Inspiration
We wanted to help those who wish to improve their writing skills beyond basic syntax, who may not have access to resources who can help.
What it does
It takes a user's writing, and finds different faults with it, such as use of passive voice, first/second person, ending sentences with prepositions, too.
How we built it
A web app takes in the file, which sends it over to Java to parse the document into a readable string. That then goes through the c++ portion to do the heavy grunt work, and
Challenges we ran into
The trickiest part was connecting each of the three sections (Javascript, Java, and C++). The word processing, too, had some challenges.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We've got a good detector of what we did implement, and it is modular so that more can be added on efficiently.
What we learned
Better algorithmic use in C++, as well as server side connection details.
