Simplify, how return code instead of TeX?

[Michał Pawłowski]

Hi.

I'd like to generate code of simplified formula. I.E:

When I pass: 1+x+x**2+x**3

I'd like to have: x**3+x**2+x+1

Is it possible to achieve it?

Thanks

wrap your expression in a `print()` statement: `print(1+x+x**2+x**3)`.

Thank you. It works in this example. But if I'd like to do this:

print((x**2+1)*(x-1))

It prints me string without compute it. I'd like to have :

x**3-x**2+x-1

Is it possible?

Thanks Mike

`print(expand((x**2+1)*(x-1)))`
