The main thing which Sage does to decide is to convert the equation into maxima format and then get maxima to evaluate "is m_eqn" where m_eqn is the maxima-ised eqn.

[sage-support] Re: testing for equality
Be careful with bool. It will return False for equations that may be true. Simple example: sage: bool(x == 0) False I believe in some cases it will return False for equations that are actually True if sage doesn't know how to make the necessary simplifications. But if it returns True, you can generally trust that the equation is true.

[sage-support] Copying/moving worksheets
We are running a VMWare server for fall classes. However, we have run into the disturbing problem that if we want to use a newer version of Sage (such as to get the plotting improvements), we would need to (quoting William in the earlier version of this thread) "upload them tediously one by one." This basically means we can't upgrade Sage in the middle of the semester if even a few students decide to use Sage, and we are hoping for a score or two or them to do so. Also, will the user info migrate, or would they have to be readded? One thing the admin has tried is copying old worksheets into different possible directories, just as a crazy thing to do, for instance given http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/browse_thread/thread/ef2d39efd31f5e28/336519680f4e10ae?lnk=gst&q=moving+worksheets#336519680f4e10ae . Now, http://www.sagemath.org/doc/tut/node45.html makes it clear where the worksheet pages are supposed to live. But today I verified that the version of at least one of my worksheets that in fact shows up in the browser lives in ~/sage_notebook/worksheets/admin , while others definitely live in ~/.sage/sage_notebook/worksheets/admin . It isn't a case of a reference, either, because there is an older version of the first worksheet in the .sage directory, while in the other case the worksheet *only* exists in the .sage/ directory. So now I am unsure whether I should even try to move my own worksheets around on my personal computer! I would love to try to fix this but unfortunately know nothing about these issues, and our admin is not likely to try to fix the code. Is there any sense (on support or devel) of whether either of these things might be resolved soon (or in the second case, if it's even been noticed before - I haven't seen it in a fairly exhaustive sage- support search)? We would obviously prefer if yes, but even if not, then at least we can prepare for this properly and not send students on wild goose chases for their data.

[sage-support] Re: testing for equality
Putting == between two symbol expressions creates a symbolic equation, not a test for equality. There is there fore a difference between these: sage: 3 == 3 True sage: x == x x == x This behaviour of == is (I think) unique to the symbolic ring in Sage. You can test for equality like this: sage: dSv-dSvq 0 sage: (dSv-dSvq).is_zero() True though in more complicated examples the expessions might have to be simplified manually. In general in computer algebra, simplifying an expression which simplifies to 0 is easier than trying to find two simplifications of two expressions which appear to be the same. I'm sure there are computer algebra experts reading this who can explain it better.

[sage-support] Re: putting an image in the notebook
I found this post when facing a similar problem. In a different post, I read that any html code can be placed between the cells if we edit the plain text version of the notebook. However, if I try linking to an image in my file system, it is not displayed. does not seem to find the file, while this is not a problem on my system if I create a 'normal' html page. Is there a simple explanation and/or workaround for this?
