numpy people use
import numpy as np
and often
import scipy as sp
and
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
How about
import sympy as S
(for my part I still use import numpy as N -- historical relict from
Numeric and numarray)
Both lower case "s" and unabbreviated "sympy" seem bad choices for me ...
My two cents,
Sebastian Haase
