I am writing a very simple macro for my thesis.
I want to define a symbolic function with 4 input parameters: two of them correspond to numerical values but the other two are symbolic variables that will be used for integrating the function.
Here is the code of the function:
def VelocityDistribution_notNorm(v_DM,costheta,v_0,v_e):
return exp(-(v_DM**2 + v_e**2 + 2*v_DM*v_e*costheta)/(v_0**2));
v_0 and v_e correspond to numerical values and V_DM and costheta are the two symbolic variables. In a different function I called the previous function in the following way:
v_0 = 220 #km/s
v_e = 232 #km/s
v_DM = Symbol("v_DM")
cosTheta = Symbol("cosTheta")
integrand_0 = v_DM * VelocityDistribution_notNorm(v_DM,v_e,v_0,cosTheta)
Also I imported the following modules:
from math import *
from sympy import *
from sympy.functions.elementary.exponential import *
from scipy import *
from scipy.constants import *
but I get this error when I try to run the macro:
File "prova.py", line 38, in VelocityDistribution_notNorm
return exp(-(v_DM**2 + v_e**2 + 2*v_DM*v_e*costheta)/(v_0**2));
AttributeError: 'Add' object has no attribute 'exp'
What I am doing wrong?
the function exp
is in the math
package. Import it before use:
from math import exp
I think you're mixing symbolic and explicit functions, here. You can solve this by not importing anything from math. This is why it is generally advised against doing from xyz import *
from sympy import *
import scipy
def VelocityDistribution_notNorm(v_DM,costheta,v_0,v_e):
return exp(-(v_DM**2 + v_e**2 + 2*v_DM*v_e*costheta)/(v_0**2));
v_0 = 220 #km/s
v_e = 232 #km/s
v_DM = Symbol("v_DM")
cosTheta = Symbol("cosTheta")
integrand_0 = VelocityDistribution_notNorm(v_DM,v_e,v_0,cosTheta)
