+# Forth
+
+Implement an evaluator for a very simple subset of Forth.
+
+[Forth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forth_%28programming_language%29)
+is a stack-based programming language. Implement a very basic evaluator
+for a small subset of Forth.
+
+Your evaluator has to support the following words:
+
+- `+`, `-`, `*`, `/` (integer arithmetic)
+- `DUP`, `DROP`, `SWAP`, `OVER` (stack manipulation)
+
+Your evaluator also has to support defining new words using the
+customary syntax: `: word-name definition ;`.
+
+To keep things simple the only data type you need to support is signed
+integers of at least 16 bits size.
+
+You should use the following rules for the syntax: a number is a
+sequence of one or more (ASCII) digits, a word is a sequence of one or
+more letters, digits, symbols or punctuation that is not a number.
+(Forth probably uses slightly different rules, but this is close
+enough.)
+
+Words are case-insensitive.
+
+## Hints
+- To parse the text, you could try to use the [Sprache](https://github.com/sprache/Sprache/blob/develop/README.md) library. You can also find a good tutorial [here](https://www.thomaslevesque.com/2017/02/23/easy-text-parsing-in-c-with-sprache/).

+# Go Counting
+
+Count the scored points on a Go board.
+
+In the game of go (also known as baduk, igo, cờ vây and wéiqí) points
+are gained by completely encircling empty intersections with your
+stones. The encircled intersections of a player are known as its
+territory.
+
+Write a function that determines the territory of each player. You may
+assume that any stones that have been stranded in enemy territory have
+already been taken off the board.
+
+Multiple empty intersections may be encircled at once and for encircling
+only horizontal and vertical neighbours count. In the following diagram
+the stones which matter are marked "O" and the stones that don't are
+marked "I" (ignored).  Empty spaces represent empty intersections.
+
+```
++----+
+|IOOI|
+|O  O|
+|O OI|
+|IOI |
++----+
+```
+
+To be more precise an empty intersection is part of a player's territory
+if all of its neighbours are either stones of that player or empty
+intersections that are part of that player's territory.

data/tracks/csharp/exercises/grep/README.md

+# Grep
+
+Search a file for lines matching a regular expression pattern. Return the line
+number and contents of each matching line.
+
+The Unix [`grep`](http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/grep.html) command can be used to search for lines in one or more files 
+that match a user-provided search query (known as the *pattern*).
+
+The `grep` command takes three arguments:
+
+1. The pattern used to match lines in a file. 
+2. Zero or more flags to customize the matching behavior.
+3. One or more files in which to search for matching lines. 
+
+Your task is to implement the `grep` function, which should read the contents
+of the specified files, find the lines that match the specified pattern
+and then output those lines as a single string. Note that the lines should
+be output in the order in which they were found, with the first matching line
+in the first file being output first.
+
+As an example, suppose there is a file named "input.txt" with the following contents:
+
+<pre>
+hello
+world
+hello again
+</pre>
+
+If we were to call `grep "hello" input.txt`, the returned string should be:
+
+<pre>
+hello
+hello again
+</pre>
+
+### Flags
+
+As said earlier, the `grep` command should also support the following flags:
+
+- `-n` Print the line numbers of each matching line.
+- `-l` Print only the names of files that contain at least one matching line.
+- `-i` Match line using a case-insensitive comparison.
+- `-v` Invert the program -- collect all lines that fail to match the pattern.
+- `-x` Only match entire lines, instead of lines that contain a match.
+
+If we run `grep -n "hello" input.txt`, the `-n` flag will require the matching
+lines to be prefixed with its line number:
+
+<pre>
+1:hello
+3:hello again
+</pre>
+
+And if we run `grep -i "HELLO" input.txt`, we'll do a case-insensitive match, 
+and the output will be:
+
+<pre>
+hello
+hello again
+</pre>
+
+The `grep` command should support multiple flags at once.
+
+For example, running `grep -l -v "hello" file1.txt file2.txt` should
+print the names of files that do not contain the string "hello".

+# Hamming
+
+Calculate the Hamming difference between two DNA strands.
+
+A mutation is simply a mistake that occurs during the creation or
+copying of a nucleic acid, in particular DNA. Because nucleic acids are
+vital to cellular functions, mutations tend to cause a ripple effect
+throughout the cell. Although mutations are technically mistakes, a very
+rare mutation may equip the cell with a beneficial attribute. In fact,
+the macro effects of evolution are attributable by the accumulated
+result of beneficial microscopic mutations over many generations.
+
+The simplest and most common type of nucleic acid mutation is a point
+mutation, which replaces one base with another at a single nucleotide.
+
+By counting the number of differences between two homologous DNA strands
+taken from different genomes with a common ancestor, we get a measure of
+the minimum number of point mutations that could have occurred on the
+evolutionary path between the two strands.
+
+This is called the 'Hamming distance'.
+
+It is found by comparing two DNA strands and counting how many of the
+nucleotides are different from their equivalent in the other string.
+
+    GAGCCTACTAACGGGAT
+    CATCGTAATGACGGCCT
+    ^ ^ ^  ^ ^    ^^
+
+The Hamming distance between these two DNA strands is 7.
+
+# Implementation notes
+
+The Hamming distance is only defined for sequences of equal length. This means
+that based on the definition, each language could deal with getting sequences
+of equal length differently.
