Concerning numpy: pypy already has a numpy implementation that covers more than what sympy uses. Moreover PyPy provides a high performance C-api that also works in CPython. Finally, even these libraries which (due to the use of the CPython C-api) do not work directly under pypy can be used in pypy with a (very hackish) embedding of the CPython interpreter. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
