Python

The Python panel runs Python inside the app.

No install, no account, no network.
NumPy, SciPy, SymPy and Matplotlib come with the app.
Plugins add more, like NetworkX and pandas.

Press Run, or ⌘Enter.

Show anything

Function	Shows
`show(x)`	a plot, a SymPy formula, a table, or text
`show_tex(tex)`	typeset TeX
`show_html(html)`	a small page of your own
`plt.show()`	your Matplotlib plots

A plot

Python

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, 200)
plt.plot(x, np.sin(x), label="sin x")
plt.plot(x, np.cos(x), label="cos x")
plt.legend()
plt.show()

Exact algebra

Python

from sympy import symbols, integrate, exp, oo

x = symbols("x")
show(integrate(exp(-x**2), (x, -oo, oo)))   # √π, typeset

A table

Python

show_html("<table><tr><th>n</th><th>n!</th></tr><tr><td>10</td><td>3628800</td></tr></table>")

Where scripts come from

You, in the panel.
A lesson: a python block has Open in Python.
The Data panel: it hands your values to SymPy.
The assistant: ask in words. It writes the script and fixes errors.
