TIL about latex2sympy:

https://github.com/augustt198/latex2sympy

(typeset equations => computer algebra system)
#latex #sympy #CAS

Some way to add all of these expressions/formulas/equations to an
OrderedDict (maybe with schema.org/name for labels) e.g. in a notebook with
westurner/nbmeta would be cool.
IDK how to make it more simple than:

  # emit(key, value)
  # emit(key, Meta(obj, **attrs))
  emit(key, Formula(expr, **attrs))

Where emit() does something like _STORE.__setitem__(key, value) and then
IPython.display (or just 'return value')

https://github.com/westurner/nbmeta/blob/develop/nb/nbmeta-00-01__exploration.py


... locals(), globals(), _STORE = OrderedDict()

https://github.com/Kaggle/docker-python/blob/master/Dockerfile includes
multiple kitchen sinks.
