SymPy at PyCon India 2015

[Sumith 1896]

Hi all,

As you all know, we had presented SymPy at PyCon India 2015.

A post regarding SymPy at the conference is up here : http://sumith1896.github.io/SymPy-at-PyCon-India-2015/
We wanted to share this with everyone. Do have a look.

Cheers,
Sumith

That's really cool. I like the shirts you guys are wearing.

I will put the T-Shirt design on SymPy wiki for future printing. :)

PyCon India was fun indeed, here are some feedback from the workshop:

* Many of the workshop participants asked how does SymPy compare with
other CAS like Mathematica, Maple and Matlab. We should update the
SymPy vs X docs on the wiki.

* The workshop was over represented by Data Scientists and they were
particularly interested in Stats module. For them our workshop was the
first introduction of SymPy and Symbolic Computation.

* One participant who works on Computer Vision is interested in
SymPy's differential geometry capabilities and our modules on
manifolds and Lie Algebras. I told him about the work of Mary Clark
[1] but I have only a surface level understanding of these areas so I
couldn't talk a lot. I've cc'ed him on this post, it will be really
nice if someone on this group can give an overview about what SymPy
can and cannot do in these areas.

* Younger participants who are still in the university were very
enthusiastic about SymPy because it participates in GSoC, some of them
also send a few patches after PyCon.

* Arrange a lot of flash drives with the latest SymPy source before
the workshop begins.

I believe this page is also pretty accurate
