I am also a student and I think what can help me most is an idea of what is needed next.What libraries need to developed next. Yes now we have the Boost.Math Generalized Hyper geometric Functions I feel that I really have nothing objective when I just compile the code and cross my fingers for errors to occur *I know they won't*. I bet you can advice me on how am I supposed to look into this,what do you as the author of the library thinks need more effort? Well that would be really helpfull On Mon, Feb 3, 2014 at 11:27 PM, Christopher Kormanyos <e_float@yahoo.com>wrote:
Well, one potential first step would be to see if you can start working with the detailed sample code provided in the link on the GSoC projects page.
It's a lot of heavy code, almost 1,000 lines, but it's clean and well commented.
Try to compile the code.
We just fixed a minor bug with GCC 4.8.1 today, so we should be good to go on that sample file for, say GCC 4.6-ish through GCC 4.8.2, and VC10 through VC12.
I only used a few C++11 features such as lambdas.
See if you can pull the file and get it to run on a compiler of your choice.
Best regards, Chris.

Hey, I am a sophomore student of Computer Science Department, IIT Kanpur, India. I have been going through the boost libraries for quite some time now, and also have read through the proposed GSoC projects in 2014. I am especially interested in the Boost.Math Generalized Hyper geometric Functions. Though I have gone through the links provided under that project and am trying to become versed with Boost's Math library, I am finding it difficult to find a starting point to contributing.
I would be really glad if someone could help me in the initial phase by directing me to the right starting point and guide me through.
Thanks
