Well, you should at least add examples in the form of regtests, and in case of something like Bezier::solve_point it would make sense to take stock of what there is on the C++ side and see whether Bezier::solve_point would make sense as an integral part of a larger whole that gives a convenient toolbox in connection with other Bezier-related functionality, and then plot what that whole should entail. Basically try to aim for something making sense as a whole and not just for supporting your particular application that is so specialised that it does not make sense as a MR. -- David Kastrup
