This part is one of the more important ones in your application. You are allowed to be as verbose as you want, as long as you stay on topic ;-)
 
* Please describe your experience with C++, Octave or Matlab m-scripts, OpenGL and Qt.
I have been writing codes and programs since 9th grade as my hobby and studied the C++ course in 11th and 12th standard. I also studied C++ in my college and have a good experience in writing codes in C++. My current field of studies requires working with Matlab m-scripts on topics related with Signal Processing and different modelling and inversion techniques of linear equations. I have also developed some codes on optimization techniques comprising both linear and non-linear methods of numerical optimization. I have also developed an encryptor and decryptor on Matlab based on level-key concept for my hobby.     
* Please describe your experience with other programming languages.
 
* Please describe your experience with being in a development team. ''Do you have experience working with open source or free projects?''
I have not worked extensively with other languages but know the basics of Python,HTML and CSS.
* Please describe the biggest project you have written code for and what you learned by doing so. Also describe your role in that project over time.
 
* Please state the commits and patches you already contributed to Octave. ''This question (one of the most important parts by the way) is the only part of your application our wiki admins will edit for you even after the application deadline. Code sometimes speaks louder than many words do.''
I have written the codes for some problems, but the biggest is the one I wrote while working under my professor. The code calculates the depth of the magnetic/gravity anomaly  which causes the anomaly in the potential fields. The code was written in Matlab m-script. The code digitizes the potential field contours and interpolates the field, if required and computes the radial average of the power spectrum of field. The log of radially averaged power spectrum is plotted against wavenumber and the depth can be roughly estimated by slope of curve. For precise calculation of parameters the inversion was done by the codes written for linear programming (L1-norm and L2-norm) to obtain exact depth. I learned a lot in this project about my field as well as Matlab programming. I was the lead programmer in this project and contributed in most of the code.
 
Apart from this, as a hobby, I wrote a code for encryptor which encrypts the message of any length for random level and key and tells the level and key if asked. I also then developed an individual decryptor which decrypts the message by asking level and key of the encryption.
