what do you mean with this? I would really like to understand the differences underlying the current SAGE's symbolic approach with respect to yours. I think that for the moment I will stick with SymPy, it being the only package with a reasonable support to transforms and staff like that. The problem with Maxima is that, apart for not having found any function related to this (maybe it's there in maxima/share, but I don't know whether it's well tested), I found rather complicated to interact with maxima from SAGE, when issues are not plain simple and straightforward (even "Assume()" is not always easy to use from SAGE, imho).

I don't know how SymPy is currently developed, but what is the roadmap for this staff? I am wondering if implementing a Fourier transform in Symbolics is just writing down the well known formula and hope for the integrating engine to perform the best :) Thanks again for the great work Regards Maurizio --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
