Vector calculus
Hello,
Is there a vector calculus package/functionality in Sage that are similar to other 2M packages?
Thanks.

There is a fair amount of functionality, although I don't know if you'll find what specifically what you want. Here are some suggestions:
Evaluate vector?
in a notebook cell or at a sage:
prompt to see the introductory documentation for vectors in Sage.
See the reference manual for Matrices
Coordinate transformations were included in the Function Plotting section of the manual (although I find it a little confusing). See e.g. Spherical coordinate system.
The section of the reference manual on Plotting vector fields
Thanks for the answer. I am particularly interested in Laplacian operator, Spherical coordinate system, and plotting vector fields in various coordinate systems.
There is also a bunch of work going on in differential geometry which may be of interest: http://www.sagemath.org/doc/reference... and http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ti.... However, if there are things that are not implemented, patches are always welcome!

Sample question: How do I compute symbolic integrals like $\int{sin(x) tan(x)} dx$
How do I understand the result of symbolic integrals
why is symbolic comparison so slow?
