Done, added my new proposal: https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Boost-Google-Summer-of-Code-2018#4-bo... 2018-01-20 12:13 GMT-05:00 Damian Vicino :

Hi David, I wonder if there would be any interest in a Computable Reals Library? I think it will be a great addition for scientific calculations.

The general idea is representing a number by an algorithm with random access to its digits, passing around the number and lazy accessing its digits to answer predicates. A good reference would be the Computable Calculus book by Oliver Aberth, and a good use case would be on Discrete-Event Simulators.

If there is interest, I can make a proposal for it. To scope it to something achievable in a GSOC, I would only propose to implement operators +, -, *, /, =, !=, <, and make proper documentation. The implementation should follow the algorithms proposed Aberth's book chapters 1 and 2.

Book for ref: - https://www.elsevier.com/books/computable-calculus/ aberth/978-0-08-050247-2 - https://books.google.ca/books?id=sDp0enu9iEUC&pg=PR4&lpg= PR4&dq=computable+calculus+library&source=bl&ots=I7MBVJZhEw&sig= b3ajmVjm74AATu4XhOEoXRCSbWw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwix1Mqfg- fYAhWi7YMKHcbzB2QQ6AEIVTAH#v=onepage&q&f=false

​Hi everyone,

still a few days before we submit our proposal to Google. Don't loose the chance to become a mentor for Boost. It shines on your CV, it is a great opportunity to work with brilliant students around the world, it makes you an official C++ world-wide expert​.

So far, we have a nice but little list of proposals here: https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Boost-Google-Summer-of-Code-2018

It would be good to have a bit more before I go and submit to Google. This will increase our chances to be selected again this year. For Boost it's a great funding worth several thousand of dollars every year. We just don't want to miss it.

Best regards, David

Hi Damian, sorry for the late reply. If you didn't move it yet, do it now. Google will start looking at our list on Monday night/Tuesday. The application is done already, but the project's list is still open. Cheers, David On Tue, Jan 23, 2018 at 1:58 PM, Damian Vicino via Boost < boost@lists.boost.org> wrote:

Hi David, I got a student (Laouen Belloli) interested in the Reals project. I talked with him yesterday and I already know his coding level, he was contributing to another c++ open source project I contribute (Cadmium simulator) . Should I move the project to prearranged section before you sent the final proposal for organizations today? Best regards, Damian

Ok,thanks! :) 2018-01-28 7:02 GMT-05:00 David Bellot via Boost :

Just did it for you in fact. No need to worry
