 # Tax refund for donations
-In this excercise, you will create a program that is able to calculate the amount of tax a person can get back for a donation. First, research the rules for tax refunds for donations in Germany. Then, create a program that is able to calculate the amount of tax a person can get back for a donation. The program should ask the user for the amount of the donation and the yearly income and then calculate the amount of tax the user can get back. The program should then print the amount of tax to the console. Note, that the program should also handle wrong inputs from the user, e.g. if the user enters a negative donation amount or a non-numeric income.

 # Regression analysis
 In this excercise, you will create a program that performs linear regression on a dataset with housing prices. The  dataset can be found in the git repository under `assignments/hamburg_housing_prices.csv`. The dataset contains the following columns:
+
 - Price: The price of the house in Euros.
 - Area: The area of the house in square meters.
 - Rooms: The number of rooms in the house.
 - Year_Built: The year the house was built.
 - Distance_to_Center: The distance to the center of Hamburg in kilometers.  
 
-Your task is to perform a linear regression analysis on the dataset and to predict the price of a house based on its area, number of rooms, year it was built and its distance to the center of Hamburg. You can use the `pandas` library to read the dataset and the `numpy` library to perform the linear regression analysis. After performing the linear regression analysis, use the `matplotlib` library to visualize the relationship between the price and the other features as well as the predicted prices for a given set of features.
