We present the main algorithmic and design choices that have been made to represent complexes and compute persistent homol- ogy in the Gudhi library. The Gudhi library (Geometric Understand- ing in Higher Dimensions) is a generic C++ library for computational topology. Its goal is to provide robust, e
