PyCon India was fun indeed, here are some feedback from the workshop: * Many of the workshop participants asked how does SymPy compare with other CAS like Mathematica, Maple and Matlab. We should update the SymPy vs X docs on the wiki.
* The workshop was over represented by Data Scientists and they were particularly interested in Stats module. For them our workshop was the first introduction of SymPy and Symbolic Computation. * One participant who works on Computer Vision is interested in SymPy's differential geometry capabilities and our modules on manifolds and Lie Algebras. I told him about the work of Mary Clark [1] but I have only a surface level understanding of these areas so I couldn't talk a lot. I've cc'ed him on this post, it will be really nice if someone on this group can give an overview about what SymPy can and cannot do in these areas. * Younger participants who are still in the university were very enthusiastic about SymPy because it participates in GSoC, some of them also send a few patches after PyCon. * Arrange a lot of flash drives with the latest SymPy source before the workshop begins. -- Harsh [1]: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSOC-Report-2013-Mary-Clark:-Lie-Algebras -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
