We present an algorithm for microscopic modeling of superconducting states of arbitrary pairing symmetry via an implementation of self-consistent perturbation theory, the fluctuation exchange approximation (FLEX), applied to Hubbard-like models. Like the original formulation of FLEX, all ring diagrams that are generated with the bare interaction vertex are included in the generating functional for the self-energy. Thus, this algorithm is suitable for FLEX-based Hubbard model calculations in both the attractive and repulsive cases.
