Description

Some topics that are available to be worked on

Code Library

Notebooks

  • Fix up errors in 2 x DiscreteDP Julia notebooks
  • Port python notebooks to julia equivalents in QuantEcon.notebooks() (ref #113)

Infrastructure

  • Improve testing infrastructure by running Julia notebooks and checking for any runtime errors. QuantEcon.applications contains some starting code which is used to run python notebooks using the runipy project

Research direction
Check the current state of the QuantEcon.jl repository to see if these tasks are still relevant. Look at the existing DiscreteDP implementation in Julia (likely in src/discrete dp.jl) and compare with Python version. Review the linked issue #45 for CompEcon merge details. Investigate the testing infrastructure in QuantEcon.applications for running notebooks.
