        This determines if it is allowed to take derivatives wrt this object.
        Subclasses such as Symbol, Function and Derivative should return True
        to enable derivatives wrt them. The implementation in Derivative
        separates the Symbol and non-Symbol _diff_wrt=True variables and
        temporarily converts the non-Symbol vars in Symbols when performing
        the differentiation.

        Note, see the docstring of Derivative for how this should work
        mathematically. In particular, note that expr.subs(yourclass, Symbol)

        there are free symbols it is possible that the expression is a
        constant, perhaps (but not necessarily) zero. To test such
        expressions, two strategies are tried:

        1) numerical evaluation at two random points. If two such evaluations
        give two different values and the values have a precision greater than
        1 then self is not constant. If the evaluations agree or could not be
        obtained with any precision, no decision is made. The numerical testing
        is done only if ``wrt`` is different than the free symbols.

        2) differentiation with respect to variables in 'wrt' (or all free
        symbols if omitted) to see if the expression is constant or not. This
        will not always lead to an expression that is zero even though an
        expression is constant (see added test in test_expr.py). If
        all derivatives are zero then self is constant with respect to the
        given symbols.

        If neither evaluation nor differentiation can prove the expression is
        constant, None is returned unless two numerical values happened to be
        the same and the flag ``failing_number`` is True -- in that case the
        numerical value will be returned.

        If flag simplify=False is passed, self will not be simplified;
        the default is True since self should be simplified before testing.

        >>> from sympy import symbols
        >>> from sympy.abc import x, y, z

        You can select terms that have an explicit negative in front of them:

        >>> (-x + 2*y).coeff(-1)
        x
        >>> (x - 2*y).coeff(-1)
        2*y

        You can select terms with no Rational coefficient:

        >>> (x + 2*y).coeff(1)
        x
        >>> (3 + 2*x + 4*x**2).coeff(1)
        0

        You can select terms independent of x by making n=0; in this case
        expr.as_independent(x)[0] is returned (and 0 will be returned instead
        of None):

        >>> (3 + 2*x + 4*x**2).coeff(x, 0)
        3
        >>> eq = ((x + 1)**3).expand() + 1

        >>> [eq.coeff(x, i) for i in reversed(range(4))]
        [1, 3, 3, 2]
        >>> eq -= 2
        >>> [eq.coeff(x, i) for i in reversed(range(4))]
        [1, 3, 3, 0]

        You can select terms that have a numerical term in front of them:

        >>> (-x - 2*y).coeff(2)
        -y
        >>> from sympy import sqrt
        >>> (x + sqrt(2)*x).coeff(sqrt(2))
        x

        The matching is exact:

        >>> (3 + 2*x + 4*x**2).coeff(x)
        2
        >>> (3 + 2*x + 4*x**2).coeff(x**2)
        4
        >>> (3 + 2*x + 4*x**2).coeff(x**3)
        0
        >>> (z*(x + y)**2).coeff((x + y)**2)
        z
        >>> (z*(x + y)**2).coeff(x + y)
        0

        In addition, no factoring is done, so 1 + z*(1 + y) is not obtained
        from the following:

        >>> (x + z*(x + x*y)).coeff(x)
        1

        If such factoring is desired, factor_terms can be used first:

        >>> from sympy import factor_terms
        >>> factor_terms(x + z*(x + x*y)).coeff(x)
        z*(y + 1) + 1

        >>> n, m, o = symbols('n m o', commutative=False)
        >>> n.coeff(n)
        1
        >>> (3*n).coeff(n)
        3
        >>> (n*m + m*n*m).coeff(n) # = (1 + m)*n*m
        1 + m
        >>> (n*m + m*n*m).coeff(n, right=True) # = (1 + m)*n*m
        m

        If there is more than one possible coefficient 0 is returned:

        >>> (n*m + m*n).coeff(n)
        0

        If there is only one possible coefficient, it is returned:

        >>> (n*m + x*m*n).coeff(m*n)
        x
        >>> (n*m + x*m*n).coeff(m*n, right=1)

        * .expand(mul=True) to change Add or Mul into Add
        * .expand(log=True) to change log expr into an Add

        The only non-naive thing that is done here is to respect noncommutative
        ordering of variables and to always return (0, 0) for `self` of zero

        For nonzero `self`, the returned tuple (i, d) has the
        following interpretation:

        * i will has no variable that appears in deps
        * d will be 1 or else have terms that contain variables that are in deps

        should always be positive and ``Mul(*foo.as_content_primitive()) == foo``.
        The primitive need no be in canonical form and should try to preserve
        the underlying structure if possible (i.e. expand_mul should not be
        applied to self).

        Examples
        ========

        >>> from sympy import sqrt
        >>> from sympy.abc import x, y, z

        >>> eq = 2 + 2*x + 2*y*(3 + 3*y)

        The as_content_primitive function is recursive and retains structure:

        >>> eq.as_content_primitive()
        (2, x + 3*y*(y + 1) + 1)

        Integer powers will have Rationals extracted from the base:

        >>> ((2 + 6*x)**2).as_content_primitive()
        (4, (3*x + 1)**2)
        >>> ((2 + 6*x)**(2*y)).as_content_primitive()
        (1, (2*(3*x + 1))**(2*y))

        Terms may end up joining once their as_content_primitives are added:

        >>> ((5*(x*(1 + y)) + 2*x*(3 + 3*y))).as_content_primitive()
        (11, x*(y + 1))
        >>> ((3*(x*(1 + y)) + 2*x*(3 + 3*y))).as_content_primitive()
        (9, x*(y + 1))
        >>> ((3*(z*(1 + y)) + 2.0*x*(3 + 3*y))).as_content_primitive()
        (1, 6.0*x*(y + 1) + 3*z*(y + 1))
        >>> ((5*(x*(1 + y)) + 2*x*(3 + 3*y))**2).as_content_primitive()
        (121, x**2*(y + 1)**2)
        >>> ((5*(x*(1 + y)) + 2.0*x*(3 + 3*y))**2).as_content_primitive()
        (1, 121.0*x**2*(y + 1)**2)

        Radical content can also be factored out of the primitive:

        >>> (2*sqrt(2) + 4*sqrt(10)).as_content_primitive(radical=True)
        (2, sqrt(2)*(1 + 2*sqrt(5)))

        If clear=False (default is True) then content will not be removed
        from an Add if it can be distributed to leave one or more
        terms with integer coefficients.

        >>> (x/2 + y).as_content_primitive()
        (1/2, x + 2*y)

        Return True if self is a polynomial in syms and False otherwise.

        This checks if self is an exact polynomial in syms.  This function
        returns False for expressions that are "polynomials" with symbolic
        exponents.  Thus, you should be able to apply polynomial algorithms to
        expressions for which this returns True, and Poly(expr, \*syms) should
        work if and only if expr.is_polynomial(\*syms) returns True. The
        polynomial does not have to be in expanded form.  If no symbols are
        given, all free symbols in the expression will be used.

        This is not part of the assumptions system.  You cannot do
        Symbol('z', polynomial=True).

        The optional ``logx`` parameter can be used to replace any log(x) in the
        returned series with a symbolic value to avoid evaluating log(x) at 0. A
        symbol to use in place of log(x) should be provided.

        Advantage -- it's fast, because we don't have to determine how many
        terms we need to calculate in advance.

        Disadvantage -- you may end up with less terms than you may have
        expected, but the O(x**n) term appended will always be correct and
        so the result, though perhaps shorter, will also be correct.

        If any of those assumptions is not met, this is treated like a
        wrapper to series which will try harder to return the correct
        number of terms.

        See also lseries().

        Examples
        ========

        >>> from sympy import sin, log, Symbol
        >>> from sympy.abc import x, y
        >>> sin(x).nseries(x, 0, 6)
        x - x**3/6 + x**5/120 + O(x**6)
        >>> log(x+1).nseries(x, 0, 5)
        x - x**2/2 + x**3/3 - x**4/4 + O(x**5)

        Handling of the ``logx`` parameter --- in the following example the
        expansion fails since ``sin`` does not have an asymptotic expansion
        at -oo (the limit of log(x) as x approaches 0):

        >>> e = sin(log(x))
        >>> e.nseries(x, 0, 6)
        Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
        PoleError: ...
        ...
        >>> logx = Symbol('logx')
        >>> e.nseries(x, 0, 6, logx=logx)
        sin(logx)

        In the following example, the expansion works but gives only an Order term
        unless the ``logx`` parameter is used:

        >>> e = x**y
        >>> e.nseries(x, 0, 2)
        O(log(x)**2)
        >>> e.nseries(x, 0, 2, logx=logx)
        exp(logx*y)
