2D/3D Graphic View Sympy GSoC 2016

[Nuno Lopes]

1. 1. Hello Developers !
   2.  
   3. I am Nuno Lopes and I'm in second year of Computer Science bachelor in Universidade de Evora, Portugal.
   4.  
   5. As a student of Computer Science I have a lot of Math Subjects and sympy could be a very helpfull tool for some of them.
   6.  
   7. I searched for a graphics view on sympy and i only found this:
   8.  
   9. >>> from mpmath import *
   10. >>> from sympy import *
   11. >>> from sympy.plotting import plot
   12. >>> x = symbols('x')
   13. >>> p1 = plot(x*x)

   19.         |      \                                            /

   25.         |            \                                /          
   26.         |             ..                            ..          
   27.         |               \                          /            
   28.         |                ..                      ..              
   29.         |                  ..                  ..                
   30.         |                    ..              ..                  
   31. 0.03305 |                      ..............                    
   32.           -10                    0                          10
   33.  
   34. Maybe I did something wrong or didn't understand how to do it but I only found this text based view and its not really helpfull and it is a bit confuse.
   35.  
   36. One of things that I believe could improve Sympy a lot would be a graphical view of functions 2D/3D and I was thinking about applying and developing this idea for Sympy, maybe using Tkinter as GUI interface.
   37.  
   38. I want to join the Sympy community because I love Math and python was the first language I learned and I loved it so I would like to hear any advice you might have or if this is a viable and interesting ideia.
