WWMD (What Would Magma Do) ;-) http://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/magma/htmlhelp/text1285.htm so how about: sage: E = EllipticCurve(...) sage: P = E.random_element() sage: Q = E.random_element() sage: _ = P.tate_pairing(Q,n) I don't work with these objects, so this might be the least desirable solution.
