Loops

Shrub Dimensions 1

One of your collaborators has posted a comma-delimited text file online for you to analyze. The file contains dimensions of a series of shrubs (length, width, height) and they need you to determine the associated volumes. You could do this using a spreadsheet, but the project that you are working on is going to be generating lots of these files so you decide to write a program to automate the process.

Download the data, use np.loadtxt() to import it into Python, and then use a for loop to calculate the volumes (l * w * h)and return a list the volumes. There should be one value in the list for each shrub. Once you have created this list, use another for loop to print out each volume on it’s own line in a string like ‘The volume the shrub is 22.5.’
