Hi

I am interested to work on Symbolic Control Systems project listed on the GSOC Ideas Page. I study mathematics part-time at the Singapore University of Social Science.

I have been using Sympy to automate my mathematical procedures for homework and exam over the last 2 semesters, so I truly appreciate the great work the Sympy community has put up so far. As such, I want to contribute back to the community.

The textbook link from Caltech CDS is no longer valid. Any chance, is the textbook called Feedback Systems by Karl Astrom and Richard Murray? I believe the updated link is

I would like to know what does 175/350h mean since GSOC gives me the impression that it would be a 12-week project.


Cheers
Donald

Also I am accustomed to planning weekly sprints so I do need to size the tasks so I can write a proposal.

Hi Donald,

Good to hear you enjoyed using SymPy and like to contribute back. I've updated the link in the GSoC idea.

Since a few years, it is also possible to do a longer GSoC project. The minimum project span is 175 hours, which you can spread across 12 weeks and the maximum project span is 350 hours for which you can also take a bit longer. At least this is what I remember from doing my GSoC within SymPy two years ago.

Kind regards,
Timo
