sympy

在Python中需要精确符号数学时使用——代数、微积分、方程求解、符号线性代数或通过lambdify/LaTeX生成代码。当浮点数近似足够时,优先使用NumPy或SciPy。

sympy 是什么?

SymPy是一个用Python编写的符号数学库,允许进行精确的符号计算而不是数值近似。该技能提供了全面的指导,涵盖符号代数、微积分、线性代数、方程求解、物理计算和代码生成等功能。它支持多个平台,包括Python环境,并通过lambdify函数将符号表达式转换为高效的NumPy函数,从而集成到科学工作流中。该技能包括最佳实践(如始终先定义符号、使用假设简化表达式、精确算术避免浮点误差)、常见用例模式和故障排除提示。它还引用模块化参考文件,如核心能力、线性代数、物理力学、高级主题和代码生成,以深入特定领域。SymPy适用于需要精确数学结果的场景,例如求解方程、微积分运算、矩阵操作和生成LaTeX输出。

SymPy - Python中的符号数学

概述

SymPy是一个用于符号数学的Python库,能够使用数学符号而不是数值近似进行精确计算。本技能提供了使用SymPy进行符号代数、微积分、线性代数、方程求解、物理计算和代码生成的全面指导。

安装

已在 SymPy 1.14.0(稳定版;2025年4月)上测试。需要 Python 3.9+。

# 使用uv安装SymPy
uv pip install "sympy>=1.14"

# 可选:用于lambdify和绘图示例
uv pip install numpy scipy matplotlib

检查版本:

import sympy
print(sympy.__version__)

何时使用此技能

在以下情况下使用此技能:

  • 符号求解方程(代数、微分、方程组)
  • 执行微积分运算(导数、积分、极限、级数)
  • 操作和简化代数表达式
  • 符号处理矩阵和线性代数
  • 进行物理计算(力学、量子力学、向量分析)
  • 数论计算(质数、因式分解、模运算)
  • 几何计算(2D/3D几何、解析几何)
  • 将数学表达式转换为可执行代码(Python、C、Fortran)
  • 生成LaTeX或其他格式化的数学输出
  • 需要精确的数学结果(例如 sqrt(2) 而不是 1.414...)

核心能力

七个能力记录在 references/core_capabilities.md中:

  1. 符号计算基础 — 符号、表达式、简化、替换。
  2. 微积分 — 微分、积分、极限、级数。
  3. 方程求解 — solve、solveset、线性和非线性系统、常微分方程。
  4. 矩阵和线性代数 — 参见 references/matrices-linear-algebra.md。
  5. 物理和力学 — 参见 references/physics-mechanics.md。
  6. 高等数学 — 参见 references/advanced-topics.md。
  7. 代码生成和输出 — 参见 references/code-generation-printing.md。

前三者的更深入讨论在 references/core-capabilities.md中。

使用SymPy:最佳实践

1. 始终先定义符号

from sympy import symbols
x, y, z = symbols('x y z')
# 现在x, y, z可以在表达式中使用

2. 使用假设以更好地简化

x = symbols('x', positive=True, real=True)
sqrt(x**2)  # 由于positive假设,返回x(而不是Abs(x))

常见假设:real、positive、negative、integer、rational、complex、even、odd

3. 使用精确算术

from sympy import Rational, S
# 正确(精确):
expr = Rational(1, 2) * x
expr = S(1)/2 * x

# 错误(浮点数):
expr = 0.5 * x  # 创建近似值

4. 需要时进行数值评估

from sympy import pi, sqrt
result = sqrt(8) + pi
result.evalf()    # 5.96371554103586
result.evalf(50)  # 50位精度

5. 转换为NumPy以提高性能

# 多次评估时速度慢:
for x_val in range(1000):
    result = expr.subs(x, x_val).evalf()

# 速度快:
f = lambdify(x, expr, 'numpy')
results = f(np.arange(1000))

6. 使用适当的求解器

  • solveset:代数方程(主要)
  • linsolve:线性系统
  • nonlinsolve:非线性系统
  • dsolve:微分方程
  • solve:通用目的(旧版但灵活)

参考文件结构

此技能对不同能力使用模块化参考文件:

  1. core-capabilities.md:符号、代数、微积分、简化、方程求解

    • 当需要:基本符号计算、微积分或求解方程时加载
  2. matrices-linear-algebra.md:矩阵运算、特征值、线性系统

    • 当需要:处理矩阵或线性代数问题时加载
  3. physics-mechanics.md:经典力学、量子力学、向量、单位

    • 当需要:物理计算或力学问题时加载
  4. advanced-topics.md:几何、数论、组合数学、逻辑、统计

    • 当需要:超出基本代数和微积分的高级数学主题时加载
  5. code-generation-printing.md:Lambdify、codegen、LaTeX输出、打印

    • 当需要:将表达式转换为代码或生成格式化输出时加载

常见用例模式

模式1:求解并验证

from sympy import symbols, solve, simplify
x = symbols('x')

# 求解方程
eqution = x**2 - 5*x + 6
solutions = solve(equation, x)  # [2, 3]

# 验证解
for sol in solutions:
    result = simplify(equation.subs(x, sol))
    assert result == 0

模式2:符号到数值的管道

# 1. 定义符号问题
x, y = symbols('x y')
expr = sin(x) + cos(y)

# 2. 符号操作
simplified = simplify(expr)
derivative = diff(simplified, x)

# 3. 转换为数值函数
f = lambdify((x, y), derivative, 'numpy')

# 4. 数值评估
results = f(x_data, y_data)

模式3:记录数学结果

# 符号计算结果
integral_expr = Integral(x**2, (x, 0, 1))
result = integral_expr.doit()

# 生成文档
print(f"LaTeX: {latex(integral_expr)} = {latex(result)}")
print(f"美观打印: {pretty(integral_expr)} = {pretty(result)}")
print(f"数值: {result.evalf()}")

  2. 意外的数值结果

    • 问题:使用浮点数如0.5而不是Rational(1, 2)
    • 解决方案:使用Rational()或S()进行精确算术
  3. 循环中性能缓慢

    • 问题:重复使用subs()和evalf()
    • 解决方案:使用lambdify()创建快速数值函数
  4. "Can't solve this equation"

    • 尝试不同的求解器:solve、solveset、nsolve(数值)
    • 检查方程是否可代数求解
    • 如果没有闭式解,使用数值方法
  5. 简化没有按预期工作

    • 尝试不同的简化函数:simplify、factor、expand、trigsimp
    • 为符号添加假设(例如positive=True)
    • 使用simplify(expr, force=True)进行激进简化

Use whenever the user has bulk RNA-seq reads or quant output and wants a complete, reproducible differential-expression workflow — e.g.

cellxgene-census

Query the CZ CELLxGENE Census programmatically for versioned public single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data. Use when you need population-scale cell metadata, gene expression slices, Census summary counts, source H5AD URIs/downloads, embeddings, spatial Census data, or reference atlas comparisons across organisms, tissues, diseases, assays, and cell types. For analyzing your own local single-cell data use scanpy, anndata, or scvi-tools.

Search OpenAlex, PubMed, and Google Scholar for papers, extract accurate metadata, validate citations, and generate properly formatted BibTeX entries. This skill should be used when you need to find papers, verify citation information, convert DOIs to BibTeX, or ensure reference accuracy in scientific writing.

clinical-decision-support

Prepare and validate research-only clinical decision-support evaluation, evidence-profile, cohort, survival, biomarker/model, privacy, and governance artifacts. Use for aggregate or synthetic research documentation and traceability—not patient care or live clinical operation.

clinical-reports

Create safety-bounded draft structures and run local deterministic checks for clinical case, diagnostic, trial, safety, and aggregate research reports. Use only with synthetic, de-identified, or aggregate inputs and verified source-fact manifests; every output requires qualified review.
