Comment #16 on issue 2225 by sherjilo...@gmail.com: Enhancing Matrix Norm
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2225

"As long as we have the ability to compute eigenvalues symbolically"

Could you elaborate what you mean by this ?

You're right that's not much code, but we do have to consider its usability. We can't put in code that's not usable. Ideally, norm calculations should be sent to mpmath to be solved. But one idea for symbolic norms is to compare matrices. I'll elaborate.

A matrix A defined in terms of symbol x, and another matrix B, which is either numeric or defined in Symbol y,
Consider the question, for what range of x and y, is A > B or A < B.
This is not a trivial project. And there would be many more cases. This is just the simplest example.
That would be a good symbolic matrix addition.

Ask if you want clarification.
