问题
When I run this program, I get no solution at the end, but there should be a solution ( I believe). Any idea what I am doing wrong? If you take away the Q from e2 equation it seems to work correctly.
#!/usr/bin/python
from sympy import *
a,b,w,r = symbols('a b w r',real=True,positive=True)
L,K,Q = symbols('L K Q',real=True,positive=True)
e1=K
e2=(K*Q/2)**(a)
print solve(e1-e2,K)
It works if we do the following:
- Set Q=1 or,
- Change e2 to e2=(K*a)(Q/2)**(a)
I would still like it to work in the original way though, as my equations are more complicated than this.
回答1:
This is just a deficiency of solve. solve is based mostly on heuristics, so sometimes it isn't able to figure out how to solve an equation when it's given in a particular form. The workaround here is to just call expand_power_base on the expression, since SymPy is able to solve K - K**a*(Q/2)**a:
In [8]: print(solve(expand_power_base(e1-e2),K))
[(2/Q)**(a/(a - 1))]
It's also worth pointing out that the result of [] from solve does not in any way mean that there are no solutions, only that solve was unable to find any. See the first note at http://docs.sympy.org/latest/tutorial/solvers.html.
