Cannot import sympy at Python 3

[Jefferson]

I have recently installed sympy. I have the newest version of python. The symoy site said that it is compatible with the version I have but everytime I try to import the sympy module using this command:

          from sympy import *

I always get the following error:

         Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
    from sympy import *
  File "C:\Program Files\Python 3\lib\site-packages\sympy\__init__.py", line 20, in <module>
    from sympy.core import *
  File "C:\Program Files\Python 3\lib\site-packages\sympy\core\__init__.py", line 4, in <module>
    from sympify import sympify
ImportError: No module named sympify
>>>

I am trying to teach myself programming. I'm just a newbie so I don't know anything about disutils (I found out in my research that the installation *might* be the problem. I am not really sure). Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi!

Unfortunately, SymPy is not yet compatible with Python 3 (but will be
soon), you need to use Python 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7 (I recommend 2.7). If
you have any further questions or problems, please don't hesitate to
ask.

Only sympy 0.7.2 is compatible with python 3, so first of all confirm
that this is the version that you are using.

Also, confirm that you are using the translated version (we develop in
python 2 and then use a script to translate it to python 3 - so we
have two different release archives).

If you were able to install the python 2 version of SymPy 0.7.2 into
python 3, that's a bug. The installer should have prevented that from
happening. I am pretty sure setup.py does, but I don't know how to
control the exe installer, nor can I even check it.
