IMHO we should be very careful to never ever say that. RR is floating point arithmetic which is a useful approximation to reals. But if you are not aware of the differences then you very quickly run into problems with == comparisons. Since RR is not the reals the question is: what is it. The answer to that should always be IEEE floating point or as close as possible to that, since that is the by far most common definition. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
