Want to begin contributing towards SymPy

[Mehul Aggarwal]

Greetings Everyone,

I am Mehul Aggarwal, a 2nd Year  Engineering Undergraduate pursuing Mathematics and Computing at NIT Hamirpur, Himachal Pradesh. I've been working with Python language for 1.5 years and have a good grasp of the concepts of Python. 

I've also been working in the areas of Web Development using Python frameworks like Django, and Flask for about a year... But now I want to start my journey as an Open Source Contributor.

I am familiar with basic High School Algebra and some concepts of Linear Algebra are yet to be studied that are in my course. I have minimum prior experience in using SymPy.

Can I get some help on how can I start contributing to SymPy?

Thank You.

Regards,

Mehul Aggarwal

Welcome Mehul. I am Mohit whom you asked for a good first issue so I have issue(https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues/13881) with that you can start as it is old and there are lot of conversation on it. Remember to understand a issue properly you need find it in your local code base also. That will help you a lot and be ready to give time about 3 -4 days for understanding your first issue and then some days for solving it , it will almost take 10 days. Go into comments and ask your every problem everyone just like me is there to help you with that issue because sympy is a advance derivative of python and it take sometime . Do comment below the issue so , that mentors will give you advice how to solve it.
Thanks and Regards
