This gets the result that you want, sage: f = (2 + sqrt(2))/(1 + sqrt(2)) sage: f._sympy_().simplify() sqrt(2) by using SymPy's simplification routine instead of the default Maxima one. I'm not sure how safe that is in general (e.g. it might do weird things with complex numbers), so I'd read through the SymPy docs before using it on anything important. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
