Comp Sci Students wanting to contribute

Postby nddatastructures » 16 Sep 2013 01:52

Hello,

We are three computer science students from the University of Notre Dame. For our data structures class' final project we are required to contribute to an Open Source project. We have about 2 months to work on a project (approximately 100 to 200 hours of work). Does anyone have any suggestions on what data structures related tasks we could work on?

What do you mean by data structures? What is NOT data-structures?
Do you need algo or it can be anything?

As long as the task involves a reasonably extensive use of data structures-related concepts (linked lists, trees, stacks, queues, etc).

For a better description, I uploaded the syllabus and final project description below:
