I like RealFloats and ComplexFloats as well; however, I think it's too early to relinquish RR and CC. There's no "exact real field" presently and if it is ever realized, it should probably be called ExactRealField or something similar to stress that it is NOT what people generally expect it to be for the coming 25 years at least (because programming and calculators will continue to deal primarily with floats). Any implementation of ExactRealField will need to prove itself over an extended time period and in a variety of applications before we can propose it as a default choice.
Leave the default values of RR and CC to what they are until it's clear that there's a uniformly better default for them. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
