The biggest change is updating to Pyrex 0.9.5.1a (see http:// www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/greg.ewing/python/Pyrex/version/ CHANGES.txt ), plus a couple of other minor changes (including bugfixes from Jim Kleckner and Joel Mohler). There is now an extra command-line option: --pre-import <module>. It compiles with the assumption that all undeclared names come from <module>. Of course this may lead to runtime name errors, but will be very useful in the notebook. I also implemented Gonzalo's suggestion to add an option to use gcc's __builtin_expect() to give branch prediction hints (specifically that raising errors are unlikely). Surprisingly, this actually made things slower in some cases, so I commented those out. If anyone could take a look at this and has some insight as to why this is the case, I would really like to know 'cause it's just baffling me. - Robert --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
