Comment(by whuss):

 Replying to [comment:5 burcin]:
 > Here are some suggested changes:
 >
 >  * rename all instances of the method to `sum` or `symbolic_sum`
 >  * you should import your function before the doctests in `calculus.py`
 to make sure you call the right function
 >  * it would be good to add a comment to #6197 pointing to the comment
 you have in `calculus.py`
 >  * you could add your code for converting MMA output back to Sage to a
 `_sage_()` method in `sage.interfaces.mathematica.MathematicaElement`, see
 the `MagmaElement` class in `sage.interfaces.magma` for an example,
 similarly for Maple output
 >  * In the last lines of the docstring for
 `sage.symbolic.expression.Expression.summation`, choosen -> chosen

 I posted a new patch that takes care of these issues.

 The second patch (sum.patch) renames summation to sum. This currently
 overwrites the python sum command.
