Comment #9 on issue 1694 by nicolas.pourcelot: solve has many issues with fractions http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1694
I used simplify in other parts of the patch, and I think we should use simplify here too. However, I'm not so enthusiast about "trying to solve for any one of the variables in the expression", because in most cases it's much cheaper to simplify an expression than to solve an equation, and additionally, sympy don't manage correctly equations which are always true. >>> solve((x+1)**2-x**2-2*x-1,x) [] Well, this is an other bug, and I think that much more than a simple patch is required to handle this. (Ideally, this would require that sympy properly manages intervals ; this would also solve the problem of inequations solutions representation by the way). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
