Why did I write it?

I wrote this application to learn a python module called argparse, and this seemed like the perfect fun project to do this with.

How can I get it?

You can clone the repository on GitHub or install via pip by running pip install petfacts

How to use

This is a very simple and light program, to see a random pet fact of a dog or cat variety simply run petfacts with not arguments.

If you want to specify a whether you want a dog or car fact pass in the arguments like so:

• petfacts --cat will return a cat fact.
• petfacts --dog will return a dog fact.
• petfacts --help or petfacts -h of course returns a help menu and exits.

Whats next?

• TODO: Give it the ability to store facts, why? Just because I'm learning.
