I'm trying to do some least squares linear algebra. I built a matrix from
lists that I converted into column vectors and used the 'augment' function.
I used the matrix to compute a least squares solution, and I have an
solution vector, but it's type is making my life difficult.
When I type() an entry in the vector, I get:
'sage.modules.free_module_element.FreeModuleElement_generic_dense'
I want to pull the entries of this vector and use them as coefficients in a
polynomial. My solution is the 3-vector I called x. This attempt at
defining a quadratic
s=var('s')
f(s)=x[0]*s^2+x[1]*s+x[2]
plot(f(s),(s,0,2))
gives me this error
Error in lines 2-2 Traceback (most recent call last): File

I feel like I'm in type hell. Can someone help me get back into the right
Universe for this work? My scouring of Google hasn't turned up anything
helpful.
