</div>Some quick points:<br>
<br>

augment) those to test your work rather than writing your own.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thank you for that information Robert, I didn't realize this.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
- Three modules for a whole summer seems a bit weak, especially for<br>
someone who already knows Cython. Target at least one module/week<br>
seems like a good pace; some will be quickies, others might take 40+<br>

What I'd like to see is an implementation of a single simple but not<br>
entirely trivial (e.g. not math) module, passing regression tests with<br>
comprable if not better speed than the current C version (though I<br>
think it'd probably make sense to start out with the Python version<br>
and optimize that). E.g. <a href="http://docs.python.org/library/json.html" target="_blank">http://docs.python.org/library/json.html</a><br>
looks like a good candidate. That should only take 8 hours or so,<br>
maybe two days at most, given your background. I'm not expecting<br>
anything before the application deadline, but if you could whip<br>
something like this out in the next week to point to that would help<br>
your application out immensely. In fact, one of the Python<br>
foundation's requirements is that students submit a patch before being<br>
accepted, and this would knock out that requirement and give you a<br>
chance to prove yourself. Create an account on <a href="https://github.com" target="_blank">https://github.com</a> and<br>
commit your code into a new repository there.<br>
