Thread: programming help wanted

i have designed an algorithm that i would like to be embedded in an edit of a fork of an already existing[ GitHub .jar app created by someone else, to make it do something new and interesting that might be useful to a lot of people.



it's the sort of thing that isn't immediately obvious; people need to be able to see what it produces for them to appreciate its value.

my guess is that it would be fairly easy to implement for someone fluent in Java - but that's not me - at age 70, i am too old and lack the mental stamina needed to start learning Java. i know, because i've already tried!

expressing my algorithm in Java requires no special knowledge other than Java and an ability to read and understand the existing Influencie code, which is not very long. its author describes it as just-for-fun, and i guess she has moved on to other projects.

but i think it has great potential for tweaking into something actually useful, and could be later added-on as an optional display enhancement of an online client that many people use a lot.

can you help?
