# Space Age Given an age in seconds, calculate how old someone would be on: - Mercury: orbital period 0.2408467 Earth years - Venus: orbital period 0.61519726 Earth years - Earth: orbital period 1.0 Earth years, 365.25 Earth days, or 31557600 seconds - Mars: orbital period 1.8808158 Earth years - Jupiter: orbital period 11.862615 Earth years - Saturn: orbital period 29.447498 Earth years - Uranus: orbital period 84.016846 Earth years - Neptune: orbital period 164.79132 Earth years So if you were told someone were 1,000,000,000 seconds old, you should be able to say that they're 31.69 Earth-years old. If you're wondering why Pluto didn't make the cut, go watch [this youtube video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_2gbGXzFbs). ## Hints - Try to focus on minimizing the amount of code duplication. If you find yourself doing a lot of copy/paste take a step back and think about how the code can be refactored - [Pattern matching](https://fsharpforfunandprofit.com/posts/match-expression/) is more idiomatic than using dictionaries to translate values ## Running the tests To run the tests, run the command `dotnet test` from within the exercise directory. ## Autoformatting the code F# source code can be formatted with the [Fantomas](https://github.com/fsprojects/fantomas) tool. After installing it with `dotnet tool restore`, run `dotnet fantomas .` to format code within the current directory. ## Further information For more detailed information about the F# track, including how to get help if you're having trouble, please visit the exercism.io [F# language page](http://exercism.io/languages/fsharp/resources). ## Source Partially inspired by Chapter 1 in Chris Pine's online Learn to Program tutorial.
