Benjamin: Towards a new SymPy

In a series of posts on his blog, Oscar Benjamin looks at SymPy, which is a Python-based symbolic-mathematics library. In the first article, he outlines the "big changes for SymPy with particular focus on speed". The second covers polynomial handling; subsequent articles will examine other pieces of the puzzle.
I will be writing this in a series of blog posts. This first post will outline the structure of the foundations of a computer algebra system (CAS) like SymPy, describe some problems SymPy currently has and what can be done to address them. Then subsequent posts will focus in more detail on particular components and the work that has been done and what should be done in the future.
