+4. Learning Programming - Contains the explorations of various contructs of C++ language, include C++11 features, Template Metaprogramming concepts.
+5. Exploring C++14 - Explorations of features of C++ 14, along with functional programming concepts like Continuation Passing Style etc.
+6. Performance Experiments - Contains the benchmarking code for seemingly simple code, and tries to obtain the average time taken by a function.
+7. Interview_Questions_Solutions contains code related to programming questions asked in various interviews, with each company's questions organized into its own project. Currently the following projects are present
+    * TAS - Diophantine
+    * Amazon
+    *  NVidia
+    *  Codeland
+    *  Napa

 # Prerequisites:
 1. C++14 or later compiler. For example on windows, requires MSVC 2015 or later for successful compilation.

-Welcome to your wiki!
+This document explains the prerequisite libraries and software that needs to be installed in order to build the project.

-This is the default page, edit it as you see fit. To add a new page simply reference it within brackets, e.g.: [SamplePage].
+Prerequisites:
+1. C++14 or later compiler. For example on windows, requires MSVC 2015 or later for successful compilation.
+2. Boost libraries >= 1.59.
+3. Poco libraries >= 1.7.8
+4. CMake >= 3.5
+5. Zlib and LibPng if building ImageProcess library.
+6. Qt >= 5.9.1 if building Napa_Solution and CodeLand_Solution 

-The wiki uses [Markdown](/p/learningprogramming/readme/markdown_syntax/) syntax.
+Steps for setup
+1. Make sure that cmake is installed and added to path.
+    For eg. if you type "cmake" at command prompt it should print details and quit.
+2. Define Environment variable "POCO" and have it pointed to the path where it is installed.
+    For building Poco on windows, refer to the section below.
+3. Define Environment variables "BOOST_ROOT", "BOOST_INCLUDEDIR", "BOOST_LIBRARYDIR" as follows:
+    For example, assume that boost libraries are extracted to the following folder: C:\local\boost_1_64_0.
+    Then define 
+        BOOST_ROOT=C:/local/boost_1_64_0
+        BOOST_INCLUDEDIR=${BOOST_ROOT}/boost/   or C:/local/boost_1_64_0/boost/
+        BOOST_LIBRARYDIR=${BOOST_ROOT}/lib64-msvc-14.1 or C:/local/boost_1_64_0/lib64-msvc-14.1/
+
+    Please note that "lib64-msvc-14.1" folder could change based on 32bit/64bit libraries and also the msvc compiler used to compile the boost libraries.
+    Also, boost_1_64_0 could also change as per the version of the boost that has been downloaded. 
+4. Define Environment Variable "QT_DIR" as follows:
+    For example, assume that Qt is located in the following folder: C:\Qt\5.9.1\
+    Then define
+        QT_DIR=C:\Qt\5.9.1\msvc2015_64
+        where "msvc2015_64" represents the compiler and the architecture against which the Qt libraries have been built.
+        Please note that, the build may fail if there is any configuration mismatch.
+5. If ImageProcess library is being built, please refer to sections: "Steps for building ZLIB" and "Steps for building LibPng", as the ImageProcess library
+    depends on them.
+
+
+Steps for building Poco:
+1. Goto this site to download the poco sources: https://pocoproject.org/
+2. Download the sources for Basic Edition, since there are no other dependent libraries needed to build.
+3. Extract to a suitable folder, and then run cmake with either of the following command for building with MSVC 2017(depending on the debug/release builds, although it is recommended to build both):
+     cmake -G "Visual Studio 15" -DENABLE_MONGODB=OFF -DENABLE_ZIP=OFF -DENABLE_PAGECOMPILER=OFF -DENABLE_PAGECOMPILER_FILE2PAGE=OFF -DENABLE_DATA=OFF 
+     or 
+     cmake -G "Visual Studio 15" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" -DENABLE_MONGODB=OFF -DENABLE_ZIP=OFF -DENABLE_PAGECOMPILER=OFF -DENABLE_PAGECOMPILER_FILE2PAGE=OFF -DENABLE_DATA=OFF 
+4. Open the corresponding VS project and hit build.
+5. Once the build is complete, run the "INSTALL" project, and the poco libraries should be copied to C:\Program Files (x86)\Poco.
+    Please note that if you did a 64 bit build, then the location would change to C:\Program Files\Poco
+6. Define an environment variable POCO which points to the path where the binaries are copied.
+
+
+Steps for building ZLIB:
+1. Goto http://www.zlib.net/ to get the latest sources.
+2. Make a directory called build (or any other directory) and run cmake -G "Visual Studio 15" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" 
+3. Make sure to run the install command once the build is finished. This will copy the includes and libraries to "C:\Program Files (x86)\zlib" on windows. On other platforms, the 
+appropriate installation directories will be chosen. Also, if the build is 64 bit, then the path will be changed to "C:\Program Files\zlib".
+Please note that, you may need to run with admin privileges/root persmissions for the install command to succeed.
+4. Now, define an environment variable ZLIB_ROOT, and have it point to the directory where the files in the previous step were copied.
+
+Steps for building LibPng:
+1. LibPng needs Zlib, so please follow the steps mentioned in the section "Steps for building ZLIB" before proceeding further.
+2. Goto http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html and get the latest soureces.
+3. Make a directory called build (or any other directory) and run cmake -G "Visual Studio 15" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE="Debug" -DZLIB_LIBRARY= -DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR= 
+Please note that the path to ZLib Library should include the filename as well, otherwise, the cmake build could fail with unresolved externals.
+4. Make sure to run the install command once the build is finished. The same caveats as in the earlier section ("Steps for building ZLib") will apply here as well.
+5. Now, define an environment variable LIBPNG_ROOT, and have it point to the directory where the files in the previous step were copied.
