how many years?

I am just curious, how many years did it take to write that SPMF software. I think It would take me like one months to code one algorithm properly and there are like two hundreds :D

Hi Gerald,

I have started working on SPMF in 2008 during my PhD studies. The first release was in 2009. At the begining, I sent many months full time, and implements perhaps over 80 algorithms. Then, in recent years, I only spend a few days every months to integrate new algorithms but nowadays there are many contributors that submit code and report bugs so the SPMF software is still growing fast. The success is due to he many contributors and users. If you want to contribute code, It is welcome.

That Is a lot of time...

I need to improve my programming skills!

You can buy some good programming books to improve yourself.

I just finished reading a few books about algorithmics.

I think every programmer must have an algorithmics book.
