Hi,

Looking at the SymPy vs. Sage comparison page on the wiki,

https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/SymPy-vs.-Sage

it's outdated at points. Most notably, it references SymPy 0.7.2 as
upcoming. I also think we should have a ** for Graph Theory and while
there is no support, one can use NetworkX.

Thoughts,

Tim.

Sure. Feel free to update it (it's on the Wiki). Those SymPy vs. pages
come from when we did Google Code-In back in 2011, and they haven't
really been updated since, except by occasional edits.

Is there another way to update the Wiki pages other than the web editor?
It seems a bit tedious to update each page in the SymPy vs. pages with
the same SymPy details by hand.

Anyway, I've updated the SymPy vs. Sage comparison page (I didn't do the
others, though). It now lists the latest version of each and I updated
the Functionality table to reflect that we've added integral transforms
and Diophantine equations support. I didn't touch the Sage functionality
portion of the table, though. For instance, I'm guessing they now have
Diophantine equation support since they can use SymPy's.

Cheers,

Tim.

The wiki is just a git repo. You can clone it locally and push to it.

Ah,

It's not easy to find the details about it. It doesn't help that there's
a wiki repo for SymPy (that just points to the GitHub wiki). The general
syntax is,

git clone https://github.com/user/project.wiki.git

so for SymPy, it should be,

git clone https://github.com/sympy/sympy.wiki.git

Thanks,

Tim.

Yes, I highly recommend using the git access if you can. And in case
it isn't clear, you have to have push access to the main SymPy repo in
order to be able to push to the wiki (although anyone can clone it).
