[pgrouting-dev] Weekly Report (Week 1) for pgRouting Project - Extension of pgRouting Contraction framework to implement Contraction By Area

[Ankur Shukla]

Hi All Community Members,
This is Ankur Shukla. I am re sending my weekly report with recommended
formatting and links. I am working with pgRouting for GSoC 2017. The
following is the weekly report for my project for Week 1 (May 30 - June 4):

*What did you get done this week?*
I used a script to generate the template code for a function
(pgr_areaContraction). I modified the template code to suit the signature
of the new function.
Details can be found in [1].
Set of pull requests can be found in [2].

*What do you plan on doing next week?*
I plan to improve the template code further by working on its output
parameters, and learn to use tests in pgRouting. I also plan to use pgTap
to write unit tests for pgr_areaContraction.
Details of possible sub tasks can be found in [3]

*Are you blocked on anything?*
I was earlier having difficulty in understanding the flow of code in
pgRouting code base. Regular feedback from the mentors has helped me
overcoming this impediment.
