Hi. The reason is simple enough. I plan to do some academic research related to computer algebra for which i need some package which i can call as a library. Since i am not going to use the package myself..(rather my program will)..it will be helpful to have a python package since i wanted to write the thing in python. if none is available then probably i will need to work on an interface to some package written in some other language or work in that language itself. rahul Kay Schluehr wrote: > Rahul wrote: > > Hi. > > Well is there an open source computer algebra system written in python > > or at least having a python interface? > > I know of 2 efforts: pythonica and pyginac...are there any others? > > > > rahul > > Not in the moment.
