Symbolic Manipulation in Python

This video tutorial covers symbolic manipulation in Python using SymPy. It begins with setting up the environment and importing necessary packages. The tutorial then demonstrates basic operations, substitutions, and how to simplify, expand, and factor expressions. It also covers calculating derivatives and integrals, solving equations, and performing matrix operations. The tutorial provides practical examples and step-by-step instructions to help learners understand and apply symbolic math in Python.
