I'm new to sympy and pouring through the documentation. I don't understand 
the "pattern" part of the argument to rewrite. The following portion of 
a session illustrates my question:

>>> f=sin(x)+cos(y)/gamma(z)
>>> f.rewrite(exp)
-I*(exp(I*x) - exp(-I*x))/2 + (exp(I*y)/2 + exp(-I*y)/2)/gamma(z)
>>> f.rewrite(sin,exp)
-I*(exp(I*x) - exp(-I*x))/2 + (exp(I*y)/2 + exp(-I*y)/2)/gamma(z)

Why does rewrite(sin,exp) also rewrite the cos(...) part of the expression 
when it has been explicitly given "sin" as the pattern to rewrite?
