If you like mathematics, you'll probably enjoy better to improve the
equation solving support, i'd say, but that's up to you :).

Regarding Analitza, it's not that much about adding unit tests. What I
meant with this is that the workflow is the following:
- I want to support 2nd degree equation solving
- I add different 2nd degree cases and their solution
- These should fail (otherwise it's already implemented :D)
- Then you code it
- These unit tests should pass

Feel free to contact me if you have any doubt about that. If you want
to figure out what your work would look like you can look into the
Analyzer::findRoots* methods.

Please note that these proposals are just proposals, if you want to do
something different, that would be good as well.

Another interesting project that comes to my mind now is to support
unit conversions somehow integrated with the system.

I'd like to leave it up to you, so that you do what you want to do.
