Thank you, it worked well. I can't find how in sympy i can obtain the entire expression parsing tree. I want to be able to navigate from my app, selecting part of the expression (having the expression tree and navigation functions, this would be very easy), and applying to this expression some operation.
Is there some common approach to this problem? thanks On Jun 15, 11:15 pm, "Aaron S.
