Disclaimer: just a SymPy user, so I don't speak for the developers/maintainers. One of the coolest things about Wolfram Alpha is its natural language capability. When a user sees a simple text box (e.g., like in Sympy Gamma), the instinct is probably to put in a natural language query, not

2013-05-03 Thread Angus Griffith
Hi everyone, My name is Angus and I'm applying for GSOC 2013 under Sympy. Normally I maintain and develop Mathics http://mathics.org/ (another CAS which uses Sympy extensively). I hope to work on the assumptions module and fix as many assumption related issues as possible. Here's a link to my

Hi, More work on the assumption module is certainly needed and welcomed. You should learn about the differences between the old and the new assumption modules and study the other GSoC proposals about assumptions (they are public on our github wiki). It would also be useful for you if you look at

Something that is on my wish list that is related to parsing is to commit, with every PR a snapshot of the coverage of the code base as generated with the coverage tool that we use. Then, when the new tests are run a new version is generated and a comparison is made to see that no line that was

That's an interesting idea, and I think it definitely has merit. I recently ran into a similar issue where adding an exact value meant that some other simplifying code was skipped. We'd probably have to store this 'snapshot of the coverage' on a server somewhere/ We could use the diff
