Hey guys im taking a computer science class on data structures and algorithms. I wanna do something glider related for my final project. I was thinking about trying to see if there is a pattern between average vario for a task and Xc speed. However, I have no clue how how to obtain such data from an igc file. Also,any suggestion On maybe doing something different for the project are welcome.

Thanks!

An IGC file is just a text file. You can search Google for the format specification.
