Dear Sympy list (sorry for deluge!), I'm getting some unexpected (to me) behaviour from evalf() - please see the bottom of my email. Is this a) incorrect expectations, b) incorrect usage, c) known bug, or d) something else?
all the best --cjc In [108]: k = Symbol('k') In [109]: w = Symbol('w') In [110]: a = 1+w*exp(-1j*k/4) In [111]: a.evalf(subs={k:7}) Out[111]: 1 + w*exp(-I*k/4) In [112]: a.evalf(subs={w:2}) Out[112]: 1 + w*exp(-I*k/4) In [113]: a.evalf(subs={w:2,k:7}) Out[113]: 0.643507888701016 - 1.96797189374787*I In [114]: a.evalf(subs={k:7,w:2}) Out[114]: 0.643507888701016 - 1.96797189374787*I In [115]: a = 1 + exp(-1j*k/4) In [116]: a.evalf(subs={k:7}) Out[116]: 0.821753944350508 - 0.983985946873937*I -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
