[sage-support] Vehicle routing problems in sage

2012-03-15 Thread Chris Kees
Hi, Does anyone know of research being done in sage on combinatorial optimization like the traveling salesman and vehicle routing problems? Thanks, Chris -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...

I am able to manipulate the functions, but I am unable to plot them. Here is the code: a,l,x,y,u,v,xdot,ydot,udot,vdot = var('a,l,x,y,u,v,xdot,ydot,udot,vdot', domain = RR) i = var('i', domain = QQ) xdot = x; ydot = y; udot = u^2+v; vdot = v^2+u; N = matrix([(diff(xdot,x)-l,diff(xdot,y

You'd want to make sure this behavior is well documented, otherwise it could have unexpected behavior (e.g. what happens if you try to plot it? Is 10.5 treated as a degree or radian?) I'll be prudent since I am the user. It is not intended to be plotted. What I'm doing is a class "Angle" that

Laurent, I your question you gave an example where you set A=4, after which A has the type Integer: sage: A=4 sage: type(A) and it would not make very much sense to provide a method for this class to test for integrality, since every such element is an Integer by definition. I suspect that in

3. If, in your application, it is enough to know whether the given object x is equal to an integer, then you could do "x in ZZ". Note that this property has nothing to do with the type! CONCLUSION: We already have four different meanings of the question "Is x an integer?". Since different m
