Hi, I am teaching sage to a class of first year math students. Today I was embarrassed when I tried
[i.is_prime() for i in range(1,10)] because this raises an error. Until this point, I deliberately did not mention that there are in fact two kinds of "integers" in sage and avoided to explain about differences of "int" and "Integer". I think that it should be possible for math students to use sage without ever knowing "int". Then there should be an alternative to "range" that produces "Integer"s rather than "int"s. It seems that "interval" should play that role. But to my disappointment, "interval" also produces list of "int"s! Am I missing something? Is there an alternative to "range" and "interval" for my purpose? If not, I suggest to redefine "interval" to produce Integers (and make it iterator), because this is, I think, intended for math students. I seek your opinions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
