I ran some tests with the new routine. Without a simplify step at the end, the old method is faster, but because the symbolic output is much nicer from the new method, adding a simplify swings the time advantage towards the new method. I modified the print_tables method to print timing results; with the simplify step, the results are here: http://pastebin.com/phKfMdtu Time is in seconds for 100 iterations, the 1st time is the old method, and the 2nd time is the new method. The new method is faster than the old method more times than not and usually by much larger margins, especially for larger j. Between this and the fact that the new method gives results that are much more simplified, my vote is for this new method.
