Hi Stephen,
If you want to list all sympy symbols that you have created in a Python
script, one straightforward way is to use Python’s built-in globals() to
scan the current namespace and check for instances of sympy.Symbol.
Here's a simple example to illustrate:
>>> from sympy import Symbol>>> from sympy.abc import a, b, c
>>> x = Symbol('x')
>>> y = Symbol('y')
>>> z = 3 # this is not a SymPy symbol
>>> symbols_used = [name for name, obj in globals().items() if isinstance(obj,
>>> Symbol)]>>> print("Symbols used :", symbols_used)
This would output:
Symbols used : ['a', 'b', 'c', 'x', 'y']
But do let me know if you are looking for something more specific. Happy to
help further!
Best regards,
Krishnav Bajoria.
