[sage-support] Sage installation problem : Problem in unzipping and CRC error

2008-05-13 Thread Deepa

Hi,
Iam a beginner in SAGE. My OS is Windows and I have downloaded
Sage Windows Binaries (3.0.1) from http://sagemath.org. These were the
steps I followed.

1. Downloaded VMware player
2. Downloaded the zip file of sage.
3. Extracted the file using the freeware 7zip.
4. I got the following errors after unzipping.

CRC failed in 'sage-vmware-3.0.1\disk-s004.vmdk'. File is broken.
CRC failed in 'sage-vmware-3.0.1\disk-s005.vmdk'. File is broken.
CRC failed in 'sage-vmware-3.0.1\disk-s006.vmdk'. File is broken.
CRC failed in 'sage-vmware-3.0.1\disk-s008.vmdk'. File is broken.

5. Double clicked the sage vmx file but the following error was shown
by the VMware
CRC error : System halted

Please help me to install sage in windows. This is very urgent.

Thanx

Most likely your download did not finish.

If you're on a slow connection you may need to get a download manager
so that you can resume your download of the Sage binary (it's over
600Mb).

 Slax linux is created by the purpose of moible. It means:
       running applications without installation.

 If you want to use Sage in our way , you have to do:

 1. prepare one 2G pendriver;
 2. download slax-6.0.7.tar fromwww.slax.org, tar it and copy all
 extracted files to pendrive, just only 2 directory, root and boot.
 This size is about 200mb.
 3.  download the following files 
 inftp://math.cgu.edu.tw/pub/slax/modules/python:
      Sage-3.0.1.lzm, python-2.5.2.lzm
      and put them in the directory on pendriver: $PenDriver/slax/
 optional/python
 4. make pendriver bootable: enter $PenDriver/boot.
     a) Execute   ./bootinst.sh /dev/sda1 in Linux system where /dev/
 sda1 is the device recognized by system;
    b) In Microsoft windowns: Execute cmd and enter $PenDriver, for
 instance, d:\boot, execute
         bootinst.bat d:
 5. Change boot sequence: Press F2 enter BIOS as startup from EeePC,
 choose [boot] and set EeePC boot from PenDriver first.

 Now restart EeePC waits for a moment, You will see Slax Desktop, open
 shell,  activate Sage and python modules by the following commands:

   activate /mnt/live/mnt/sda1/slax/optional/python/python-2.5.2.lzm
   activate /mnt/live/mnt/sda1/slax/optional/python/Sage-3.0.1.lzm
   sage

 =
 If above is too complicated for you, you can also use:
 a) use synaptics install Python-2.5
 b) download Sage-binary, extract it and run; (tested and works OK in
 my EeePC)

 ===
 Or I can create ISO image (about 1.2G if you want) including our
 remastered SLAX linux, including Sage, CAS, fully Python environment,
 VPython, SimPy, pygame, Fenics/Dolfin, TeXmacs and examples etc. With
 the similar procedue, PenDriver can be made as a mobile Linux system
 supporting Sage and others.

 In Taiwan, I had sent such pendriver distro's as present for
 introducing Linux scientific Computation/Visualization  Environment.

 Hope this can help you.

   Hi all,

   I build a live slax linux on 2G USB pendriver with Sage-3.0.1, CAS and
   other python packages, Good news is that sage works well with my EeePC
   701.

   download site:ftp://math.cgu.edu.tw/pub/slax

Hi,

i'm not using an eeepc, but i think your slax + sage + python +...
would be really interesting for many ppl using this sort of software.
Means, an official ISO image would be fantastic :D

I don't think 7zip is being used anymore. I remember it causing
trouble for William's students. Also wasn't the filename extension
7zip in the past and not zip like it is now?

Yes.  7zip is not being used and I don't see anything in the directory

   http://sagemath.org/SAGEbin/microsoft_windows/

to suggest one should use 7zip.

Make sure the file you download is 672MB.

[sage-support] Cannot create notebook.log: Permission denied...Broken pipe

2008-05-13 Thread Travis

My problem is very similar to Aaron's

I downloaded Sage 3.01 for windows (XP).  If I
start up in vmware, log in, and type notebook, the following
displays:



Open Firefox to the address http://192.168.83.128
It may take up to about 10 seconds for the server to start.  Press
Refresh.
(Click here and press control-C twice to stop the notebook server

-
sh: cannot create notebook.log: Permission denied
echo: write error: Broken pipe

At this point, it puts me back at the command prompt.

What part of the installation instructions am I missing?

Thanks, Travis

[sage-support] linear algebra

2008-05-13 Thread andrew . sundstrom

Greetings.  I'm brand new to Sage, and am excited to get started.
I've been using Maple recently, namely the 'linalg' and
'LinearAlgebra' packages.

Browsing the Sage Reference Manual, I don't see an analogue for these
packages.  For instance, I want to perform a pseudo-inverse operation
to solve for an overdetermined linear system.  Can I do this with
Sage?  If so, would you kindly point me to the right place in the
documentation.

Many thanks,
Andrew

Just use the backslash operator or solve_right, e.g.,

sage: a = matrix(QQ, 4, 3, [1..12])
sage: a
[ 1  2  3]
[ 4  5  6]
[ 7  8  9]
[10 11 12]
sage: a.rank()
2
sage: v = matrix(QQ, 4, 1, [4,12,20,28])
sage: a \ v
[4/3]
[4/3]
[  0]
sage: b = a.transpose(); b
[ 1  4  7 10]
[ 2  5  8 11]
[ 3  6  9 12]
sage: w = matrix(QQ, 3, 1, [5,7,9])
sage: b \ w
[1]
[1]
[0]
[0]
sage: b.solve_right(w)
[1]
[1]
[0]
[0]

[sage-support] axes_label in plot appears to be broken

2008-05-13 Thread tkeller

Hi all,
I'm trying to add some simple labels to plots, but axes_label appears
to not be working in sage-3.0.1.  Ticket # 1508 (
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/1508 ) reports this as
fixed, but typing the example given in the ticket info:

s=plot(x^2,(x,0,1))
s.show(axes_label=['x-axis','y-axis'])

yields
Traceback (click to the left for traceback)
...
TypeError: show() got an unexpected keyword argument 'axes_label'

axes_label is not listed as an option in show or plot docstrings, has
this functionality been removed?

Regards,
Thomas

If it is an sws file, just click upload (in the upper left corner) 
when you are viewing all the worksheets in your notebook.
