Stefan, I think I disagree about Reference Frames being immutable. If you are going to create a series of Reference Frames when performing successive rotations, you are going to need to need to be able to modify the original frame to point to the new frames. There is a similar issue for setting the

@Stefan. I agree about the tree traversals part. However, I still feel there must be a way for the user to check if two scalar fields expressed in different ways are mathematically equivalent. Could you suggest a way? Maybe just another function? Also, have a look at the __eq__ function of the curr

@Gilbert > If you have the same scalar field, written in a rectangular coordinate system as x * y * z and in a spherical coordinate system as r*sin(theta)*cos(phi) * r*sin(theta)*sin(phi) * r*cos(theta), and these two coordinate systems have the same orientation and origin, the scalar fields shoul

+1. I added one or two comments, they are mostly just clarifications. But I guess we agree on the basics now. I will post some hand-written scanned stuff about the math of Stefan's stress test on my blog in a day, mainly to clarify things in my own mind as well. Prasoon, could you expand on the con
