last line has an unprintable character (after '))'). If I save it (from a news-reader slrn pointed at the corresponding gmane.org newsgroup) this line looks as float(G2[1].norm() - G[1].norm()) =A0> 0 If I save the file from the editor's reply, edit it and load into sSage, it produces a syntax error File "<string>", line 6 float(G2[_sage_const_1 ].norm() - G[_sage_const_1 ].norm()) > _sage_const_0 ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax but it could well be that this character got mangled on its way...
