[SciPy-Dev] data rankings

[Moritz Emanuel Beber]

Dear all,

I recently had to rank some data and I came across the 
scipy.stats.rankdata function. It didn't quite do what I wanted (using 
the terminology of this wikipedia page 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranking it performs 'fractional' ranking) 
so I went ahead and wrote functions for the other types of rankings.

So, is there any interest in my contributing this code? If yes, can you 
point me to guidelines on how to submit it? I didn't find any hints for 
that online.

Cheers,
Moritz
