7. '''Have you participated in an open-source project before? If so, please send us URLs to your profile pages for those projects, or some other demonstration of the work that you have done in open-source. If not, why do you want to work on an open-source project this summer?'''

I was not aware of a thing like open source before I stepped into my college. But then I heard a lot about this stuff from seminars and my other seniors. Then I started participating in coding events and my first open source event was AI Challenge organized during our technical fest. I did write a simulator code for the event.

Then I also made a Sudoku solver in open source using a back tracking method in C++. The algorithm has complexity which is exponential in nature.

Now after knowing a lot about open source I want to gain some real time experience in open source development. The GSoC is an opportunity where I can apply my technical skills, can learn new things and at the same time can contribute something to the society.

I am trying to integrate speech in the core sugar. Means I am trying to provide speech synthesis as a basic functionality in sugar. According to me and a survey [EXPLAIN], language learning can be a great experience if done with speech. The literacy rate can be increased by 6-10% if speech is also included with text because this is the ability of our brain to easily remember sounds rather than text. So I am making this activity for children learning language of age group 5-15 or even older people.

I discussed a lot with alsroot, assimd and besmac on IRC about this project. The main points of discussion are:
