= PRE MIDTERM EVALUATION SUMMARY=
 
 
 
I was rather off to a slow start for GSoC 2015 coding due to my final year management project. However, I've written the getTangentPoint() member function for the LC_Hyperbola  and I am currently designing appropriate test cases to ascertain the effectiveness of getTangentPoint() function. When I've perfected these test cases, anyone will be able to run these tests after compiling LibreCAD by ./lc on the command line in the unix/ directory.

* Sick day: Have not done any work today. Currently on medications.
 
 
 
* Managed to post my pre midterm evaluation summary to my development logs, BRL-CAD mailing list and cc'ing my mentors in LibreCAD and BRL-CAD.
 
 
 
* Updated my LibreCAD [https://github.com/Ngassa/LibreCAD repositories] too.
