GSoC idea: Rewriting the Matrices module to make matrices in Sympy faster and more usable.

[Vedarth Sharma]

I saw it as an idea prompt in Sympy ideas. It basically said that we need to rewrite the Matrices module to be more like polys module etc.

Rewrite Matrices module. Well for past few days I have been analyzing Matrices module and I am thinking of doing a project which involves not only rewriting the Matrix module but also making it more usable. Right now it is pretty disorganized as well as just flawed. In my recent pull request I learned something interesting. There are some files that are logically incorrect i.e.(mathematically incorrect) and there tests are also like so. So can you suggest me what should my proposal include? I will submit a draft in 3 to 4 hours. Please give me feed back on that as well. Thanks a lot.

Issues:- 12300 , The answer comes in KD form instead of the literal answer.

12427 , 12258 . 

Please give me some suggestions.

You should connect with Jason Siefkin who is currently in the midst of rewriting and organization the matrix code.

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for your advice.

Actually that's the reason I dropped my idea. If something like that can be done through few pull requests (and someone has already done so much work on it), there was no point in me working on it as a GSoC project. But I am definitely interested in helping him out and will do so in my spare time and give him some suggestions as well. I submitted a proposal for creating a new module polytopes, a project idea suggested by Ondrej.
