For a numerical "physicist" (yes, the quotation marks are indispensable), Sympy was somewhat of a godsend to me. Great for prototyping even more advanced models before optimising them later on in C++.
I haven't used Mathematica much, but I have a feeling that it's still more symbolically powerful (or requires less wrangling) than SymPy? I'd appreciate if somebody with more experience in Mathematica could lay it out flat for me if that's the case.
