Enhancing Code Quality: Improving Pylint Score, Documentation, and Error Handling

Merge Request Description

This merge request addresses the imperative need to enhance the quality of our codebase. It covers three key aspects:

1. Improving the Pylint score indicating code health.
2. Enhancing our documentation to be more meaningful, readable, and understandable.
3. Incorporating comprehensive error handling mechanisms to ensure robustness of our software.

In addition, during the cleanup process, any bugs that were discovered have been fixed. Also, exception messages have been enhanced to indicate the exact path where they occur, providing more detailed context for debugging.

Merge Request Goal

The aim of this merge request is to significantly improve the Pylint score of our codebase, update and improve the documentation for better understanding, and implement comprehensive error handling mechanisms across the code. These measures will help in ensuring that the software behaves as expected under varying conditions and potential points of failure are handled gracefully.

Through the work done on this merge request, our codebase will be more maintainable, readable, and robust. Our documentation will be more accessible and informative, leading to a more productive development environment. Furthermore, the enhancements in error handling and detailed exception messages will improve our debugging process and overall software reliability.

Developers should refer to the Pylint documentation and Python PEP8 guidelines to better understand the standards we are aiming for. All changes have been thoroughly tested to ensure no existing functionality is broken.

While the estimated time for completion was initially 2 days, it was subject to variations depending on the complexity of the code that needed to be refactored, the extent of the documentation updates, and the implementation of the error handling mechanisms. The estimation was revisited as the tasks progressed.
