Beginner contribution question regarding HAS_ROWS / low_dup cleanup

[Kanishka Solanki]

Hello everyone,
My name is Kanishka, and I am a second year Computer Science student
interested in compilers and low level development. I just joined the
AlgoI68 mailing list and I would like to start contributing to the frontend
as a beginner to GCC/open source development.
I was going through the Algo68 big task list and noticed the following
issue:
“It is no longer necessary to check for HAS_ROWS before calling low_dup.
Remove existing checks from the codebase.”
I was thinking of trying to work on this as a first contribution. Before
starting, I wanted to ask whether this would be a reasonable beginner issue
and whether anyone is already working on it.
If there are better beginner friendly issues or any recommended starting
points, I would greatly appreciate any guidance.
Thank you,
Kanishka Solanki
