Python and Computer Algebra Systems --- is it done?

[Lars von Wedel]

Hi,


There is a GNU project on CA functionality called Ginac. It is basically
a
C++ library with objects such as terms and equations. Looks good and
seems
to be actively developed. Recently, someone posted a Python binding to
this
library.

Have a look at: http://www.ginac.de
