    🙌 Thanks I'd like to give

    • To @kgryte for helping me figure out proper handling of optional parameters.

    ✅ Updates from last week

    🧑🎓 One thing I learned last week

    • I learned how to handle optional parameters in a function argument so that it remains deterministic and does not have to change according to multiple cases.

    🔭 My plan for the current week

    • I plan on working on ml/strided/sgd-trainer and packages surrounding it.

    🙏 Challenges that I've faced and things I'd like help with

    • I had a hard time figuring out implementing ml/strided/sgd-trainer

    🏝️ My availability for next week

    • I'll be off on 30th and 31st July, 1st and 2nd August.

    ✅ Updates from last week

    I worked on adding real and complex valued precision variants of blas/ext/base/*triu (in progress)

    🕵️ Pull requests I reviewed

    I reviewed and provided feedback on the following PRs:
    #2839 : blas/base/sspmv
    #2840 : blas/base/dspmv
    #11087 : blas/base/dsymv

    🧑‍🎓 One thing I learned last week

    • I learned how the symmetric matrix-vector routines (sspmv/dspmv/dsymv) exploit symmetry to touch each stored triangular element only once: per outer iteration they keep two accumulators, temp1 = alpha*x[j] scatters that element's contribution into the other y entries, while temp2 gathers the mirrored contribution back into y[j].

    🔭 My plan for the current week

    I plan on working on:

    • Add real and complex precision packages for *triu
    • Add real and complex precision packages for *tril
    • Refactor pending C implementation PRs for level 2 BLAS routines, if any are open
    • Add generic level 2 packages like gspr, gspmv, gsymv if I get the bandwidth

    🙏 Challenges that I've faced and things I'd like help with

    • None this week.

    🏝️ My availability for next week

    • I'll be available all of next week.

    💬 Important items for discussion

    • Nothing at the moment.

    ✅ Updates from last week

    • I worked on the dorglq routine and dormqr routine(work in progress).

    🕵️ Pull requests I reviewed

    None

    🔭 My plan for the current week

    • I plan on working on finishing off dormqr routine and work on dormlq and dlasq1 routine. As I was moving to my college, the work pace got a bit slow. But I will speed things up this week onward.

    🙏 Challenges that I've faced and things I'd like help with

    • I had a hard time figuring out why I am facing such high maxULP difference in the tests for dorglq routine.

    🏝️ My availability for next week

    • I'll be available

    ✅ Updates from last week

    • I worked on the dptts2 and dlagts (WIP) routines.

    🕵️ Pull requests I reviewed

    🧑🎓 One thing I learned last week

    • I learned the differences between dptts2 and dgtts2 and how each routine solves tridiagonal linear systems.

    🔭 My plan for the current week

    • I plan to work on dlaln2, dlagts, dlantr, and dgbtf2 this week.

    🙏 Challenges that I've faced and things I'd like help with
