When I try to make a dense matrix, I get a "MemoryError: out of memory allocating a matrix." I was able to output my matrix into a .txt file and tweak it to be read into Matlab. Matlab was able to compute it pretty quickly, so I feel like it is doable in Sage as well. Maybe I have a problem with my code? I'm unsure how to fix this problem.
