SymPy is a Python library for symbolic mathematics.

At present, there are two means to call Python code from Julia. As such, two packages have been developed to call into SymPy:

• SymPy.jl is a long-standing Julia package using PyCall.jl to provide a "Julian" interface to SymPy.

• SymPyPythonCall.jl is a Julia package using PythonCall.jl to provide a "Julian" interface to SymPy providing a nearly identical experience as SymPy.jl.

The SymPyCore package aims to unify the underlying code, leaving only a small amount of glue code in the primary packages. As of version 0.2 of SymPyPythonCall.jl and version 2.0 of SymPy the SymPyCore package is used.

To use SymPyCore you should install one of the two primary packages, and load that into a session. Installation of either SymPyPythonCall or SymPy should install the core package, the glue package, and arrange for the underlying sympy library of Python to be installed.
