Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016 : Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

Jayson, Sanya, I have read 9937 and I suggest that there is room for a simplified vector class that is suitable for what I would call textbook examples (and more for the right class of problems) where one does not have to worry about transformations from one coordinate system to another, but for t

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016 : Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

This is a very relevant pull request: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/9937 I would recommend reading that and talking about it. Jason moorepants.info +01 530-601-9791 On Wed, Mar 23, 2016 at 7:53 PM, Alan Bromborsky wrote: > Sanya, > > Also only say that you will do the rectangular, cylin

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016 : Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

Sanya, Also only say that you will do the rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems for sure in the allotted time and the rest only if time permits. Do not overcommit yourself. Almost everything in program development takes longer than you think it will even if you are using pyt

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016 : Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

Sanya, You need to expand the idea part of your proposal. it should be much more than copying our idea post. You need to explain what you propose to do: what, how, why, etc. It is good to show some example code (pseudo or what you hope the future api will look like). Jason moorepants.info +01 53

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016 : Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

Thank You @brombo :) I have made some changes in my proposal here . I hope I did not miss anything this time. Thanks and Regards, Sanya On Wednesday, Mar

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016 : Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

Please note the rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical are not the only orthogonal coordinate systems in 3d, see - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_coordinates A unified approach (h_1, h_2, and h_3 functions in link) might be of value. On Tue, Mar 22, 2016 at 12:34 PM, Sanya Khurana wr

Hi Since I am new to GSoC, this is the first time I will be submitting a proposal. I will be really grateful if someone can review my proposal here and

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016: Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

Maybe we should change approach to the coordinate systems. Implementing the code inside the *vector* module may end up messing up everything. What about a separate module to handle coordinate system properties in a new-style assumption manner? One could have assumptions like: - Qcoord.is_sp

Re: [sympy] GSoC 2016: Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors

The link for the scale factors for all 3D separable coordinate systems is - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_coordinates#Table_of_orthogonal_coordinates If you are going to due one you might as well do all of them. On Sat, Mar 5, 2016 at 3:44 PM, Jason Moore wrote: > Here is a pull req

Hi, I am Adarsh Saraf, a first year M.Tech(Computer Science) student with the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning from India. I would be interested in working for the project: 'Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems for vectors' as part of GSoC 2016. I would like to know

There is some work on this here: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/9937 You can start by reviewing that pull request. Jason moorepants.info +01 530-601-9791 On Wed, Feb 10, 2016 at 10:50 AM, Alan Bromborsky wrote: > You might want to consider implementing different coordinate systems by > d

Re: [sympy] GSOC 2016: Implementation of multiple types of coordinate systems

You might want to consider implementing different coordinate systems by defining a metric tensor (g_ij), see link - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_tensor from which all tangent vectors can be derived using the Christoffel symbols - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoffel_symbols On Tue,

Hii, I am Nitin Chaudhary , and I will be applying to GSOC 2016. As I went through your GSOC16’s idea page, I found this https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2016-Ideas#implementation-of-multiple-types-of-coordinate-systems pretty interesting. I have already read the whole document so
