@valglad Thanks. rationalize function worked (in fact I was using Fractions.from_float() before, this work better). But I could not apply your lambda function to a 2-d matrix, just 1-d.

I have created mrationalize = lambda x: [nsimplify(e) for e in [r for r in x]] that I do not like much the fell.

V Gladkova

@valglad

Doing map(rationalize, list_of_lists) inside the Matrix call (like I did above when creating PI) would probably be easiest

I have a problem with calculating eigenvectors for a simple 3x3 matrix in sympy. Trying to execute

q = symbols("q", positive=True)
m = Matrix([[-2, exp(-q), 1], [exp(q), -2, 1], [1, 1, -2]])
#m.eigenvects(simplify=True)
m.eigenvals()

results in very complicated expressions for the eigenvalues, trying to get the eigenvectors fails with a NotImplementedError. I expect the latter to be due to the former. However, when trying to do the same thing in Mathematica, I get much simpler expressions for everything. Is there some option / flag that I can set to have sympy compute these eigenvalues and eigenvectors? Is there currently some form of limitation within sympy that prevents me from doing this?

what are all the prerequisite i need to have before contributing to opensource (sympy) ? I have a pretty good hold of python now. Github is very confusing for me.

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

It helps to understand git/github, but generally the best way to learn them is to use them

@adoa does Mathematica give a simpler expression for the eigenvalues?

Oh apparently they can be simplified if you call simplify

Het Patel

@hetp111

@asmeurer Ty, do i need to learn git or github? is learning github enough? i have never done opensource before, should i start with sympy?

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

You need to learn the basics of git, to download the code and push it up to GitHub

@adoa it seems there is a simplify flag, but it doesn't work

Het Patel

@hetp111

@asmeurer can't i do it manually through github website?

Kalevi Suominen

@jksuom

I suspect that there is not enough support for simplifying hyperbolic functions.

This may help you

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

@adoa I opened sympy/sympy#15118 for your issue

Het Patel

@hetp111

@Malkhan52 Thank ypu,

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

@hetp111 we also have our guide https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/Development-workflow

@asmeurer I am using windows, will i have any problems? or do i need linux?

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

You can use windows.

You should use whichever you feel more comfortable with

Het Patel

@hetp111

I am aiming for GSoC 2019, what is the procedure?

(sorry for these silly questions... I am trying my best ,i just need some guidance )

Malkhan Singh

@Malkhan52

I'm getting this error '''>>> expr = cos(x)

expr.subs(x-1,y)
cos(x)
expr = cos(x+1)
expr.subs(x-1,y)
cos(y + 2)
'''

where will it be in code?

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

Somewhere in the core

I guess it's because Add does the smart substitution but Symbol does not

The cosine is irrelevant. It's the same with x.subs(x - 1, y) vs. (x + 1).subs(x - 1, y)

Malkhan Singh

@Malkhan52

yeah that's why i'm searching subs()

Malkhan Singh

@Malkhan52

got that in basic.py

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

Subs is implemented on the different classes in _eval_subs

So Symbol._eval_subs should do the same thing as Add._eval_subs.

Adoa Coturnix

@adoa

@asmeurer: I am somewhat confused regarding the simplification. Apparently there is a difference between simplify(a_list) and [simplify(element) for element in a_list]. With the latter, I get the same expressions as in Mathematica, the former does not simplify at all o_O. In any case: thanks for opening the issue :-)

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

I don't know why simplify returns a list unchanged. In general, though, you shouldn't rely on SymPy functions automatically vectorizing over lists

Ashwin Shenoy

@Ashwin-Shenoy-NITK

In the ellipse class, do hradius & vradius represent the semi-major axis length & semi-minor axis length respectively ?

It's a bit unclear in the docstring. I take it they are being represented as radius vectors from the origin along the major & minor axis ?

@akshitt

Hi I am Akshit, fresher in CS at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay. Could someone guide me to a basic level bug to start with?

I have some basic level knowledge in Python, FLINT, NumPy

Het Patel

@hetp111

@akshit1511 Hi, i am also new, i'll tell you what i'll be doing to get started, first of all i'll learn to use git and github and then https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki has a lot of information on how to start

@akshit1511 Tell me if i am missing something.

Akshit Srivastava

@akshitt

@hetp111 try reading this instead http://try.github.io/

Het Patel

@hetp111

@akshit1511 I'll try. Thanks!

Printing latex(pi) yields to \\pi whereas the correct representation in LaTex should be just \pi , is the extra '\' a bug or requirement?

Sidhant Nagpal

@sidhantnagpal

"\\pi" is correct. \\ is used to escape \.

Yatna Verma

@yatna

okay, thanks

Kalevi Suominen

@jksuom

'\\pi' is the representation of the (internal) Python string created by latex(pi). You can use print(latex(pi)) to see how the output will appear in the LaTeX source.

what level of python is required in order to contribute for sympy?

@bjodah

I'm trying to hunt down where in my code I'm using a now deprecated sympy function. I'm using pytest & python 3.7 and I'm looking at the python docs. This should work, but I can't seem to make it trigger:

$ PYTHONWARNINGS='ignore,error:::sympy' PYTHON=python3.7 PYTHONPATH=~/vc/sympy ./scripts/run_tests.sh chempy/util/pyutil.py
==== 6 passed, 1 skipped in 0.53 seconds ====
/home/bjorn/vc/sympy/sympy/matrices/matrices.py:2491: SymPyDeprecationWarning: 

Dot product of non row/column vectors has been deprecated since SymPy
1.2. Use * to take matrix products instead. See
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues/13815 for more info.

  useinstead="* to take matrix products").warn()

if I change the PYTHONWARNINGS environment variable to simply error::DeprecationWarning it triggers way before actually running the tests:

Traceback (most recent call last):
...
  File "/opt/py37/lib/python3.7/site-packages/_pytest/assertion/rewrite.py", line 6, in <module>
    import imp

    DeprecationWarning, stacklevel=2)
DeprecationWarning: the imp module is deprecated in favour of importlib; see the module's documentation for alternative uses

does anyone know the proper syntax to specifically turn SymPy warnings into errors?

(I also tried PYTHONWARNINGS='ignore,error::DeprecationWarning:sympy' and a few other combinations to no avail)

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

I think use SymPyDeprecationWarning instead of DeprecationWarning
