Idea for GSoC 2013

["M.S. Suraj" <mssurajkaiga gmail com>]

Hi,

 I'm Suraj, an engg. undergrad from India. I have an idea for developing an interactive application (particularly aimed at school and college students) that implements mathematical problem solving and graphing. I wish for the following features:

1. Simultaneous equation solving

2. Solving optimization problems

3. Matrix operations

4. Solving calculus based problems

5. Graphing for above functions

6. Integration with word processors for report generation

The primary feature would be to provide a good responsive GUI, with features like providing a system for user to input equations either using a graphical keyboard utility or asking them to enter notations which are displayed the way we write them usually, for ex. while typing 'x^2 + y^2', the terms would automatically displayed in the input bar the way we write on paper( it can't be shown here).

I had sent the above proposal to gnome-mailing list where I was told to contact 'gnumeric', 'gcalctool' and other related GNOME modules that work on ideas related to my proposal.

PS: Please excuse me if I have posted in the wrong place.
