Hi,

Are Physics constants like h (planks constant) , k (Boltzmann constant) etc.. available in sage? If yes, how can i use them? When i searched I found only math constants Pi, e etc..

-Thanks

Scipy, included in sage, has these constants:

sage: from scipy.constants import h, k
sage: h
6.6260693000000002e-34
sage: k
1.3806505000000001e-23

More details about what is in scipy.constants is available here

Aside: Sage does have functionality for units, so hopefully defining the constants you need is just a matter of multiplying by the appropriate scalar.
