Role Assignment App

This Python project assigns four rotating roles (Moderator, Notetaker, Timekeeper, Speaker) to a group of people, ensuring that each person gets every role an equal number of times over time.

Features

• Reads people from src/people.json
• Tracks weekly role assignments in src/weeks.json
• Ensures fair and balanced distribution of roles
• Prevents people from being assigned two weeks in a row (if possible)

Usage

1. Add your people
   Edit src/people.json and list each person as:

   [
     { "name": "Person One" },
     { "name": "Person Two" }
   ]

2. Run the script
   In the terminal, run:

   python src/roleapp.py
   

3. View assignments

   • The script prints the new week's assignments.
   • All assignments are saved in src/weeks.json.

Requirements

• Python 3.7+
• No external dependencies

How it works

• The script reads all previous assignments and counts how often each person has had each role.
• For each new week, it tries to pick four people who were not assigned last week.
• Each role is assigned to the person who has done it the least number of times.
• Results are saved and can be reviewed or extended in future runs.
