Sage Days 6 Coding Sprints

List any and all project ideas here. Use the format

• (name) Project idea. If the idea is more than one line, make a [:/example: link like this (note the leading slash) to more info].

Here they are

• (wstein) Number fields -- Reduction modulo a prime ideal, or any ideal.
• (wstein) Number fields --optimize K([1,2,3]).
• (wstein) Timing of doctests (partially done)
• (wstein) Double question mark for spyx files doesn't work.; docstrings work.
• (wstein) Markup Cython code based on what C code it generates.
• (wstein) R Python expect interface

• (wstein) Redo all the "edwards coord" proofs in Sage instead of Magma. See email to sagedays6, along with http://hyperelliptic.org/EFD/edwards.html

• (wstein) Fix computing trace over \mathbf{F}_q algebraically.

• (wstein) ATLAS into Sage on Linux.
• (wstein) Linbox -- get rid of all the crappy hacks for minpoly/charpoly
• (wstein) Linbox -- fix wrapping of smith_form problems.
• (wstein) Create pickle database
• (wstein) Document number fields.

• (wstein) Compute kernels of matrices over \mathbf{Z}/p^n\mathbf{Z}.

• (Ondrej Certik) simplify/improve calculus in SAGE [:/calculus: see this link for more info]

• (mabshoff) fix BlasMatrix::Hom leak in LinBox

• (mabshoff) start of 2.8.13 release cycle
• (david harvey) try to improve cache efficiency of NTL's FFT routine
• (Bill Allombert) improve PARI ECM implementation
