Does anyone know what's going on in the following example? I can't seem to reproduce this with a simple example. Basically, I create a few 'callable symbolic expressions', and then define a lambda function that calls a one of them.
Ultimately, I have a function Q = lambda x : RR(bound(15000, 15000^x)) which takes a float and returns a float. (Well, if I change 'RR' to 'float' in the above code, I get the same result.) So, as far as I can tell, the plot() function should just see a function that takes a float and returns a float, and it should just plot it without complaining. Also, if I change my callable symbolic expressions to lambdas, this still doesn't work. But, if I replace Q with Q = lambda x : RR(sin(x)) the everything works fine. I suspect that I might be doing something wrong, since I can't reproduce this with something simpler (and I don't like sending 'what is wrong with my code'-type emails to sage-devel instead of sage-support), but the same thing was happening to me yesterday and I just tried rewriting from scratch, and I don't know what's going on. Maybe there is some sort of bug in sage. Here's the code, and the error. sage: M = var('M') sage: B = .561459483 sage: C1(M) = 1/(4*pi^2) * (B/(log(M))) * (1 - 1/(2 * log(M)^2))^2 sage: C2(M) = 2/(M - 1)^(1/2) * (log(M)^2)/B * (1 - 1/(2 * log(M)))^(-1) + 1/(M-1) sage: bound(N,M) = N * C1(M) - N^2 * C2(M) sage: Q = lambda x : RR(bound(15000, 15000^x)) sage: Q(10) 2.21828479338329 sage: P = plot(Q, (1, 10)) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- <type 'exceptions.TypeError'> Traceback (most recent call last) /home/bober/<ipython console> in <module>() /home/bober/sage/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/plot/plot.py in __call__(self, funcs, *args, **kwds) 2394 # if there is one extra arg, then it had better be a tuple 2395 elif n == 1: -> 2396 G = self._call(funcs, *args, **kwds) 2397 elif n == 2: 2398 # if ther eare two extra args, then pull them out and pass them as a tuple /home/bober/sage/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/plot/plot.py in _call(self, funcs, xrange, parametric, polar, label, **kwds) 2470 del options['plot_division'] 2471 while i < len(data) - 1: -> 2472 if abs(data[i+1][1] - data[i][1]) > max_bend: 2473 x = (data[i+1][0] + data[i][0])/2 2474 try: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: 'float' object is unsubscriptable sage: --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
