Hi all! On ticket http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/9706 for the orthogonal Polynomials Jeroen Demeyer came up with the the idea of a SymbolicPolynomial class. I think that's a great idea, because, if well designed, such a class has much potential to give very much comfort to the handling of sage. Because many algorithms that deal with Polynomials have to be called from external programs and libraries.
I already have two things which should be added to such a class: The // operator should enforce polynomial division and return the result, while the % operator should return the remainder of the division. E.g: (x^2 - 2)//(x+1) returns x-1 and (x^2 - 2) % (x+1) returns -1 + we could add features for polynomial algebra More input welcome -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
