Contributions summary:Torrey primarily focused on building the core backend functionality for an algorithmic trading platform. They created fundamental object classes such as `Instrument`, `Portfolio`, `Quote`, and `User`, along with a superclass for interacting with the Robinhood API. Furthermore, the user implemented classes for `Order`, `Market`, and `Fundamentals` which were all necessary components to enable the trading platform to interface with the Robinhood platform. This indicates significant work on building the platform's core API interaction layer.
