Hi,

As part of my project , i have been asked to add some changes to the assignment module- adv. uploading of files and online text.
I'm new to moodle, so i don't know from where to start analysing the code,
any suggestions?

I don't know if this is helpful, but always remember that with PHP the URL relates exactly to the location of the code. So if you mess around with the assignment (setting some up and uploading assignments) you can see what scripts are getting called, when and with what parameters. You can then go and dig into the code knowing what the inputs are.

Also check out the developer area at docs.moodle.org. Notice that by default, search does not include developer pages - you need to go to the settings to enable that.
