Sir,
I am completely new to the opensource world and new to OPW as well.Since I do have little knowledge as well as interest in financial market,I am very much interested in contributing towards your project.I have some little knowledge of algo trading as well.I know c,c++and basics of python and R and am familiar with visual studio 2010 and new to Qt.Unfortunately I don't know SQl yet but am planning to learn it soon.Please tell me how shall I contribute towards your project so as to apply for it.Since I am completely new to open source world some guidance will be really appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Shagun,
Thanks for your email
Do you already use Debian on your PC or laptop?
Would you be able to try and install some of the programs I mention on
the wiki, use the Debian packages, and tell me your first impression of
them?

Daniel

Sir,
I am right new to linux.I had downloaded linux mint last week.As per your suggestion I have downloaded gnuCash . From its tutorial what I could interpret was that it is an accounting/book-keeping system which can cater to individuals and small firms.The thing that I appreciated most was that it takes care of budgeting and expenses(future liabilities),thereby making the financial plan and having a control over it.My suggestion is that your investments should reflect the mark to market values so that your assets and liabilities have a true representation.
I also downloaded xTuple for PostBooks but am still not able to login through free trial account as the account's verification is still pending.

Hi Shagun,
Could you try installing the PostgreSQL database on your computer
and running a local copy of the PostBooks database? Then you will
not need to wait for the cloud trial account.

Sir,
As I said I am new to linux,it took a lot of time for me to run xtuple as I was eccountring lots of errors,but at last I was able to run it.
My first impression of Xtuple is that it iss a complete ERP solution catering to small and large corporates/manufacturing units.It encompasses all the necessary steps/events in corporate's daily and long term functioning.

Sir,
Thank you for your valuable guidance.
As I had said earlier I am completely new to open source and am very excited to be a part of it.Since am interested in financial softwares ,I would be very happy and interested in contributing towards these type of projects even if I am not selected in O.P.W.
I am really interested in GNUCash.
I'll be very obliged if you could send some task related to GNUCash so that I can see my level.

Sir,
$ createdb mydb
I got the following message:
createdb: could not connect to database postgres: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
I uninstall it and downloaded postgresql - 9.1 from package manager,now I encountered a new error :
$ createdb mydb
this gave me following message :
createdb: could not connect to database postgres: FATAL: role "shagun" does not exist
I easily sorted out this problem after some little search on google.
After proceeding further I again encountered an error.
FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "[local]"
Finally I was able to install it.But I don't know why,despite following all the steps and I was unable to login in it.
After trying again and again and facing same problem of not being able to login ,I finally decided to install it using Pgadmin.
and was finally able to run xtuple.
Sir,please also do tell the time line by which i can submit my task.

Hi Shagun,
Thanks for this feedback, it is very helpful. Most users would
have similar problems installing PostgreSQL for the first time -
it appears that you have solved a number of problems during this
process.
For postgresql login problems, you need to study the pg_hba.conf
file (it is under /etc/ .. something). Please look for the
PostgreSQL online documentation about this file. You may need to
run some commands using the postgres user ID. You need to see the
init.sql file in the postbooks-schema-demo package too
For the contribution:
- is the Python task OK or would you prefer a C, C++ or Java task
instead?
- you can complete it up to 31 October
Which OPW projects will you apply for? I would suggest that you
apply for all of the projects that you feel capable of completing,
but you only need to do one coding task.
Regards,
Daniel

Sir,
I know beginner level python,so i'll be more comfortable in doing c++,c task.If it is feasible please give me c++/c project.
From Debian community projects,I could find only your project('Improving free financial software packages') interesting and feel capable of completing it.Though there are some projects which I feel I am capable of completing but I don't have complete knowledge of them.Like I don't have complete knowledge regarding the projects 'Enabling free multimedia real-time communication(RTC) with Debian' and 'MIPS N32/N64 ABI port'.
Should I apply for these projects despite having very less knowledge about them?

Hi Shagun,
For a C++ project, please have a look at the reSIProcate source
code
https://github.com/resiprocate/resiprocate.git
Try to follow the instructions to build the project and run the
"rutil" test cases.
Have a look at the code in rutil/compat.hxx
Modify rutil/test/testCompat.cxx - add some code to test each of
the following functions:
- snprintf
- strncasecmp
- resipMin
- resipMax
You should probably make at least 3 tests for each function. You
should test normal behavior and some edge cases with bad inputs.
You don't need to worry about any other part of the reSIProcate
project, just the testCompat.cxx code. You can run the code with
./configure && make -C rutil check
Please submit your changes as a github pull request or as a patch
attached to an email
You should only apply for those projects that you feel capable of
completing. The finance project can involve C/C++ code, so this
test exercise is quite acceptable for any C/C++ project in OPW
with Debian.
Sorry for the delay in my reply, I have been flying from the US
back to Europe this weekend.
Regards,
Daniel

Actually, you need to bootstrap with autoreconf as well, so the whole
process is:
git clone
https://github.com/resiprocate/resiprocate.git
cd resiprocate
autoreconf -fi
./configure
make -C rutil check

Sir,
I was successful in building the whole projecting and running the 'rutil' test cases.I have studied rutil/Compat.hxx.I guess my task is somewhat related to unit testing and it is completely new thing for me.I am facing some problems in framing the test cases.Please if possible,help me regarding the following doubts :
- Should resiMax and resipMin accept character inputs i.e should I make test for character inputs as well ?
- while applying some edge cases on reipMin and resipMax I got the following ambiguity: for example the test passes for : assert(resipMin(5223372036854775807.9965443,9223372036854775807.1265443) == 5223372036854775807.1265443); (here minimum of both the numbers is different from one to which it is asserted to.)
- While using snprintf it shows the error that snprintf was not declared in the scope ( like in the following):
char buffer [100];
int cx;
cx = snprintf( buffer, 100, "hello");
cout<<cx<<endl;
the error message that is showed : [error: ‘snprintf’ was not declared in this scope.]
Sorry for late response.These all stuff are very new to me ,so it took me time to understand them.

This is good progress, see my comments inline below
Also, are you applying for any of the other C or C++ projects,
e.g. the MIPS N32/N64 ABI port? I would encourage you to put your
name next to all the projects that involve C or C++ development as
only 1 project will be funded.

problems in framing the test cases.Please if possible,help me
regarding the following doubts :
- Should resiMax and resipMin accept character inputs i.e
should I make test for character inputs as well ?
Please use the find command to grep the source tree and find out how
many times resipMin and resipMax are used and see what type of
values they are used for
E.g.
find . -type f -exec egrep -H 'resipMin|resipMax' {} \;
Objects can overload the < and > operators so it is probably a
good idea to test with some very simple object arguments
- while applying some edge cases on reipMin and resipMax I
got the following ambiguity: for example the test passes
for :
assert(resipMin(5223372036854775807.9965443,9223372036854775807.1265443)
== 5223372036854775807.1265443); (here minimum of
both the numbers is different from one to which it is
asserted to.)
This type of problem is not unusual when doing floating point
comparisons, especially testing for equality
Can you think of any other way to make this test so it should always
work? This is a useful thing for you to spend some time reading
about as it is something every C/C++ programmer has to understand.
- While using snprintf it shows the error that snprintf
was not declared in the scope ( like in the following):
char buffer [100];
int cx;
cx = snprintf( buffer, 100,
"hello");
cout<<cx<<endl;
the error message that is showed : [error:
‘snprintf’ was not declared in this scope.]
Sorry for late response.These all stuff are very new to me
,so it took me time to understand them.
Can you look closely at the error and try to work out what it is
telling you - are you familiar with C++ namespaces?
Where is snprintf declared? Is it declared in more than one place?

Sir,
I checked the type of arguments of rersipMax and resipMin by the command you gave.From what I could observe was that type of arguments was of integer type.Still I added some simple tests involving character type inputs.
And the ambiguity which I was facing in resipMin i.e
the test passes for :
assert(resipMin(5223372036854775807.9965443,9223372036854775807.1265443) == 9223372036854775807.1265443); (here minimum of both the numbers is different from one to which it is asserted to.)
I sorted this out using the concept of relative error i.e
assert(((resipMin(5223372036854775807.9965443,9223372036854775807.1265443) -
5223372036854775807.9965443)/5223372036854775807.9965443) < 0.000000001);
I hope this is the correct method to sort out these kind of problems.
The problem which I was facing with snprintf(), I googled that problem and found that I had to include the 'cstudio' library file in testCompat.cxx. The cause of the problem which I could find was that on some OS distributions studio is not included by default.
You asked me to check resipMin and resipMax with objects as arguments.I checked them and it gave me the following error :
testCompat.cxx:68:5: required from here
../../rutil/compat.hxx:179:4: error: no match for ‘operator<’ in ‘__a < __b’
can this error be sorted out ?

Please forward copies of our emails to
debian-mips@lists.debian.org
and try to contact the mentors named on the project page:
https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2013/Projects#MIPS_N32.2FN64_ABI_port
Ask them if they want to ask any questions about the contribution you
made to this C++ project as they may accept this work instead of
asking you to make an extra test exercise

You told me you would also like to apply for the MIPS N32/N64 ABI
project - I am not the mentor for that project, so you need to
contact the mentors through the debian-mips email list
Normally they would ask you to make another coding task - but if you
show them to coding task you did for me and all the emails about it,
they may accept that as part of your application for their project.

Yes, please send as a pull request
Create a profile page for yourself on the wiki (see my earlier
email)
and create a link to the pull request from the wiki
