I've been trying this now for hours. I think I don't understand a basic concept, and that's why I couldn't answer this question to myself so far. I'm trying to implement a simple mathematical function, like this: f(x) = x**2 + 1 After that, I want to derive that function. I've defined the symbol and function with: x = sympy.Symbol('x') f = sympy.Function('f')(x) Now I'm struggling with defining the equation to this function f(x). Something like f.exp("x**2 + 1") is not working. How could I get a printout to the console of this function after it's finally defined? Continue reading...
