as well as a Groebner basis implementation, and a multivariate

Well, both are in Sympow:

Re: [sage-devel] Re: Could someone point me to the code that supports math on symbolic equations?

2020-05-25 Thread rjf
You haven't provided enough information about your environment, but it is
generally feasible to acquire data in Maxima from a file or a socket or a 
stream.
Or compute numerical stuff, generate random numbers, read from a
keyboard, web page...etc.

Given that you are familiar with a particular programming language (here, 
Python)
that is not a symbolic math system your approach probably is structured as 
follows:

   Your (mostly already written?) python program
 does stuff  A 
  then somehow calls your symbolic math program as a subroutine on data 
B 
 then does something with the returned answer  C

.  There are a few questions here:  your program must format something
to be input to the symbolic math program.  It could be a string, or maybe
something that looks like a tree with pointers, or lisp list.  Any of these
forms may be tricky to produce correctly. You need to know about the 
symbolic math pgm.

Later, your program must receive an answer from the symbolic program.
Maybe it is just  "true"  or 43.  But if it is a symbolic expression, then
it is maybe a string or a tree with pointers.  Or maybe you are just
displaying it?? Anyway, you may need to know even more about the symbolic 
math pgm.

Generally, it may be tricky for your program to accept the answer.

(this is really a standard question for the ages --  
Physicist:  can you do symbolic math for me.

Computer scientist:   OK, we can compute "sin(x)*exp(x^2)"  
  What are you going to do with this in your Fortran program?
Physicist:  uh, evaluate it at x=.1, .2, .3 ...
Computer scientist:  you mean to call a compiler??  you can just
let the symbolic math program do the evaluation, write it into a file,
or just plot the curve directly..
Physicist: You can do all that?  But my program runs ... < excuses...>
)


So you are possibly committing yourself to writing a parser,
a string output display,  calling a compiler??? ... what else?

Here's another structure:

Start up Maxima and load a program that does "stuff A".   It might
even do "stuff A" by calling Python.  Maxima is written in Lisp,
and there are ways of calling Python.  Or the code could be
written in Lisp (compiled, maybe faster than Python?) or in the
Maxima language.

  Any of these languages can acquire info from a user, if
that is what is in your task. Error checking of symbolic
formula input is already written.

  Having done stuff A, the symbolic part is ready to roll..
What to do with the answer? 
 Whatever.   Maxima can decompose the answer, or display
it or write to a file ... If it is
necessary to run in Python, it is again possible to
call Python.  (And hand it a string or lisp/maxima structure).
If python is called,   It can return to Maxima, and Maxima can loop back
for the next iteration.

.
If you absolutely have to have Python as "the boss"  you could still do 
this:

Start up a python system that does almost nothing but initialize
Maxima and call it.
   Then use the structure outlined above.

For what it is worth, I have directly called python library routines
(interfaces to multiple-precision arithmetic, as it happens) from lisp.
Whether this approach is feasible is probably not a technical
question -- just depends on what you are comfortable doing.

It may be too late to consider this kind of change, and it may be
a bad fit for your application for some other reason.  In which
case maybe think about this for your next project.

If you insist on calling the symbolic math program as a subroutine,
perhaps the simplest interface is to invoke Maxima on some input
from a command line.  If your task is simple enough.

2020-05-24 Thread Jonathan
Although a good idea, I don't think I can make it simple enough to set up 
inside a data acquisition environment that depends on Python. This would 
require installing Maxima and all the connector software. The people using 
this are unlikely to do anything that requires more than a `pip 
install...`. Once Sagemath can cleanly install using pip, this problem will 
be solved on systems with enough processing power and memory. I've almost 
get everything needed working already. I will post a link to the github 
repository as soon as I post the first version.

Thanks to all for the suggestions.

It seems to me that the obvious thing is not to extract parts from 
SageMath, but
just use Maxima, which is a part, but also an entire symbolic math system, 

Your example looks like this:   ( assignment is ":"   equations use "=".  a 
command is terminated by ";" )

eq1 : p*V = n*r*t ;
eq1/V;

   returns p = (n*r*t)/V

One can install SageMath from Conda on Linux and macOS.

Conda does have Sagemath available.
Not 100% sure how it works on Windows, though.

We're planning for this year to get Sagemath pip-installable too.
