It's not Python, but from what I have heard, R is pretty good. If you find yourself doing symbolic computations (algebra, integrals, and so on), SymPy will be the best way to go for Python. We also seem to have some statistics in sympy/statistics. See http://docs.sympy.org/modules/statistics.html and the source.
Or, if this doesn't help, maybe you should be more specific. I admit that the extent of my probability and statistics knowledge is about a week and a half of a course that I am currently taking. :) Aaron Meurer On Jan 27, 2010, at 2:25 PM, Gael Varoquaux wrote: > On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 03:22:43PM -0600, Anthony Palomba wrote: >> I am not sure what symbolic function that might be. > >> I am asking has anyone here used sympy to do probability... > >> How easy is it to do?
