Comment #6 on issue 2842 by xoed...@gmail.com: Fix evalf documentation
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2842
It looks to me like the documentation already specifies this, and has been
for quite a while:
From http://docs.sympy.org/dev/modules/evalf.html
If the expression contains symbols or for some other reason cannot be
evaluated numerically, calling .evalf() or N() returns the original
expression, or in some cases a partially evaluated expression. For example,
when the expression is a polynomial in expanded form, the coefficients are
evaluated:
x = Symbol('x')
(pi*x**2 + x/3).evalf()
3.14159265358979*x**2 + 0.333333333333333*x
Is the issue that the special case of the power 1/(1+n) should be mentioned?
