Printing
========

See the :ref:`tutorial-printing` section in tutorial for introduction into
printing.

This guide documents the printing system in SymPy and how it works
internally.

Printer Class
-------------

.. automodule:: sympy.printing.printer

The main class responsible for printing is ``Printer`` (see also its
`source code <https://github.com/sympy/sympy/blob/master/sympy/printing/printer.py>`_):

.. autoclass:: Printer
   :members: doprint, _print, set_global_settings, order

   .. autoattribute:: Printer.printmethod


PrettyPrinter Class
-------------------

The pretty printing subsystem is implemented in ``sympy.printing.pretty.pretty``
by the ``PrettyPrinter`` class deriving from ``Printer``. It relies on
the modules ``sympy.printing.pretty.stringPict``, and
``sympy.printing.pretty.pretty_symbology`` for rendering nice-looking
formulas.

The module ``stringPict`` provides a base class ``stringPict`` and a derived
class ``prettyForm`` that ease the creation and manipulation of formulas
that span across multiple lines.

The module ``pretty_symbology`` provides primitives to construct 2D shapes
(hline, vline, etc) together with a technique to use unicode automatically
when possible.

.. module:: sympy.printing.pretty

.. module:: sympy.printing.pretty.pretty

.. autoclass:: PrettyPrinter
   :members: _use_unicode, doprint

   .. autoattribute:: PrettyPrinter.printmethod

.. autofunction:: pretty
.. autofunction:: pretty_print

C code printers
---------------

.. module:: sympy.printing.c

This class implements C code printing, i.e. it converts Python expressions
to strings of C code (see also ``C89CodePrinter``).

Usage::

    >>> from sympy.printing import print_ccode
    >>> from sympy.functions import sin, cos, Abs, gamma
    >>> from sympy.abc import x
    >>> print_ccode(sin(x)**2 + cos(x)**2, standard='C89')
    pow(sin(x), 2) + pow(cos(x), 2)
    >>> print_ccode(2*x + cos(x), assign_to="result", standard='C89')
    result = 2*x + cos(x);
    >>> print_ccode(Abs(x**2), standard='C89')
    fabs(pow(x, 2))
    >>> print_ccode(gamma(x**2), standard='C99')
    tgamma(pow(x, 2))

SymPy expressions to strings of C++ code.

Usage::

    >>> from sympy.printing import cxxcode
    >>> from sympy.functions import Min, gamma
    >>> from sympy.abc import x
    >>> print(cxxcode(Min(gamma(x) - 1, x), standard='C++11'))

.. autoclass:: sympy.printing.cxx::CXX11CodePrinter
   :members:

   .. autoattribute:: CXX11CodePrinter.printmethod


.. autofunction:: sympy.printing.codeprinter::cxxcode



RCodePrinter
------------

.. module:: sympy.printing.rcode

This class implements R code printing (i.e. it converts Python expressions
to strings of R code).

Usage::

    >>> from sympy.printing import print_rcode
    >>> from sympy.functions import sin, cos, Abs
    >>> from sympy.abc import x
    >>> print_rcode(sin(x)**2 + cos(x)**2)
    sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2
    >>> print_rcode(2*x + cos(x), assign_to="result")
    result = 2*x + cos(x);
    >>> print_rcode(Abs(x**2))
    abs(x^2)

.. autodata:: sympy.printing.rcode::known_functions

.. autoclass:: sympy.printing.rcode::RCodePrinter
   :members:

   .. autoattribute:: RCodePrinter.printmethod


.. autofunction:: sympy.printing.rcode::rcode

.. autofunction:: sympy.printing.rcode::print_rcode

Fortran Printing
----------------

The ``fcode`` function translates a sympy expression into Fortran code. The main
purpose is to take away the burden of manually translating long mathematical
expressions. Therefore the resulting expression should also require no (or
very little) manual tweaking to make it compilable. The optional arguments
of ``fcode`` can be used to fine-tune the behavior of ``fcode`` in such a way
that manual changes in the result are no longer needed.

.. module:: sympy.printing.fortran
.. autofunction:: fcode
.. autofunction:: print_fcode
.. autoclass:: FCodePrinter
   :members:

   .. autoattribute:: FCodePrinter.printmethod


Two basic examples:

    >>> from sympy import *
    >>> x = symbols("x")
    >>> fcode(sqrt(1-x**2))
    '      sqrt(1 - x**2)'
    >>> fcode((3 + 4*I)/(1 - conjugate(x)))
    '      (cmplx(3,4))/(1 - conjg(x))'

An example where line wrapping is required:

    >>> expr = sqrt(1-x**2).series(x,n=20).removeO()
    >>> print(fcode(expr))
        -715.0d0/65536.0d0*x**18 - 429.0d0/32768.0d0*x**16 - 33.0d0/
        @ 2048.0d0*x**14 - 21.0d0/1024.0d0*x**12 - 7.0d0/256.0d0*x**10 -
        @ 5.0d0/128.0d0*x**8 - 1.0d0/16.0d0*x**6 - 1.0d0/8.0d0*x**4 - 1.0d0
        @ /2.0d0*x**2 + 1

In case of line wrapping, it is handy to include the assignment so that lines
are wrapped properly when the assignment part is added.

    >>> print(fcode(expr, assign_to="var"))
          var = -715.0d0/65536.0d0*x**18 - 429.0d0/32768.0d0*x**16 - 33.0d0/
         @ 2048.0d0*x**14 - 21.0d0/1024.0d0*x**12 - 7.0d0/256.0d0*x**10 -
         @ 5.0d0/128.0d0*x**8 - 1.0d0/16.0d0*x**6 - 1.0d0/8.0d0*x**4 - 1.0d0
         @ /2.0d0*x**2 + 1

For piecewise functions, the ``assign_to`` option is mandatory:

    >>> print(fcode(Piecewise((x,x<1),(x**2,True)), assign_to="var"))
          if (x < 1) then
            var = x
          else
            var = x**2
          end if

Note that by default only top-level piecewise functions are supported due to
the lack of a conditional operator in Fortran 77. Inline conditionals can be
supported using the ``merge`` function introduced in Fortran 95 by setting of
the kwarg ``standard=95``:

    >>> print(fcode(Piecewise((x,x<1),(x**2,True)), standard=95))
          merge(x, x**2, x < 1)

Loops are generated if there are Indexed objects in the expression. This
also requires use of the assign_to option.

    >>> A, B = map(IndexedBase, ['A', 'B'])
    >>> m = Symbol('m', integer=True)
    >>> i = Idx('i', m)
    >>> print(fcode(2*B[i], assign_to=A[i]))
        do i = 1, m
            A(i) = 2*B(i)
        end do

Repeated indices in an expression with Indexed objects are interpreted as
summation. For instance, code for the trace of a matrix can be generated
with

    >>> print(fcode(A[i, i], assign_to=x))
          x = 0
          do i = 1, m
              x = x + A(i, i)
          end do

By default, number symbols such as ``pi`` and ``E`` are detected and defined as
Fortran parameters. The precision of the constants can be tuned with the
precision argument. Parameter definitions are easily avoided using the ``N``
function.

    >>> print(fcode(x - pi**2 - E))
          parameter (E = 2.7182818284590452d0)
          parameter (pi = 3.1415926535897932d0)
          x - pi**2 - E
    >>> print(fcode(x - pi**2 - E, precision=25))
          parameter (E = 2.718281828459045235360287d0)
          parameter (pi = 3.141592653589793238462643d0)
          x - pi**2 - E
    >>> print(fcode(N(x - pi**2, 25)))
          x - 9.869604401089358618834491d0

When some functions are not part of the Fortran standard, it might be desirable
to introduce the names of user-defined functions in the Fortran expression.

    >>> print(fcode(1 - gamma(x)**2, user_functions={'gamma': 'mygamma'}))
          1 - mygamma(x)**2

However, when the user_functions argument is not provided, ``fcode`` will
generate code which assumes that a function of the same name will be provided
by the user.  A comment will be added to inform the user of the issue:

    >>> print(fcode(1 - gamma(x)**2))
    C     Not supported in Fortran:
    C     gamma
          1 - gamma(x)**2

The printer can be configured to omit these comments:

    >>> print(fcode(1 - gamma(x)**2, allow_unknown_functions=True))
          1 - gamma(x)**2

By default the output is human readable code, ready for copy and paste. With the
option ``human=False``, the return value is suitable for post-processing with
source code generators that write routines with multiple instructions. The
return value is a three-tuple containing: (i) a set of number symbols that must
be defined as 'Fortran parameters', (ii) a list functions that cannot be
translated in pure Fortran and (iii) a string of Fortran code. A few examples:

    >>> fcode(1 - gamma(x)**2, human=False)
    (set(), {gamma(x)}, '      1 - gamma(x)**2')
    >>> fcode(1 - sin(x)**2, human=False)
    (set(), set(), '      1 - sin(x)**2')
    >>> fcode(x - pi**2, human=False)
    ({(pi, '3.1415926535897932d0')}, set(), '      x - pi**2')

Gtk
---

.. module:: sympy.printing.gtk

You can print to a gtkmathview widget using the function ``print_gtk``
located in ``sympy.printing.gtk`` (it requires to have installed
gtkmathview and libgtkmathview-bin in some systems).

GtkMathView accepts MathML, so this rendering depends on the MathML
representation of the expression.

    from sympy import *
    print_gtk(x**2 + 2*exp(x**3))

.. autofunction:: print_gtk

PythonCodePrinter

.. automodule:: sympy.printing.pycode
    :members:

PythonPrinter
-------------

.. module:: sympy.printing.python

This class implements Python printing. Usage::

    >>> from sympy import print_python, sin
    >>> from sympy.abc import x

    >>> print_python(5*x**3 + sin(x))
    x = Symbol('x')
    e = 5*x**3 + sin(x)

srepr
-----

.. module:: sympy.printing.repr

This printer generates executable code. This code satisfies the identity
``eval(srepr(expr)) == expr``.

``srepr()`` gives more low level textual output than ``repr()``

Example::

  >>> repr(5*x**3 + sin(x))
  '5*x**3 + sin(x)'

  >>> srepr(5*x**3 + sin(x))
  "Add(Mul(Integer(5), Pow(Symbol('x'), Integer(3))), sin(Symbol('x')))"

``srepr()`` gives the ``repr`` form, which is what ``repr()`` would normally give
but for SymPy we don’t actually use ``srepr()`` for ``__repr__`` because it’s
is so verbose, it is unlikely that anyone would want it called by default.
Another reason is that lists call repr on their elements, like ``print([a, b, c])``
calls ``repr(a)``, ``repr(b)``, ``repr(c)``. So if we used srepr for `` __repr__`` any list with
SymPy objects would include the srepr form, even if we used ``str()`` or ``print()``.

   class. Then a function can be inserted in this dictionary that takes an
   instance of this class as argument and returns the appropriate precedence
   value.
