GSOC 2020 Introduction

[Kaushik kingkar Nath]

  

Respected Sir,

                         I am a third year undergraduate student pursuing my Bachelors in Electronics and Communication Engineering from NIT Silchar. I would like to take up the project "Fast evaluation of symbolic expressions" and would like to contribute towards it for GSOC 2020.

I have already started in getting familiar with Sagemath and its libraries and modules.And moreover I have a good math background in algebra,calculus and numerical analysis and probability and random variables too.I am familiar with C++ and Python and Java and bit of experience in competitive coding.

Till now I have contributed towrds Sympy(found small bugs and implemented some functions) and starting to get well versed with SageMath documentation.though the idea is all about evaluation of symbolic expressions and already cited that it has fast_callable function in sage,I too started getting a small idea of what and how it works(meant the implementation part)

It would be of great help if anyone could let me know how the expected proposal should be and more details about the exact deliverables of the proposed project. I would also like to know if there is any prerequisite before the proposal submission deadline like an assignment or having a few PRs merged as such.Though it's been late,but still wanted to know how to get started for this idea.

Dear Kaushik kingkar Nath,

Thanks for your interest. Your experience with sympy will definitely
be valuable.

In order to get started you need to understand the Sage development
framework. That is

- install from source
http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/developer/

- propose solutions for Beginner tickets from
https://trac.sagemath.org/wiki/TicketReports
For example, the ticket https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/8383 will
get you familiar with the symbolic part of Sage.

Deliverables are described at https://wiki.sagemath.org/GSoC/2020.
If you need more details, ask specific questions.

Best regards
Vincent
