Comment (by tscrim):

 If Miguel thinks it is (now) mathematically solid, then I will do the
 final parts of the review over the next day or so.

 Some things from a quick lookthrough:

 - Is the definition of the writhe valid for links? Right now the
 documentation just says "of the knot".

 - Methods like `alexander_polynomial` could use elaboration in their
 documentation, such as their definition and/or references.

 - I want to create a separate class `Knot` inheriting from `Link` to make
 it easier for people expanding on this in the future (and there is already
 a method specifically for knots). Any objections to me doing this?

 (John just outposted me on the symlink :P ).
