How many of them were in fact about polynomials? My impression is that
it happens relatively often that people use symbolic variables in the

For completeness I did a similar topic statistics
over the last 50 symbolics questions on ask.sagemath:
solve (general nonalgebraic)15 (of which 5 of inequalities)
simplify, substitute, rewrite9

Thanks
I'd be happy with any progress on symbolics, and Ralf did already a great
job there!
Just to spell out the obvious, software engineers are actually sought-after
by industry (unlike mathematicians, let's face it). If you want to hire a
top-notch engineer who's in it for the money then you'll ha
To answer more precisely: the engineers who will be recruited will be
engineers and not mathematician, so they will work mostly on
non-mathematical improvement. For the mathematical content, we will still
rely on the good will of researchers (even though, some of our time is also
given to OpenDream
