Hi Auon, Great going with your first version of k-NN implementation. Some useful links for coding guidelines are at (see Developer Documentation): https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=61319606 MADilb has something called as install-checks for basic testing. You can look at any existing module for an example of the same. For instance, check out the install check code for k-means at: https://github.com/apache/incubator-madlib/tree/master/src/ports/postgres/modules/kmeans/test
I am sure others will pitch in to help you more with your other questions, but these are some starters you can consider! Good luck!
