I've never used sympy, but perhaps I should! Is this a tool meant to save people pages of math derivations, sort of like Maple? Is that how it's generally used?

- hansvm 6y agoThat's how I typically use it (though it has a whole lot more features). Using it in jupyter gives you a notebook environment too, which I really enjoy as I flesh out a problem.
- rusticpenn 6y agoYes, Sympy is supposed to be an alternative for MAple, Mathematica, sage etc.
- albertzeyer 6y agoYou can use it to do so (as an interactive tool). But it can also be useful as a library, when you develop sth where some symbolic derivation can be useful.
