Comment (by bhutz):
Also commenting on the projective_morphism code line 3002-3014 as I helped
review that: Except for the unused list variable rem_indices this code is
doing exactly what is it supposed to:
Given a list of periodic points get rid of any that have period less than
n, i.e., if you want the minimal 4 periodic points, go through and remove
the fixed points and the 2 periodic points.
Hence the variable j is walking through the iterates (up to n) of each
point indexed by i. Since the list is traversed in reverse order, the pop
doesn't break it. I'm not saying that there isn't a better way to do this,
but the code does do its intended task. Perhaps some additional code
comments are in order there so that people can more easily decipher it.
