sagemath_fricas: Symbolic computation with the general purpose computer algebra system FriCAS¶

This pip-installable distribution passagemath-fricas provides an interface to FriCAS, the general purpose computer algebra system.

What is included¶

Python interface to FriCAS
Raw access to the FriCAS executable from Python using sage.features.fricas
Binary wheels on PyPI contain prebuilt copies of FriCAS.

Examples¶

Starting FriCAS from the command line:

$ pipx run --pip-args="--prefer-binary" --spec "passagemath-fricas[test]" sage -sh -c fricas

Finding the installation location of a FriCAS in Python:

$ pipx run --pip-args="--prefer-binary" --spec "passagemath-fricas[test]" ipython

In [1]: from sage.features.fricas import FriCAS

In [2]: FriCAS().absolute_filename()
Out[2]: '.../bin/fricas'

Using the pexpect interface to FriCAS:

$ pipx run --pip-args="--prefer-binary" --spec "passagemath-fricas[test]" python

>>> from sage.interfaces.fricas import fricas
>>> fricas('1+1')
2
