How to solve a pair of nonlinear equations using Python?

Question

What's the (best) way to solve a pair of non linear equations using Python. (Numpy, Scipy or Sympy)

eg:

• x+y^2 = 4
• e^x+ xy = 3

A code snippet which solves the above pair will be great

Answer 1

for numerical solution, you can use fsolve:

http://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.optimize.fsolve.html#scipy.optimize.fsolve

from scipy.optimize import fsolve import math  def equations(p):     x, y = p     return (x+y**2-4, math.exp(x) + x*y - 3)  x, y =  fsolve(equations, (1, 1))  print equations((x, y))
