Hi Christofer,
Look at https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/NumericalMathematics.html
and within that page search for Symbolic Mathematics. It shows two
packages: Ryacas and rSymPy.
I have no experience with them but they may be a good place to start.

HTH,
Eric

FWIW I have found all such tools to require babysitting... and for interactive use I prefer wxMaxima and some manual translation to R.

There's also `D` and related functions in base R.

Hi,

There is a new package published on CRAN called symengine (I am the
maintainer). That might be suitable for your need.

Best,
Jialin

Hi Jialin,
I was not aware of symengine. I just did a search and found that you were
recognized by the 'John Chambers Statistical Software Award' committee for
2020 for your work on the symengine package. Congratulations!
