I really want to learn how to use python for stuff like calculus, math in general. I've heard that you can use SymPy, but i have no clue as to how to download it. There aren't any plugins on pycharm. Can anyone help out? And do ya'll know a better IDE i could use to run code for maths?

To install SymPy using PyPI, run the following command

$ pip install sympy

To install SymPy using Anaconda, run the following command

$ conda install -c anaconda sympy

To install SymPy from the GitHub source, first clone SymPy using git

$ git clone https://github.com/sympy/sympy.git

Then, in the sympy repository that you cloned, simply run

$ python setup.py install

Great you want to start coding! Maybe take a look at this to see how to install packages in python using pip:

Guide Should look like this

$ pip install SymPy

In Python you import an (previously installed) package with import package_name. Further information can be found here

Last but not least, the SymPy documentation
