I care about pure python shells. However, I could live with it if there was a trivial way to setup printing as in isympy (calling init_printing() probably already does this). > What matters is that: > * we can't change it > * people new to sympy who know Python expect it > * there is a lot of code outside sympy that takes this behaviour for > granted and works with/around it. On the other hand, eval(repr(x)) == x does not hold in general, see for example lambda, functions, numpy arrays etc. Vinzent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
