That sounds great! Did you have a question, or something we should comment on?

Were you hoping someone has a program lying around that does this? Like, someone who took this class last year? You should really consider doing the work yourself, and if there is something specific you need help with, please let us know.

on the surface of it - it may be worth turning this over to the computer science forum to get an idea and then posting code problems back here :)

Or better yet, let's just close it. Sounds like a member posting an assignment, and not reading the Announcement.
