Code written by novice programmers is often riddled with many different code quality defects, overcomplicated conditions among them. The student will implement detectors for different kinds of overcomplicated conditions: conditions simplifiable using a different operator or built-in function (e.g. min, abs), unsatisfiable or tautologic conditions, conditions with sub-expressions implied by other sub-expressions of the condition or by a previous condition in an if-elif chain, etc. The student will integrate these detectors into EduLint, an open source linter for novice programmers, and evaluate their performance.
