I'm looking for advice, guidance, and/or a mentor for cleaning up my project before 'officially' releasing.
go-symexpr, a package for symbolic expression manipulation.
This project is coming out of my masters thesis work on symbolic regression.

I definitely need to put some time into the README, comments for go doc, and more testing.
It also depends on another package I've built but haven't put on github.

best,
Tony

cool. doc comments would definitely be good - a nice start would be
the methods in the Expr interface.

one suggestion: it would be more conventional to use "Less" (or
"IsLess") instead
of "AmILess" - the same goes for the other "AmI" methods.

Hopefully this is a little more bearable to look at now.
I added some comments and updated the readme for github.
I also brought in some data series container code as well as a non-linear regression wrapper.

The non-linear stuff is a CGO wrapper around a C wrapper of the FORTRAN library MINPACK. It should probably be separated into it's own project, though I don't personally need any of the other functions from minpack yet.

btw, if anyone wants to help with the front end, that would make my day. (and a bunch of lake ecologists studying or fresh water resources)
