Hi,

I hope this is already clear, but I don't think you will be wasting anyone's time. The sympy community is very embracing and interested in all contributions. I would suggest you simply open a pull request (once you learn how to do so :-) ) and we discuss details of your code there.

Hi Matt,

Yes I will take a more serious look at the workflow.  I have not much
used IRC except to chat with my sons (one soon to be a professor at
Indiana University and one living in Temecula Ca).  But clearly it can
be much more efficient.  I am just a bit hesitant in wasting others
time.  Am not sure how welcome I would be.  Not need to bother people
with dribble...

1. create a new method for testing  the antisymmetry of a matrix: new "
is_anti_symmetric() " method

This sounds good to me.


2. create a new  method for calculating the symbolic determinant using LU
decomposition: new "det_lu_decomposition() "  method

This also sounds good to me. Is anyone familiar with symbolic methods to
compute the determinant? There are a couple floating around in matrices.py.
Comer's LU decomposition method seems to be quite fast for the couple simple
matrices I've tried. When is one method preferable to another?


3. create a new  method for calculating the dual of a square matrix: new
"dual_matrix" method

Can you define dual matrix?


If this is ok, I would appreciate some guidance on doing this, as I have
not done it before.

This wiki page is an excellent starting point
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/Development-workflow#wiki-workflow-process

When you get stuck with that I would suggest the IRC channel. I suspect
about half of the conversation on there at this point must be about using
git and github.
