In a recent write-up, [David Delony] explains how he built a Wolfram Mathematica-like engine with Python. Core to the system is SymPy for symbolic math support. [David] said being able to work ...

If the mention of algebra conjures bad memories of math classes, a Python library called SymPy could change your mind about the subject. With SymPy, algebraic operations become easier than tedious ...

Imagine that there is a need to simulate dice throwing many times in this game. A function could be used, rather than typing in this same code repeatedly throughout the program. To create a function, ...
