Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself, and mention my interest in doing a project this summer through the Google Summer of Code with sympy, specifically dealing with error-correcting codes. This is not a project on the ideas page, but there seemed to be some interest in implementing some ideas relating to error-correcting codes, and I don't think anything has been done so far.
I'm not completely sure how this project should be, but my first thought is to start with something that can deal with general linear codes - maybe this could allow for encoding, decoding, and testing if a given word is a codeword for any arbitrary linear code, and also giving some basic properties of the code. Then this could be extended to more specialized things for specific codes, like Hamming, Hadamard, Reed-Solomon, etc. Does this sound like an okay direction to go in?
