Hello everyone, My name is Prafullkumar P. Tale. I am a 4th year student at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, doing 5 years Integrated M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics. ( It is an integrated course offering graduate and post graduate degree with Math major).
My area of interest lies preliminary in algorithms. I like coding for mathematical problems and spend most of my time for the same. Initially I stepped on wrong foot and started coding in MatLab. I spend 1&1/2 year, before finally switching to Python. I love Python. After attending Sage Days 25, India and SciPy 2010,India, I became a big fan of open source and would like to contribute back. I think GSoC would give me a structured platform and other incentives to work for open source projects. I would like to work for SymPy as it gives me an opportunity to work closely with mathematical concepts rather than solely coding. The projects ideas I am going through are- - improve the integration algorithm - definite integration & integration on complex plane using residues - improve polynomial algorithms - implement efficient multivariate polynomials - improve simplification and term rewriting algorithms - implement symbolic global optimization (value, argument) with/without constraints - *improve the plotting module*s - generalized functions -- Dirac delta, P(1/x), etc... Convolution, Fourier and Laplace transforms - ordinary and partial differential equations - improve SymPy's interoperability with other CAS software I had one or two courses in most of the topics during my academic studies and worked with Sage, NumPy, matplotlib,etc. I am working to know how much I can implement in SymPy before finalizing my topic. I am following the directions/guidelines given to Sherjil Ozair in recent posts and I am thankful for that. If there are additional things, please let me know. Some of my earlier work can also be seen at - https://github.com/hector1618. Thanking you for your time. -- -Regards Hector Whenever you think you can or you can't, in either way you are right. P.S. - I often use Hector as my nickname. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group. To post to this group, send email to sympy@googlegroups.com.
