Re: [eigen] Numerical Integration module

[Jeff J <complexzeros@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sree,

I'm working to get my code in decent shape by the end of this week. It will use hard-coded doubles, but we should still be able to combine our code. I can work on custom scalars after that. Feel free to contact me at my personal email directly.

I have a working version of a code implementing the Laurie 1997 algorithm. You can find it at https://github.com/tbs1980/GaussKronrod . 

Jeff, may we should have a chat with each other on how to combine the codes. As Jitse suggested below, I am now reading the documentation on contributing to Eigen!

Thanks Sree! We can fork Eigen when we're ready to start combining our work.
I'm not sure how to go about submitting a new unsupported module. I guess
just follow the existing format and submit a pull request?

Yes, a pull request would probably be best.

I think you do not need to wait until the module has all the bells and whistles before you submit a pull request. I'd argue that it is better to work incrementally: implement a simple case (e.g. no custom scalars, fixed order, fixed and hard-coded abscissae), include some documentation and test cases, and submit a pull request for that. That should hopefully give you some feedback; at least with a pull request you can prod me and the other core developers to do something. Then you can extend to include all the nice functionality. All IMHO of course.
