The Zeroth Review
Zeroth. What a strange word. Sounds like Vinod. Maybe I’ll call him Zerod from now.
I went to college today to submit what we had hastily prepared a few days ago. Almost all my collegemates turned up with their preliminary project worked which ranged from shoddy to over complicated. We would rate ours somewhere in between. You want to know what it is? Perhaps Vinod will explain it.
One of the groups was submitting their project about analysis of bird calls to determine bird population and they were really surprised when I told them that it involved DSP. Some projects involved MANETS which seemed to be the latest thing for everyone to rave about without knowing anything about it. Last year it was nanotechnology.
What the hell is MANET anyway? Let me look it up…
Mobile ad-hoc network? That’s it? I thought it was some complicated thing. Bah.
Anyway most of the submitted projects were shot down by our lecturers, including ours. For some, the problem was not the actual project but presenting it in English.
He is your friend!!

Your project was shot down ? So what happens now ? uve got to think of a whole new idea ? or just rework this current idea ?
as for analysis of bird calls to determine bird population, itd take them years if at all they were to do anything substantial!!

We chose to rework the existing project with additional features in case we don’t find a new one.
About the bird call guys, it would come under shoddy.
