|
||
If you've taken COMP 2804 in the previous few years, then you're most likely familliar with the website ["DiscreteMath.ca"](https://discretemath.ca/). | ||
|
||
DiscreteMath.ca was built and maintained by CCSS executives and volunteers over the years and we're excited to welcome you to the latest version of the site. | ||
|
||
The [Carleton Computer Science Question Repository](https://questions.carletoncomputerscience.ca) is an upgraded version of DiscreteMath.ca built with the idea of eventually supporting more than just COMP 2804 and designed to improve the experience of contributing to the site. | ||
|
||
All content for the site is now statictly stored within the [project's repository](https://github.com/CarletonComputerScienceSociety/questions) and the website is redeployed automatically as soon as any contributor merges to master. | ||
|
||
<br/> | ||
|
||
## New Features | ||
|
||
In addition to an improved UI, the website also now features: | ||
- Written solutions for most previous COMP 2804 questions | ||
- Question tags indicating which chapter and section a question is from | ||
- The ability to practice questions with a specific tag | ||
|
||
<br/> | ||
|
||
## Contributing | ||
|
||
The website is also a great opportunity for students to get involved and possibly make their first open source contribution. | ||
|
||
Be sure to checkout our ["contributing" section](https://github.com/CarletonComputerScienceSociety/questions?tab=readme-ov-file#contributing) on the project README to learn more about how you can get involved. | ||
|
||
Some ways students can contribute are: | ||
- Adding new solutions or improving the formatting of existing solutions | ||
- Adding missing question tags | ||
- Adding ["generator" scripts](https://github.com/CarletonComputerScienceSociety/questions/blob/main/docs/contributing-generators.md) to help create new variants of existing questions for students to practice | ||
|
||
<br/> | ||
|
||
## Feedback | ||
|
||
We hope you're as excited about the new website as we are! If you have any feedback, feel free to direct it to [email protected] or reach out to us on the [CCSS Discord](http://discord.carletoncomputersciencesociety.ca/). |
