some usage if needed..
this is my unittest file.
the lagrange and partial_derivative functions are in meca.py

import unittest
from sympy import *
import meca

class MyTest(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_lagrange_1(self):
        t = Symbol('t')
        x = Function('x')(t)
        y = Function('y')(t)
        dT_dqvt, dT_dq = meca.lagrange(diff(x, t)**2+diff(y, t)**2 + 5
* x, [x, y])

        dT_dqvt_0 = 2*diff(x, t, t)
        dT_dqvt_1 = 2*diff(y, t, t)

        self.assertEquals(dT_dqvt, [dT_dqvt_0, dT_dqvt_1])
        self.assertEquals(dT_dq, [5, 0])

    def test_lagrange_2(self):
        t = Symbol('t')
        k = Symbol('k')
        x = Function('x')(t)
        dT_dqvt, dT_dq = meca.lagrange(k*diff(x, t)**2 + k * x, [x])

        dT_dqvt_0 = 2*k*diff(x, t, t)

        self.assertEquals(dT_dqvt, [dT_dqvt_0])
        self.assertEquals(dT_dq, [k])

    def test_partial_derivative_1(self):
        t = Symbol('t')
        k = Symbol('k')
        x = Function('x')(t)
        dE_q = meca.partial_derivative(k*diff(x, t)**2 + k * x, x)
        dE_q_sol = k
        self.assertEquals(dE_q, dE_q_sol)

    def test_partial_derivative_2(self):
        t = Symbol('t')
        k = Symbol('k')
        x = Function('x')(t)
        dE_q = meca.partial_derivative(k*diff(x, t)**2 + k * x,
diff(x, t))
        dE_q_sol = 2*k*diff(x, t)
        self.assertEquals(dE_q, dE_q_sol)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()
