Online Math Solver Example

This project is an intentionally incomplete online math solver.

Motivation

This repository was created to help mathematicians in the graduate-level Purdue course "Fundamentals of Programming For Mathematicians" learn the basics of GitHub - specifically, how to:

• Fork Projects
• Collaborate with peers using GitHub
• Create and use topical branches
• Push code to GitHub
• Submit pull requests to contribute to projects

How-To

This project is meant to be used by a small group.

One user will fork the project using the GitHub fork button, and invite the other users to be collaborators.

Users will create feature branches specific to each new solver they write.

Then, as a group, they will merge them into their forked project's master branch.

To finish the project, students in the course will submit a pull request to this main project.

Installation

To install, clone the repository with git clone as described in class.

Then, install the requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

And launch the solver_website.py file:

python solver_website.py

Then open your web browser to the server, likely localhost:5000.
