Over six months, contributed to the olcaytaner/410-Exam repository by designing and optimizing a Context-Free Grammar (CFG) parsing framework in Java and Python. Developed core modules for grammar definition, validation, and pretty printing, integrating CNF conversion and CYK parsing algorithms to support reliable grammar analysis. Enhanced performance through data structure optimization, caching, and benchmarking tools, while improving code maintainability with abstract classes and refactoring. Expanded test coverage with educational assets and standardized testing frameworks, and improved user experience by adding UI controls for graph visualization. Addressed parsing bugs and streamlined configuration management, resulting in robust, maintainable grammar tooling and faster workflows.
