    Examples

    Define a Manifold and a Patch, and then define two coord systems on that
    patch:

    >>> from sympy import symbols, sin, cos, pi
    >>> from sympy.diffgeom import Manifold, Patch, CoordSystem
    >>> r, theta = symbols('r, theta')
    >>> m = Manifold('M', 2)
    >>> patch = Patch('P', m)
    >>> rect = CoordSystem('rect', patch)
    >>> polar = CoordSystem('polar', patch)
    >>> rect in patch.coord_systems
    True

    Connect the coordinate systems. An inverse transformation is automatically
    found by ``solve`` when possible:

    >>> polar.connect_to(rect, [r, theta], [r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta)])
    >>> polar.coord_tuple_transform_to(rect, [0, 2])
    [0]
    [0]
    >>> polar.coord_tuple_transform_to(rect, [2, pi/2])
    [0]
    [2]
    >>> rect.coord_tuple_transform_to(polar, [1, 1])
    [sqrt(2)]
    [   pi/4]

    Calculate the jacobian of the polar to cartesian transformation:

    >>> polar.jacobian(rect, [r, theta])
    [cos(theta), -r*sin(theta)]
    [sin(theta),  r*cos(theta)]

    Define a point using coordinates in one of the coordinate systems:

    >>> p = polar.point([1, 3*pi/4])
    >>> rect.point_to_coords(p)
    [-sqrt(2)/2]
    [ sqrt(2)/2]

    Define a basis scalar field (i.e. a coordinate function), that takes a
    point and returns its coordinates. It is an instance of ``BaseScalarField``.

    >>> rect.coord_function(0)(p)
    -sqrt(2)/2
    >>> rect.coord_function(1)(p)
    sqrt(2)/2

    Define a basis vector field (i.e. a unit vector field along the coordinate
    line). Vectors are also differential operators on scalar fields. It is an
    instance of ``BaseVectorField``.

    >>> v_x = rect.base_vector(0)
    >>> x = rect.coord_function(0)
    >>> v_x(x)(p)
    1
    >>> v_x(v_x(x))(p)
    0

    Define a basis oneform field:

    >>> dx = rect.base_oneform(0)
    >>> dx(v_x)(p)
    1

    If you provide a list of names the fields will print nicely:
    - without provided names:

    >>> x, v_x, dx
    (rect_0, e_rect_0, drect_0)

    - with provided names

    >>> vector_field = -R2.y*R2.e_x + R2.x*R2.e_y
