What do you mean by this? Can you give a very precise example? Do you mean that you want to return a True/False answer for the inequality, because this already works: In [1]: from sympy.plotting.experimental_lambdify import experimental_lambdify In [3]: f = experimental_lambdify([x,y], x<y) In [4]: f(1,1) Out[4]: False In [5]: f(1,2) Out[5]: True A more complicated one: In [15]: f = experimental_lambdify([x,y], x<integrate(1/sin(z), (z,0.1,y))) In [16]: f(1,1.1) Out[16]: True And a complication: In [17]: f(1,2) Out[17]: log(cos(2) + 1) log(-1 + cos(2)) - ─────────────── + 2.99489845376757 - 0.5⋅ⅈ⋅π + ──────────────── > 1 2 2 > During the initial stages, when I am not using my extended interval > arithmetic library, I will be using lambdify for my evaluations. But if it works with lambdify, why do you need interval arithmetics? I understand that my question is stupid by I really do not know the answer. > When I start using my extended interval arithmetic library I will modify > experimental_lambdify to evaluate functions differently( call the functions > in Interval Arithmetic class). That would be great. > The recursion goes on till we reach to a block size of 1 pixel. Neither matplotlib nor svgfig nor any other high-level plotting backend works well with points. Moreover, plotting points in svg will be hard (you need rectangles, and not points if you wish to have something useful for zooming). The one and only option that I see is to use 2D numpy arrays and then matplotlib.showimage (and you will have to reimplement this for svgfig). The plotting module that I have written already depends on numpy so this will not limit the usability any further. If someone wants to run this without numpy he can always create a simple class emulating np arrays in lists. > Subpixel Computation probes into regions inside the pixel and decides whether > the pixel has to be included. Same comment as above. > Interval Arithmetic More detailed examples of the class structure will be useful. Why do you prefer to write the code twice (for mpmath and numpy) instead of writing it directly in sympy. The reason of performance (which is a very good reason) comes to mind, but on the other hand whatever you write will be very hard to maintain. I think it would be better to write it in sympy and then fix the places where evalf is slow. An argument against that is that mpi already does part of the work. But you still have much to add. And you also want to repeat all this for numpy. You have thought about this more than I have, so maybe your plan is better. It is just still unclear to me what exactly will you implement. Maybe it will be more productive to focus on mpi interval arithmetics and leave numpy out. And it will be great if the mpi stuff is sent upstream. Have you already contacted them? > svgfig Backend You speak about using numpy because GAE and other reasons, but actually you do not have a choice. The plotting module depends (although very loosely) on numpy. Evaluations are done in lambdify which may or may not use numpy, but at the end the results are stored in numpy arrays. On the other hand, creating a small class emulating numpy arrays in list will be useful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
