Algebra

[Sam]

Hello,

I am looking for a module that will evaluate alegbraic equations with
multiple variables like this equation for a straight line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

and solve problems like simultaneous equations. They're really the only
two things I need the module to do, but anything else would be great
too.

Thanks,
Sam.

You seem to be asking for a symbolic algebra package, but I suspect
you don't actually need one. What does this program of yours have to
do?

There used to be a module called something sounding like mathematica,
but with a 'py' in there somewhere... dunno if that was a Mathematica
bridge (if not, one doubtless exists somewhere) or a little symbolic
algebra package written in Python (ditto, probably).
