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.

** '''C++''': I have mediocre experience with C++, mostly due the fact that I use C++ for competitive coding.
** '''Octave or Matlab''': I started using Octave as an alternative to MATLAB, initially for my Engineering courses I mentioned above. However my grasp over Octave improved while using it for Andrew NG's Machine Learning course on Coursera. Later I also attempted to write a research paper (related to Audio Processing and Extreme Learning Machines) for which I had to use the source-forge octave package, which made me realize some of the shortcomings of the package, which I would like to improve.
** '''OpenGL and Qt''': I have no prior experience in both of them but I'm eager to learn about them if necessary.

** '''Python''': I'm a little more acquainted in Python than Octave, since I've used it for a number of projects.
** '''C''': This was my first language, I initially used it for competitive coding before shifting over to C++, however I've never developed projects using the same.
* Please describe your experience with being in a development team. ''Do you have experience working with open source or free projects?''

** I, along with two others participated and won the Neebal Hackathon. We had developed a chatbot for the same.
** Also I've participated in the Mumbai Hackathon, and developed a open source python library for recognizing hand gestures, named [spockpy](https://github.com/achillesrasquinha/spockpy/). It is sort of my first contribution to the open source community.
* 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.

** It cannot be called the biggest project, however in a project I'm working on currently, I'm trying to implement an Octapad (electronic drum set), using a camera and Image Processing, without any other hardware components.
* 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 haven't done commits till now.
