This week I worked on the documentation of all the preceding subsystem I
worked on while following the timeline. I cleaned up the PODs with the help
of a new typemap for a vim written by Jonathan which made the testing far
easier. I also checked the html versions of the PODs with the pod2html
function. I think including html documentation inside the source would be a
good thing to simplify the access to the documentation and also to put it on
the web. This week I also added some more tests to some subsystem, including
Permutations. I included the Permute subsystem into the Permutation
subsystem to simplfy the usage of both. I changed the tests of some
subsystems from Test::Simple to Test::Class because it makes testing easier
on some functions.

I've learn various simples things this week such as how to remove files from
a git repository and using typemaps from swig. We've encountered some
problem concerning typemaps with swig and I spent 2 afternoon
working/understanding how to work with typemaps. Jonathan helped me a lot on
that part. I still have a problems on how to write a typemaps to return
value by an array but Jonathan will also help me on that part and I'll do
some more searching on my side.

The next week I'll work mainly on the CDF, Linear Algebra and Eigensystems
subsystems. Linear Algebra is a quite important subsystems since it contains
functions which can make much more complex operations on matrices.
