Python(x, cgopts)
x
-
expression, list, rtable, procedure, or module
cgopts
(optional) one or more CodeGeneration options
The Python(x, cgopts) calling sequence translates Maple code to Python code.
- If the parameter x is an algebraic expression, then a Python statement assigning the expression to a variable is generated.
- If x is a list, Maple Array, or rtable of algebraic expressions, then a sequence of Python statements assigning the elements to a Python array is produced. Only the initialized elements of the rtable or Maple Array are translated.
- If x is a list of equations nm=expr, where nm is a name and expr is an algebraic expression, then this is understood as a sequence of assignment statements. In this case, the equivalent sequence of Python assignment statements is generated.
- If x is a procedure, then a Python class is generated containing a function equivalent to the procedure, along with any necessary import statements.
- If x is a module, then a Python class is generated, as described on the PythonDetails help page.
The parameter cgopts may include one or more CodeGeneration options, as described in CodeGenerationOptions.

For a description of the options used in the following examples, see CodeGenerationOptions.
with⁡CodeGeneration:
Translate a simple expression and assign it to the name w in the target code.
Python⁡x+y⁢z−2⁢x⁢z,resultname=w
w = -2 * x * z + y * z + x
Translate a list and assign it to an array with the name w in the target code.
Python⁡x,2⁢y,5,z,resultname=w
w = [[x,2 * y],[5,z]]
Translate a computation sequence. Optimize the input first.
cs≔s=1.0+x,t=ln⁡s⁢exp⁡−x,r=exp⁡−x+x⁢t:
Python⁡cs,optimize
s = 0.10e1 + x t1 = math.log(s) t2 = math.exp(-x) t = t2 * t1 r = x * t + t2
Declare that x is a float and y is an integer. Return the result in a string.
s≔Python⁡x+y+1,declare=x::float,y::integer,output=string
s≔cg = x + y + 1
Translate a procedure. Assume that all untyped variables have type integer.
f := proc(x, y, z) return x*y-y*z+x*z; end proc:
Python⁡f,defaulttype=integer
def f (x, y, z): return(y * x - y * z + x * z)
Translate a procedure containing an implicit return. A new variable is created to hold the return value.
f := proc(n) local x, i; x := 0.0; for i to n do x := x + i; end do; end proc:
Python⁡f
def f (n): x = 0.0e0 for i in range(1, n + 1): x = x + i cgret = x return(cgret)
Translate a linear combination of hyperbolic trigonometric functions.
Python⁡2⁢cosh⁡x−7⁢tanh⁡x
cg0 = 2 * math.cosh(x) - 7 * math.tanh(x)
Translate a procedure with no return value containing a printf statement.
f := proc(a::integer, p::integer) printf("The integer remainder of %d divided by %d is: %d\n", a, p, irem(a, p)); end proc:
def f (a, p): printf("The integer remainder of %d divided by %d is: %d\n", a, p, a % p)
Translate a procedure involving linear algebra.
detHilbert := proc(n :: posint) uses LinearAlgebra; return Determinant( HilbertMatrix( n ) ); end proc:
Python⁡detHilbert
import numpy.linalg import scipy.linalg def detHilbert (n): return(numpy.linalg.det(scipy.linalg.hilbert(n)))
Notice that by default CodeGeneration translates LinearAlgebra[Determinant] to the Python function numpy.linalg.det. However as the Python scipy.linalg library is already being used in the above example and also contains a implementation of the determinant, it may be simpler to use that translation. This may be achieved using the libraryorder option to indicate that scipy.linalg is preferred over numpy.linalg.
Python⁡detHilbert,libraryorder=scipy.linalg,numpy.linalg
import scipy.linalg def detHilbert (n): return(scipy.linalg.det(scipy.linalg.hilbert(n)))
The CodeGeneration[Python] command was introduced in Maple 18.
