Alright, so for the SymPy changes, I'll better document the code. Also, I was planning on using namedtuples instead of the plain tuples that I currently am using just to make it clearer what the data represents.
For Gamma, should I remove the notebook? It doesn't work anymore (I don't think it did when I first checked out the code, either) and I think it overlaps with SymPy Live. As for the error with sin(x), I didn't import that function - that's why. I think the error with x+y is being caused by Gamma since it parses just fine in SymPy. I'll look into those and make a pull request.
