Hi, I'm trying to do something that I think should be simple based on my experience with Mathematica, but I have been unsuccessful doing it in Sage. I've searched around quite a bit, but I can't find any examples. Basically, I'm defining a function that isn't a nice closed form function (below it's called g). In this case it is defined as a Laplace integral. I just want Sage to evaluate it (approximate it) at particular values that I stick in.
var('x,s') f(x) = 1/(x+1)^2 g(s) = f.laplace(x,s) g s |--> laplace(1/(x + 1)^2, x, s) # this is ok, but I want a numerical approximation g(10) laplace(1/(x + 1)^2, x, 10) # let me try to get the numerical approximation g(10).n() TypeError: unable to coerce '?%laplace(1/(x+1)^2,x,10)' to float How can I get around this? Or am I just thinking about all this the wrong way? Thank you in advance! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
