[psoc-2008] week 2 report - Math::GSL

[Thierry Moisan]

This week I worked on Vector, Matrix, Complex and Permutation. I added a lot
of documentation to Complex in particular and I think it will be a good
reference for other subsystems documentation. However I still need to
understand how to write POD in more clean way and how to make it more HTML
usable. As Jonathan pointed me earlier today, the documentation is what is
the user sees the most of the module and the quality of what we do will be
mainly seen by how to documentation looks/works.

This week I also realized that I'm getting a lot faster with vim. The
command are getting natural and Jonathan gave me some new bindings for
running the tests for the subsystems directly from vim (with coloration in
bonus!) I'm also getting familiar with how Test::Class works, the setup and
teardown part in particular are really useful. I'm getting used to put map
everywhere I would have used a for or while loop. I was a bit suspicious
about it's utility at first but I went over that feeling and I couldn't code
in Perl without it now.

I added a lot of tests to mostly all the subsystems I worked on this week.
Next week I'll concentrate more on the documentation part, on the other
subsytems that are planed in the timeline for that week and on some issues
which could be solved with swig typemaps.
