Hi all,
I've been using SymPy quite a bit as I prepare a basic course in numerical
and symbolic computation for engineers. Along the way, I hit a strange
problem:
>>> from sympy import *
>>> a, b = symbols('a b')
>>> solve([pi**2*a-b, b-1], [a, b])
which leads to an error with a final message of
NotAlgebraic: pi doesn't seem to be an algebraic element
The same system is solved as expected with linsolve:
>>> linsolve([pi**2*a-b, b-1], a, b)
{(pi**(-2), 1)}
I understand that solve is on its way out (based on the documentation), but
I thought it relevant to point out. Is this a bug? Something else?
Jeremy
