Post Syndicated from original https://lwn.net/Articles/840986/rss

On November 29, version 1.7 of SymPy, a Python library for
symbolic mathematics, was released. The new version brings a large number
of enhancements and bug fixes, and some minor backward
incompatibilities. While these are enumerated in detail in the release
notes
, we will take advantage of this opportunity to look at some of
the things that can be done with SymPy and explore its interface options
through several detailed examples.
