Questionnaire summary: Results from free text (answers from a definable set)

[harisood]

Summary of issue

Once the process for handling questions is decided (#12), we need to write reproducible code that allows us to get all the outputs from these questions that can be used to open issues for the specification repo

- 7.a Which non-desktop interfaces are important to you?
- 8.a Which programming languages are important to you?
- 9.a Which repositories are important to you?
- 10.a Which commercially licensed software is important to you?
- 23.a Are there sensitivity systems that you think are important or use?

What needs to be done?

• Decide process (Questionnaire summary: Decide process for handling free text (answers from a definable set) #12)
• Write a function that can reproducibly be applied generally across these questions
• Open issues for each category of question on the specification repo

Who can help?

• @JimMadge

Issue checklist

• I have assigned the appropriate work package label to this issue, and added any other relevant labels
• I have added this to the SATRE backlog (public) project board
• I have assigned this issue to at least one person on the SATRE team

@JimMadge @craddm updated list of all questions your guys code will cover!

We also need to think how to incorporate results from related free text questions in #17 - e.g. the MCQ for how important programming language support is, and the free text laying out the languages a TRE should support

Progress today: sa-tre/feature_survey@fb32591

generates table like

language	votes
python	50
r	50
stata	9
sql	8
c#	4

known issues,

1. Double counting within one answer (e.g. someone says "Python, Python, Python, I love Python"
2. This is not natural language processing (e.g. someone says "Absolutely not Python, it is bad")
3. Not currently % of respsones. Should that be, % of total responses, % of responses to this question, % of responses we didn't drop?

Percentage of accepted responses,

language	count	percentage
python	50	79
r	50	79
stata	9	14
sql	8	13
c#	4	6

As of sa-tre/feature_survey@fe2d4a6

Multiple counts from a single answer no longer affect the output.
