[sage-devel] Fnc returns 0 int
A function def foo( ): return 0 evaluates type( foo( ) ) to type 'sage.rings.integer.Integer' But then I put this function into bar.py like so bar.py: from sage.all import * def foo( ): return 0 and import bar type( bar.foo( ) ) returns type 'int' Needless to say, this causes a bunch of new errors if my code assumes that I get a sage type (I came across this because I did something like real( ) on the result).

Hi, I suspected it would have something to do with the interpreter.
Thanks for the explanation!

Is this expected behaviour?
Yes. If you import a Python module, then it is the expected behaviour
that you get a Python int and not a Sage Integer.
In interactive sessions (command line or notebook) and when you attach a
.sage-file, then a preparser comes into play. For example:
sage: preparse('1')
'Integer(1)'
sage: preparse('f(x) = x^2')
'__tmp__=var(x); f = symbolic_expression(x**Integer(2)).function(x)'
sage: preparse('R.x,y = QQ[]')
R = QQ['x, y']; (x, y,) = R._first_ngens(2)
So, typing 1 in an interactive session results in a Sage Integer
*only* because the preparser makes it so. Similarly, the preparser makes
it possible to define a symbolic function or a polynomial ring in a nice
syntax.
But when you write a Python module then there is no preparser. Hence,
you need to adhere to Python syntax.
Best regards,
Simon

Re: [sage-devel] Re: SQRT of negative number is negative? Or positive? Or what?
I think you shouldn't blame it all on the user. I understand and appreciate that Sage makes a clear distinction between different types and handles them differently. But that doesn't explain the numerous errors which are caused by SAGE's funtions which should work with a specific type, but simply refuse to. Here is another instance: http://alpha.sagenb.org/home/pub/701/ It does not work because abs( ) returns an Expression which will cause find_local_minimum to cause errors. This is one instance of dozens I've encountered. Other examples include functions returning floats while yet others cause errors when called with floats instead of Reals, etc...

Thank you John and the others, too. That clarifies it.

[sage-devel] Functions returning float
I think there is a conceptual problem with function returning floats. Consider the following: def find_roots( func,l,r ): tol = 1e-10 try: result = find_root( func,l,r ) ) except RuntimeError: return [] return find_roots( func,l,result-tol )+[ result ]+find_roots( func,result+tol,r ) Ignoring, for the moment, that find_root returns a float, too (and therefore is a problem by itsself). If func is a function which does not automatically evaluate to a number (where only evalf_func evaluates), we need to write [...] find_root( lambda x: func.n( x ),l,r ) instead, because otherwise find_root crashes. But then, this doesn't work if func returns a float, because float has no .n( ). So what's the solution to this dilemma?

[sage-devel] Negative Number cannot be raised to fractional power

[sage-devel] Re: Functional derivative consistent with current .diff( )
The resulting symbolic expression must contain a different sort of information. For example ∂²f/[∂J(x1)∂J(x2)] does not have a analogon, if you try to dervive it in terms of ordinary differentiation with subsequent substitution. Structurally, for the functional derivative, you must basically be able to differentiate a function of infinitely many arguments (thus on an infinitely dimensional space) with regard to one of those arguments. The ordinary partial derivative obviously does not capture this kind of operation. I was contemplating that, perhaps, such an operation could be implemented on top of a function *f: ℂ∞ ⊕ … ⊕ ℂ∞ → ℂ* * * for f[J(x)] that would just be f: ℂ∞ → *ℂ. *But even if I'm able to express that function in SAGE, we'd still need some notion of a derivative on that.

[sage-devel] Re: Ubuntu 10.04, JMOL, Java
Hello Paulo, firstly, I've tried both, Sun from the Partner repositories and OpenJDK with IcedTea and none of them works. Currently I'm using Sun's JAVA, that is where I get these exact errors in the console. I've tried both with Firefox - I've even never heard of Chromium (only Google Chrome) Adam Webb, I hope you don't mind that I reply to you in this thread for not to have two threads concerning the same issue (sorry for creating it in the first place). You reply is actually very helpful to me, because that way I have great hopes that I *can* get it to work. Although I don't see why additional Java stuff would help it (Java appears to be fully functional and, as mentioned, other applets work flawlessly), it's a good idea to get me some additional stuff - you never know. I'll look at the Open-Office suite and what Java it recomments. Maybe one fixes it. In the meantime I was hoping that someone could extract some information from the error. I, for example, am surprised that it mentions lines line 1 command 1 of /home/admin/0/cells/1/sage0-size500.jmol? 1276349004: !DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN Which are nowhere in either of the files. Besides, the files appear to be okay. The only difference to the ones on the JMOL wwebpage whose applets do work is that latter tramsit the data directly in a bz file whereas SAGE transmits a file to JMOL, telling it where the actual data can be found, which then is a ZIP file.

I don't see how the site you mentioned would help. Installing JAVA was no problem and it works just fine, including JMol applets on the jmol.sourceforge site. This is most likely a problem of SAGE. I've no ideas how to tackle it. Everything appears to be returned correctly, from what I can tell, meaning that SAGE provides a JMol file which says set defaultdirectory sage0-size500-306189399.jmol.zip script SCRIPT and the according zip-file has the required contents. However, the console gives out an error saying Out of curiosity, are you using openjdk with firefox or chromium browser? I opened a bug report athttp://icedtea.classpath.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=493where I describe the procedure I used to make openjdk work with chromium, but in sage, jmol for some reason only works with chromium in the tutorial. If I create a new worksheet, I get the errors that appear to be the same you describe (html contents where a jmol input was expected). Also in my case, it appears to be some problem that firefox works around, but I still did not stop to debug the data being sent/received... -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
