A collection of C++ classes representing fundamental linguistic units and building blocks of language from phonetics to pragmatics.
A collection of C++ classes representing fundamental linguistic units and
building blocks of language from phonetics to pragmatics.
A project by Tyler Phillips
The basic idea of this project is to create a set of classes representing the
basic components of language, with the goal that these classes could form a
foundation for a wide variety of linguistic applications. I’m trying to design
these classes so that they could be used for as many different applications as
possible.
I am a student and a relatively inexperienced programmer. I hope that this
project can be useful, but I’m mainly doing it for fun and to improve my
programming skills.
I have split the project up according to the major subfields of linguistics.
Each subfield has a folder, and each folder contains a header file, an
implementation file, and a test file.
I’m following a simple workflow pattern for each subfield:
Write a header file.
Write unit tests.
Implement.
Test and fix as needed.
I welcome contributions if anyone wants to work on this project with me. Feel
free to contact me about contributing at tyler.s.phill@Gmail.com.
Documentation for this project is provided in the documentation directory.
Documentation is divided into a separate file for each subfield, and an
overarching table of contents is provided which lists all resources provided by
this project and which subfield they occur in.
