Show HN: Combinatorics.js – Combinatorics JavaScript Library

I was recently using js-combinatorics https://github.com/dankogai/js-combinatorics

Worth taking a look, if anything, to gauge various functionality.

I've seen that project before starting combinatorics.js. It is a useful library, however, I felt that it was a little basic for what Combinatorics research needs. I would like to dive deeper, implementing such objects like Posets, Paths (Dyck paths and the like), and enumerative sets.

js-combinatorics is a great starting point though.

This is pretty sweet. I'd be interested in contributing to this. What steps should I take to doing so besides forking and sifting through the source?

Thanks for checking it out and wanting to contribute!

So, in my opinion, the best way is to look at the roadmap (on the README) and pick interesting functions you would want to implement. If you are unfamiliar with any topics, feel free to either create an issue and we could discuss it there (I don't know any other option for this type of forum), or independently research it.

Since I just started this project, I haven't fully written good documentation on contributing, so if anything is unclear, please let me know so I can fix it!
