Hi Can anyone recommend a way to simplify following expression?
(-1)**(1/4)*sqrt(-I)/2 I would like it to return 1/2 although various methods return different equivalent expressions. i.e. - sp.N(_) = 0.5 # note: I don't wish to evaluate it, here - sp.expand_complex(_) = 0.353553390593274*sqrt(2) - sp.simplify(_) = 0.353553390593274*sqrt(-I)*(1 + I) - sp.powsimp(_) = sqrt(-I)*(0.353553390593274 + 0.353553390593274*I) Thanks Blair -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
