[guide to contributing to numpy](http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-dev/dev/index.html)
+ If you have contributed to other projects on GitHub you can go straight to our
[development workflow](http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-dev/dev/gitwash/development_workflow.html)

Either way, please be sure to follow our
[convention for commit messages](http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-dev/dev/gitwash/development_workflow.html#writing-the-commit-message).

If you are writing new C code, please follow the style described in
``doc/C_STYLE_GUIDE``.

Suggested ways to work on your development version (compile and run
