Hi Sage-support did not solicit an answer. Both of these seem wrong:
Is this the intended behaviour? sage: z=1.+sqrt(-1); print z; z.base_ring() 1.00000000000000 + 1.00000000000000*I Symbolic Ring sage: z=1.+sqrt(-1.); print z; z.base_ring() 1.00000000000000 + 1.00000000000000*I Real Field with 53 bits of precision note the sqrt(-1) versus sqrt(-1.) regards, Jan -- .~. /V\ Jan Groenewald /( )\ www.aims.ac.za ^^-^^ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
