Conventions

[Alan Bromborsky]

If I want to submit a python module for sympy what conventions
(programming, documenting, etc.) should I adhere to?

[Kirill Smelkov]

Alan, thanks for your interest to SymPy!

It is good to first discuss your ideas / code in the issues:

http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/list

As to the code,

Please document your code in docstrings and also in the wiki if you see
fit.

Write tests, both external (to be executed by py.test) and internal (in
docstrings)

Then prepare patch with your code, and send it either to the issues, or
sympy-patches mailing list -- we'll review it.

How to do SymPy development is described here:

Please don't hesitate to ask us again!

Yes, Kirill said it nicely. Generally if all of the above is too complicated,
just don't be afraid to throw your code in,
and we'll help you to improve it to be accepted.
