We are looking for a company / developer to write 2 scripts for us. SCRIPT 1: The first script would perform a series of search on google using a combination of keywords that could be entered in a CSV or comparable sheet. We could have 20 companies and 20 search terms, so that would be 400 (20x20) search total. And the idea would be for the script to spit out the number of search result for each of these combinations. For example we would enter in a CSV file (or whatever is easier) a list of 20 websites (site:[login to view URL], site: [login to view URL], site:[login to view URL], …, …., …, company [login to view URL]) and search term (searchterm1, searchterm2, …, …, …, searchterm20). For each of these we would get the number of google results. The trick is that the answer needs to be double checked, as google has some bugs some time, as is shown in the example below: Search for the following string in google: site:[login to view URL] microarrays It returns 1,590 results,, but if you click all the way to page 50, you’ll see that there actually just 493 results. That’s the number we’re interested in: 493, not 1,590. Note that if we enter 3 columns (or let’s say up to 10) in the CSV document, we would like the script perform a search for all the possible combination. The results should be output in a different CSV (or similar) document. Any document would do, as long as we can easily transfer the data in Excel. SCRIPT 2: We would like to develop a somewhat similar script, but using Pubmed.org. Type “gene expression” in the search box, and select display setting: abstract, 200. Now in this page, we want to know the number of abstracts that has the term XYZ (for example “PCR”). We are NOT interested in the number of times PCR appears on the page, but in the number of abstract that has this term. So if one abstract mentions that terms 10x, it should still be counted as a N = 1. I can provide more details if you mention that you have the expertise. Thanks, Stephane

Hello Stephane, thanks for posting this interesting project. I'm experienced in developing data scrapers for different web sites, including strategies for avoiding to be blocked when processing large databases (like multi-IP or proxy support, request delays...). Regarding the second (pubmed) scraper, I understand it's also a combination of two terms on each query: the search query ("gene expression" in your example) and the term to be searched inside the abstract ("PCR" in your example). I also understand that it will be 201 web requests for each combination most of the time (1 search request and 200 requests for the abstracts in order to look for the other term). Please correct me if I'm wrong. Please note that if it's ok, I would develop in C++ rather than C as C++ is superior when it comes to QA and maintainability of the code. I'd be pleased to discuss further details by private messages. Best regards, Isidor Zeuner

I am very proficient in c, c++. I have 15 years c++ developing experience now, and I have worked for 5 years. My work is online game developing, and mainly focus on server side, the lauguage is c++ under linux os. So, programming in c++ is never a problem. I used c++ to make many great projects, for example, I made the tools which can convert java files to c++ with the same meaning, ofcourse garbage collection included. I made our own mobile game using c++, I even can show you the demo of client. Trust me, please let expert help you.

Hello. Do you want to have it done exactly in C (that is mentioned in required skills list)? It's not a problem, but i offer you to do it in Python, which would make it more portable (in fact, the same code will run at Windows, Linux, MacOS etc), a bit easier to make further modifications (if you would need to slightly tweak the algorithm, or if the datasource would change). The whole work will take about 3 days.

Seems to be a simple task for me. I can do that with a python script for example. Or if you like in C, Java, etc.
