Hello,

My name is Ganesh and I am an undergrad pursuing my bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
I am interested in contributing to SymPy and I have an idea of a feature, where can I begin to contribute?

Hey! 

You could check out https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/Introduction-to-contributing to get started. And usually, everyone's advised to check out the easy to fix issues https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22Easy+to+Fix%22. Good luck!

Hi,

Thanks for the links. I was hoping if I could add a feature to calculate the probability given the z-score and vice versa similar to st.norm.cdf() and st.norm.ppf() present in scipy.stats. I already wrote these functions but wanted to know if they are relevant to this package.

Is this different from what is already implemented here
