Hello,
I have been watching the lectures of Susskind's "Theoretical Minimum"
course, and using Sympy with IPython notebook to take notes, and work
through some of the examples.
Sympy is serious overkill for this purpose, but overall it has been working
well.
A couple of questions:
- What is the best way to deal with dynamics variables and the dot
convention for printing? (In physics, the first time derivative of x is
often written as \dot{x} instead of dx/dt.) Is there an easy way to get
IPython notebook to print dynamics variables using the dot convention, and
still give the nice LaTeX-rendered equations? If I use vprint (from
physics.vector), I get the variables with primes, but just a text
rendering of the equations.
- I notice sympy.physics.mechanics.LagrangesMethod and
sympy.calculus.euler.euler_equations both implement Lagrangian mechanics.
Is one of these more "official" than the other? Both seem to work for the
very simple examples I have tried.
Thanks
