Is it true that Python is the featured programming language on the XO?
I mean, easy to access and used in education? Due to the XO
constraints, sympy might be better to look into as a local library for
maths. Sage might be better as a central server and all access it
though the web. Since they are similar, there is a huge convergence
effect in both directions.
