Re: [sympy] Poly(..., domain='EX') - where is it documented?

2015-01-21 Thread Aaron Meurer
The domain argument is likely undocumented. The polys are unfortunately not so well documented, beyond the docstrings on the methods of Poly. You could also look at Mateusz Paprocki's master's thesis. Regarding rebuilding the docs, as far as I know Sphinx doesn't generate TOCs for methods. Maybe

Hi Francesco, I'm sorry for my long latency time. Concerning a Lie algebra defined by the structure constants: keep in mind this is a way often used in Physics, which is not very rigorous. Structure constants define an equivalence class of bases in a Lie algebra. For example, consider a

Not only make your variables real, give them a sign (positive, for example: var('x', positive=True) is real and positive). This might still not be enough to allow the sign to be determined, however...I kind of doubt that it will, but that is a step in the right direction. On Wednesday, January

[sympy] return types of solve?

I try to include sympy in teaching material. When doing this, the focus is not on programming nor implementation details. The CAS should be as transparent as possible. The CAS-using code should read like the math done in a textbook. I think sympy is very close to this. However, there are some

Thanks Chris. At most I can add aij to be real positive, the computation may still take unreasonable of time. I guess this task is unrealistic and numerical solution could be the only way. On Wednesday, January 21, 2015 at 5:09:19 PM UTC-5, Chris Smith wrote: Not only make your variables

It's a pretty well known issue with solve. dict=True is a decent workaround. You can also take a look at the new solveset (I don't remember if this was merged before the 0.7.6 release), which tries to make the return type of solve always be a Set object (this also will allow solve to return
