The advent of computers has allowed mathematicians to do increasingly more difficult computations that used to be practically impossible. Peer reviewers will seldom look at any code attached to a math paper, however. In this article, we advocate for a software peer-reviewing process and will discuss some best practices for reviewers on how to peer review mathematical papers with code and providing guidelines for authors to improve the code that accompanies their mathematical paper.
