How do I convert a SymPy expression into a fast numerical function?

You can use the 'lambdify' capability within this skill to convert symbolic expressions into high-performance functions compatible with NumPy or SciPy.

Does it support solving differential equations?

Yes, the skill provides guidance on using 'dsolve' for ordinary differential equations and systems of equations.

Can this skill help with physics and mechanics?

Yes, it includes specialized support for classical mechanics (Lagrangian/Hamiltonian), quantum mechanics, and 2D/3D vector analysis.

What is the primary benefit of using SymPy over NumPy?

SymPy provides exact symbolic results (like sqrt(2) or 1/3) rather than numerical approximations (like 1.414 or 0.333), which is crucial for theoretical derivations and avoiding rounding errors.
