time. So we have vacation related task. Maybe not only vacation but leave days of any kind. We need to check how long each person have been on certain type of leave in continuity. We don’t need to add weekends, but it have to be considered calculating continuity. Let’s go.
