Understanding the algorithm

The client side of Restaurant app is a facebook messenger chat bot. This week, we started with its development.

We recognised various user inputs requied for making reservations. These were –

  • Date
  • Time of arrival
  • Time interval to stay
  • Number of members arriving
  • Category of table to be chosen

We had to design an algorithm such that we could give the best possible choice for the table. It should be efficient and fulfilling all the needs.

We also designed the flow of the coversation between the user and bot. The different ways to input the user’s input was decided.  We decided to use mainly quick replies, galleries, text input.

For users convinience we decided to give food menu of the restaurant along with the reservation module.
