[sage-support] Re: Jmol causing Firefox crash

2009-04-10 Thread J Elaych

Yes, I went ahead and upgraded to the current Jaunty beta.  Then
I went into synaptic and 1) removed the ia32-sun stuff, 2) did a
"complete removal" of both iced-teas, and 3) installed the
sun-java6-plugin.   Now everything works:  the jmol/atoms demo
and all the jmol sage notebooks.

Now we just need Adobe to get Acroread into 64bits and I can
remove ia32-libs completely, and good riddance it will be.

If I remember correctly Derive had such a "step by step" mode for
various things like limits, integration and so on. Derive itself was
killed as a product, so AFAIK you cannot buy it any more.

Thanks again, Jason.

Tried the manual Evaluate All and it made all the outputs
disappeared.  Even worse, the regular evaluation methods, shift-enter

And you can certainly use Sage to construct such a solution, step by 
step.  Sage won't automatically show you each step when you ask it to 
solve the quadratic equation, though.

No, there's no way to do that currently in Sage. However, there are

I'm sure they can.  We need someone to adjust the CSS style for 
printouts so that it looks nice!  I'm not sure where that print css 
information is stored, though.  It looks like it might be in 
sage/devel/sage/sage/server/notebook/css.py, where we see this:

/* used for printing */
div.cell_input_print {
   background-color: white;
   border-left: 1px solid  #a8a8a8;
   border-bottom: 1px solid  #a8a8a8;
   border-top: 1px solid  #a8a8a8;
   border-right: 1px solid  #a8a8a8;
   font-family: monospace;
   font-size:12pt;
   padding-left:5px;

   padding-bottom:0px;
   margin-top:0px;
   margin-bottom:0px;
   line-height:1.2em;
   width: 97%;
}


The border-left,right,top,bottom things are the things causing the 
border, I think.  Just change those, then start Sage with "sage -br" to 
make your changes effective.

Click on the "Help" item at the top right of the notebook.  The 
instructions are next to the item HTML.  Looking at it now:

1. the instructions could be better (they should mention the blue bar)

2. There should be a mention of the shift-click under "Insert a cell" as 
well.

Thanks, Jason.

%auto is helpful to evaluate the cells when reopen the worksheet.
Sometimes it is a very frequent task to re-evaluate the resuls for
different inputs.  So it will be nice to have a BUTTON named EVALUATE
ALL to execute all the cells from top down to the bottom.  The refresh/
reload doesn't help to do this even after saved the new inputs.

Another question for the printing, can the frame lines of the cell be
made invisible in the printout?

You have to shift-click on the blue bar between cells.  That bar (that 
pops up as you move the mouse between cells) is the "insert here" bar. 
Are you shift-clicking on that?

And "last stable" is not very old, actually: It dates from 2009-03-12,

It doesn't take the variable of integration (as there can be only one  
unbound variable). The fact that it doesn't is probably a bug, for  
consistency the notation

 numerical_integral(f, (x, a, b))

should be accepted. See the docstring:

sage: numerical_integral?

Type:   builtin_function_or_method
Base Class: 
String Form:
Namespace:  Interactive
Docstring:

Returns the numerical integral of the function on the interval
from a to b and an error bound.

EXAMPLES:
   To integrate the function x^2 from 0 to 1, we do
   sage: numerical_integral(x^2, 0, 1, max_points=100)
   (0.1, 3.7007434154171879e-15)


sage: numerical_integral(log(x)/x^(1.002),1,10)

If you put "%auto" at the top of the cell on a line by itself, it will

[sage-support] Sync notebooks between different servers

2009-04-10 Thread rpmul...@gmail.com

I have a sage server set up at work where different people in my group
can view and collaborate with programs. However, when I travel, this
site is unavailable to me, and I'd like to be able to work on my sage
scripts during this time. Of course, I can always download the scripts
before I leave, and upload the modified scripts when I return, but I
was curious whether anyone found a more intelligent way to sync the
notebooks.

Thanks in advance,
Rick

Even though I may not need edit the cell anymore, I still need execute

Huh, thanks for pointing this out.  Apparently show3d() chokes on loops 
(that's the error: I think it's trying to make a cylinder (edge) with 
length 0).  Also, show3d doesn't show multiple edges.


I see William made http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5733 to

That's right.  I think the reasoning is that %hideall just completely 
gets rid of the input from view.  However, when you're actually putting 
them in, you might have some second thoughts and want to re-edit the 
cell.  My process with %hideall cells is usually:

1. Make cells %hideall.  However, sometimes I haven't completely 
polished those cells to perfection.  So I'm glad I can still click on 
the grey %hideall and tweak the input cells.

2. When I have polished everything, I save, quit, and reopen the 
worksheet.  I think of this as committing the hideall cells to actually 
be hideall cells.

I realize that I could just do this by making the cells %hide, and then 
just at the end making all of the %hide cells into %hideall cells, if 
%hideall actually got rid of the input from view immediately.  Maybe 
that would be a better way to do things; more consistent for the user, etc.

Iterators can come back in any order, so I'm not sure this is supposed

Pat, It would be great if you could post a patch doing this to :

   http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5718

Then you could get your name in the credits for sage-3.4.1 (or 3.4.2)!

fedora alternatives provides a way of managing these problems.

The purpose of hideall is the following: hide the entire input cell,
with the only possible way to see the input cell to click on "Edit"
and switch to the text edit view.

If that isn't the current behavior, then it is a bug.

The latest development version is here:

Building this is easy -- it's exactly the same as building the released version.

[sage-support] Re: %hide not hiding when printing

2009-04-10 Thread Pat LeSmithe


It also disappears on page refresh/reload.  The "culprit" seems to be in
Cell.html(), which renders a cell as HTML, around line 1630 of cell.py:

if 'hideall' in self.percent_directives():
s = html_out
else:
s = html_in + introspect + html_out

I'm still confused about the purpose of %hideall.

Anyway, to get %hide to work, scroll down to Cell.html_in() and add
something like

if 'hide' in self.percent_directives():
return ''

to the "if do_print:" conditional.

Thanks,

So it seems that there is no (easy or otherwise) way to build from
latest development tree, only from the last "stable" source tarball.

That's what I was hoping for.

I got a new issue after change to %hideall.  Each time reopening the
workbook the %hideall cell is missing (the results are still there).
Cannot see the greyed %hideall and tried to click that area still
won't activate the hidden cell.  I have to use the edit to comment
%hideall to let the cell shows up.  It seems like if you don't close

I had the same problem, which I fixed by adding one of the Jaunty
multiverse repositories to the software sources, then reloading the
list of packages in Synaptic (by clicking the Reload button),
upgrading sun-java6 packages, installing new sun-java6-plugin package
and uninstalling icedtea6-plugin package. After that, I removed Jaunty
from the software sources.

Hopefully, soon Jaunty will be available for upgrading, and that will
be even easier to do.

Fantastic! I see that it is fixed already! I just added lambdas to my
graph_plot.py file and the graph plots OK.

Meanwhile, I've noticed that the degrees are printed not in the order
of vertices in this graph,

G.degree()
[6, 6, 6, 3, 5]
[i for i in G.degree_iterator()]
[6, 6, 6, 3, 5]

while it should be as in

[G.degree(i) for i in G.vertices()]
[6, 6, 6, 5, 3]
