What I think Mr. Rennekamp's answer shows beyond dispute is that someone who is well-intentioned and motivated still finds it difficult to sift through the vast archipelago - and it is a real cluster of islands, some closer together than others - of Sage documentation. (We haven't even started mentioning non-Sage-doc resources like the French Sage intro, Greg Bard's book, or http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/~mosulliv/Teaching/sdsu-sage-tutorial/, all of which many people find helpful.)
A very helpful first start would be to find ways to make http://www.sagemath.org/help.html less overwhelming. Also, http://doc.sagemath.org as a first-level link on the home page is a bit contextless. I understand that it is auto-generated so not necessarily good to do much with it, but it's hopeless for anyone who is not an illuminatus. In particular, the original Tutorial is not written for the people one would usually think of as beginners to doing math in a computer. Some of the other thematics/PREP tutorials are, but it is probably hard for people to find which ones. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
