Season of Commits Fellowship: Progress Log - Pratham Hole

As discussed with @rahulporuri and @ansh I will continue contributing to open-source projects under the Season of Commits program for the next three months, mainly to RADIS where I am a maintainer and to other open-source projects. I will share details of the other FOSS projects later as I am currently discussing with the maintainers to make the best use of my time.

After 3-4 weeks, once I have made significant progress, I will share an update in this thread and continue posting progress here throughout the fellowship.

In the last two weeks, I contributed to multiple open-source projects across RADIS and NumPy. On RADIS, I worked on PR #1006, which implements parallel fetching for ExoMol databases to improve data retrieval efficiency and reduce waiting time during database access. I also worked on PR #904, focusing on parallel parsing of HITEMP CO₂ chunks to improve performance when processing large spectral datasets; this work is still under review. Additionally, I worked on PR #1007, where I reformatted the codebase to match Black 24.4.2 standards, helping keep the code style consistent and maintainable.

On the NumPy side, I contributed to PR #31532, where I updated the development documentation to change the recommended tox Python version from 3.9 to 3.12. This helps keep the development environment guide aligned with newer Python versions and current project requirements.
