[Monetdb-developers] Start studying MonetDB code

Hello everyone,

I am an Italian student, and I will work at MonetDB/SPARQL for my master thesis starting from next January, in Amsterdam. Prof. Martin Kersten told to have a look at the code, in particular the SQL->MAL translator. So I downloaded the code, and managed to compile and install it correctly (on Linux). Then I opened the code in Eclipse (do you use it too? do you use some better C IDE?) and started to look at MonetDB5-server. Prof. Kersten told not to worry... but that's impressive! So where do you suggest me to start? Which c files and functions first?

Thanks in advance and kind regards, Marco Antonelli
