I was very impressed by the description of SymPy here: http://www.euroscipy.org/presentations/slides/index.html
and especially slide 14 "Internals: Object oriented model". I have a couple of general questions about how Object-oriented SymPy is. I'm a mathematician and would like to use or extend SymPy to do abstract differential geometry. 1. Where/how can I see a diagram of the structure of the classes in SymPy? 2. Is SymPy at all modeled after category theory, which organizes mathematics in an essentially object-oriented way? 3. Is there a SymPy approach to, for example, vector spaces? I do *not* mean matrix algebra or computations in components. I mean an actual abstract vector space, where objects would be vectors and one could take linear combinations of vectors. I'm asking this question as an example of a more general question - whether SymPy has been used to do "abstract" computations on mathematical objects such as vector spaces, manifolds, etc. (as mathematicians often do) rather than explicit ones in numbers or polynomials. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
