The purpose of this project was to essentially mine some data. Various formats of data were brought to us and the goal was to remove the superfluous data and combine the necessary data into one use able format.

The data was e-mailed, reformatted, extracted, reformatted, and combined.

• The data was e-mailed and then sent to the tmp directory as text for access

• From there the necessary data was saved and sent back to the tmp directory to be combined and reformatted
