This PR includes multiple bug fixes and robustness improvements related to Ecopath/Rpath and Ecosim handling:\n\n- rpath: safer GE/PB/QB computation to avoid divide-by-zero; small defaults for missing PB/QB/biomass so minimal models can be balanced.\n- Solvers: added robust fallbacks and a pure-Python Gaussian solver for small systems to avoid low-level BLAS/LAPACK crash paths.\n- Stanzas: fixed indexing and initialization issues; made stanza init more robust to edge cases.\n- App: preserved explicit zero edits in ecopath UI, and treated blanks/None as NaN.\n- Tests: added/updated tests for ecopath input conversion, ecosim stanza and qlink behavior.\n- Docs: updated CHANGELOG.md with Unreleased entry describing the fixes.\n\nLocal focused tests (ecopath/ecosim) pass. CI will run across the matrix and report any platform-specific failures. Please review the test changes and the changelog.

- Added get_logger() function for module-specific loggers

CRITICAL FIXES:
1. home.py:
   - Added DEFAULTS import
   - Replaced hardcoded values with config constants:
     * Line 484: 120 -> DEFAULTS.default_months
     * Line 544: 0.2 -> DEFAULTS.unassim_consumers
     * Lines 545-546: 0.0 -> DEFAULTS.unassim_producers

2. validation.py:

…e diagnostics

ISSUE:
Prebalance diagnostics crashed with KeyError: 'TL' when running on unbalanced models.
Unbalanced models (RpathParams) don't have TL column - it's calculated during balancing.

ERROR TRACE:
```
KeyError: 'TL'
  File "prebalance.py", line 338, in generate_prebalance_report
    report['biomass_slope'] = calculate_biomass_slope(model)
  File "prebalance.py", line 42, in calculate_biomass_slope
    df = df[df['Biomass'] > 0].sort_values('TL')
```

SOLUTION:
Added _calculate_trophic_levels() helper function that computes TL on-the-fly for
unbalanced models using iterative diet-weighted method.

IMPLEMENTATION:
- New function: _calculate_trophic_levels(model) -> pd.Series
  * Initializes producers (Type=1) to TL=1.0
  * Iteratively calculates consumer TL = 1 + weighted_avg(prey_TL)
  * Converges after max 50 iterations (tolerance: 0.001)
  * Returns Series indexed by group name

- Updated 3 functions to calculate TL if missing:
  * calculate_biomass_slope() - lines 109-111
  * plot_biomass_vs_trophic_level() - lines 296-298
  * plot_vital_rate_vs_trophic_level() - lines 363-365

TESTING:
- Syntax validation: passed
- User tested: diagnostics now run successfully on uploaded .eweaccdb file

BENEFITS:
- Pre-balance diagnostics now work on unbalanced models (as intended)
- No changes needed to balanced models (TL column already present)
- Trophic level calculation matches Ecopath methodology

…dation

HIGH PRIORITY FIXES from comprehensive codebase review:

1. REMOVED DEBUG PRINT STATEMENTS (CRITICAL)
   Files: app/app.py, app/pages/prebalance.py

   - app.py line 218: Replaced print() with logger.error()
   - prebalance.py line 303: Replaced print() + traceback with logger.error(exc_info=True)
   - prebalance.py line 560: Same fix for diagnostic plot errors
   - Added logging import and logger initialization in both files

   Impact: Debug output no longer visible to users in production

2. ADDED INPUT VALIDATION FOR CELL EDITS (HIGH PRIORITY)
   File: app/pages/ecopath.py

   Cell Edit Validation Improvements:
   - Import validation functions: validate_biomass, validate_pb, validate_ee
   - Model Parameters Table (_handle_model_params_edit):
     * Validate Biomass values (negative check, max check)
     * Validate P/B ratios (negative check, type-specific max)
     * Validate EE values (0-1 range check)
     * Show success notification on valid edit
     * Show warning notification with details on invalid edit
     * Show error notification on non-numeric input

   - Diet Matrix Table (_handle_diet_matrix_edit):
     * Validate diet proportions (0-1 range)
     * Prevent negative diet values
     * Prevent diet values > 1.0
     * Show feedback for all edit attempts

   Previous Behavior: Silent failure - users had no idea edits failed
   New Behavior: Clear notifications for success, warnings, and errors

BENEFITS:
- Professional error handling (logging instead of print statements)
- User feedback on all data entry
- Data integrity enforcement
- Better debugging capability

TESTING:

Created detailed analysis of PyPath Shiny application identifying inconsistencies,
optimizations, and potential bugs across 20+ source files.

REVIEW SUMMARY:
- Issues Found: 20 (3 High, 9 Medium, 8 Low priority)
- Issues Fixed: 2 High priority (print statements, input validation)
- Issues Remaining: 18

HIGH PRIORITY FIXES COMPLETED:
1. Removed debug print() statements (4 instances)
2. Added input validation for cell edits (biomass, P/B, EE, diet)

ISSUES IDENTIFIED:
- Race condition in reactive effects
- Inconsistent config import patterns (8+ files)
- DataFrame operation inefficiency (O(n) passes)
- Cell styling O(n\u00b2) complexity
- Repeated model type detection code
- Missing cached reactive values
- SharedData sync inconsistency
- Incomplete error messages
- Magic numbers not in config
- Missing docstrings
- TODO comments in core code

RECOMMENDATIONS BY PRIORITY:
- High: Fix race condition (data integrity)
- Medium: Optimize performance (30-50% improvement possible)
- Low: Documentation, naming consistency, cleanup

NEXT STEPS:
1. Fix race condition in ecopath.py
2. Consolidate config import patterns
3. Optimize DataFrame/cell styling operations
4. Improve error messages

IMPACT ASSESSMENT:
- User Experience: Significantly improved with validation
- Developer Experience: Better logging and error handling
- Performance: Baseline (optimizations pending)
- Code Quality: Improved from fixes, more work needed

See document for detailed findings, code examples, and specific recommendations.

I ran focused tests locally and implemented additional robustness fixes and unit test adjustments. The current branch includes the CHANGELOG entry and tests; focused ecopath/ecosim tests pass locally. CI will validate the rest of the matrix please let me know if you'd like me to address any CI failures immediately.
