For the love of God How do you install Sympy. I have installed in PC Python 3.3.3 and download Sympy latest version 0.7.3 I looked for youtube  videos, try to follow instructions but no luck can anybody help thanks

Hi Emilio,

From your G+ account it seems that you are using Windows? If so, then
I think you need
to install Python 2 from python.org (I didn't find any Python 3.3 installers):

http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.6/

i.e.: http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.6/python-2.7.6.msi

and then install this SymPy installer:

https://github.com/sympy/sympy/releases/download/sympy-0.7.3/sympy-0.7.3.win32.exe

(I got this link from the Downloads link at http://sympy.org/en/index.html).

Let us know if this works.

Ondrej

What I mean to write is that I didn't find any Python 3.3 installers of SymPy.

I would recommend using Anaconda to get SymPy. You will also get the
IPython notebook, Matplotlib, NumPy, and a bunch of other useful
packages. Trying to install things in Windows is otherwise a huge
pain, especially since we don't make Windows installers any more.

If you want to use Python 3, you can download Anaconda and create a
Python 3 environment using conda, or download Miniconda3
(http://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/index.html) and then run "conda
install anaconda" in the command prompt.

Another option, if you really *just* want SymPy is to use the
Christoph Gohlke installer
(http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#sympy). But if you want
anything beyond SymPy I highly recommend using Anaconda.

Yeah, that's a better option for Windows. Here is the link to Anaconda:

https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/

just click on the "Download Anaconda" button.

Use the IPython notebook or IPython qtconsole. Type:

from sympy import init_session
init_session()

That will give you a SymPy session.

You can also get SymPy in the console by typing isympy, but the
IPython one is generally nicer because of the LaTeX pretty printing.

to start a session with  other (Numpy, Matplotlib, etc) do I do the same thanks

Yes, just start the IPython notebook, and use NumPy, Matplotlib from it.
