LODA is a collaborative, open-source project dedicated to discovering, analyzing, and sharing integer sequence programs. There are several ways you can get involved and make meaningful contributions.

Program Mining

Help discover new and more efficient programs for integer sequences by running LODA miners. Mining is a community effort, and every contribution helps expand the database of known programs. There are two ways to contribute to the distributed mining:

All mined programs are credited to their contributors and stored in the loda-programs repository. You can track mining progress and statistics on the mining dashboard. Top contributors are recognized on the LODA BOINC leaderboard.

Contributing to the Codebase

LODA is open source and welcomes code contributions of all kinds:

  • Report bugs or request features: Open an issue in the relevant loda-lang GitHub repository.
  • Submit pull requests: Help improve the miners, web tools, documentation, or other components. See the repository README for setup and contribution guidelines.
  • Join the discussion: Connect with the community on Discord or via e-mail for questions, ideas, or collaboration.
