allowing nested parallelism in python multiprocessing

Right now the use of an archipelago with, for example, a bfe based algo will not work if python multiprocessing islands are used with a multiprocessing bfe. The reason is...

Misleading error message?

I believe here and elwhere in the pop constructor the kwarg ```size``` need renaming to ```pop_size``` https://github.com/esa/pygmo2/blob/be6c148b829f30bebf800cbc0dc4d78c1938f7c2/pygmo/__init__.py#L362

Adding the redirection of the standard output stream to python. This should allow users to see algorithms logs in verbosity mode also during jupyter sessions.

A simple planet object that returns always the same three coordinates as ephemerides. This simple planet (a fixed star) would derive from kep_toolbox::planets::base and reimplement the eph. Python exposition would...

When performing a truncated multiplication, the checks for the overflow in the exponents are not needed and actually harmful. As an example, when performing a substitution in a polynomial (say...

``` position=[10000000, 0,0] velocity=[0, -8000, 0] epoch=pk.epoch(0) prova=pk.planet.keplerian(pk.epoch(0),position,velocity,pk.MU_EARTH,1.0,1.0,1.0,"prova") prova.eph(pk.epoch(0))``` this returns nans! Note inclination here is 3.14, not zero as checked!

Adding geodesyNETs papers under a space application heading.

I was not sure were these works fit exactly. They use the gravitational signature to learn a 3D implicit representation of irregular bodies. As such they solve the Laplace equation...

Fill in all x_best and f_best and c_best (also for meta-problems)

5

Most problems in PaGMO do not have the best_x, best_f, best_c defined, even though the solution is known. Meta problems, at creation, should check if best_x, best_f, best_c are defined...

Define M_PI and M_PI_and M_E from boost

1

Right now the values M_PI, M_PI_4 and M_E are defined using boost only if they are not defined elsewhere. A better behaviour would be to introduce PAGMO_PI, PAGMO_PI_4 and PAGMO__E...

The IPython island is currently using an old syntax: ``` python from IPython.kernel import client mec = client.MultiEngineClient() ``` from (https://github.com/esa/pagmo/blob/master/PyGMO/test/__init__.py#L88) or ... ``` python from IPython.kernel.client import TaskClient, MapTask...
