It's x.__len__(),not x__len_(), so

sage: v = [1..10]
sage: v.__len__()
10

This would be a great question to ask Guido (inventor of Python)--we  
get it from there. Under the hood, it is OO as len(x) calls x__len__ 
(). I suspect the reason is that functional notation is handy to have  
for very common operations, e.g. in Sage we support sin(x) instead of  
just x.sin() (where the former tries to call the later).

[sage-support] very basic sage question on objects and methods

2009-04-14 Thread Nasser Abbasi


I create a list, using

v=[1..10]

Now, I wanted to find the length of 'v'. I did help(list) and do not
see a method to find the length of a list object.

Then looking more around, I found I can type

len(v)

to find the length of 'v'.  But this is not OO?  Why is there no
method to find the length of a list (I mean as a method in the class
itself). I was expecting to type  object.len() or something like this.

I am using 3.4 version

No, this is a bug that was fixed in Sage 3.4.1.alpha0. See #5613 for a
patch that fixes it.

But there is nothing there since the development versions are not
pushed to that repo.

[sage-support] Re: programming: define a new function

2009-04-14 Thread Maurizio

I think the dirac delta is very widespread both in mechanics and in
electronics (because of frequency domain representation of sine
function as a tone - dirac(w) - centered at the sine frequency),
although I am not sure what about its derivatives. I know this issue
has been taken into account in SymPy in a way pretty similar to
Mathematica's approach.

I frequently use Laplace transform, instead of Fourier (where delta is
very common), so I can't tell so much from my experience with the
MatLab symbolic package (which used to rely on maple as well, before
the MuPad acquisition).

Thanks for showing interest, this is very important :)

The derivative of the dirac delta shows up in solid mechanics, is that

I have major problems with Maple because its integration of Heaviside

[sage-support] programming: define a new function

2009-04-14 Thread Maurizio

Hi all.

I'm willing to invest some of my time to understand if I can be able
to do a step ahead with symbolic functions.

How are special symbolic functions supposed to be defined? I am
willing to experiment with delta of dirac function. This has some
special properties (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function
), some of them are really useful but I don't know how to define them
in a CAS like maxima or SAGE.

I'm aware that it is already present in maxima, even though I don't
think it is recognized by SAGE. I am wondering whether a viable
approach could be to add to calculus.py a section similar to the one
of Function_gamma, so that SAGE simply interfaces to maxima. I don't
know if this is useful or not.

Otherwise, I would be interested in knowing if this could be done with
the new symbolic package. Burcin proved to be very helpful in showing
me a simple way to define delta function by means of its values and he
assigned it as being the derivative of heaviside function (defined in
a sort of piecewise function):

sage: heaviside(x).diff(x)
dirac(x)

is there a way to implement the other properties? I am willing to know
if is there any documentation about that, because I am not able to
find that!

I am willing to learn something about pynac, but please feel free to
discourage me if you think it is too far away from being ready. Is
there any integration or derivation capability ready? Is it possible
to start testing it using maxima's integration capabilities? (I don't
think so...)
I was browsing the todo page ( http://wiki.sagemath.org/symbolics/pynac_todo
) but it seems that many action items went away... are they already
accomplished? (what about the TODO showed in http://wiki.sagemath.org/symbolics
?)

I have to say I find the actual SAGE documentation seems pretty hard
to browse, but could be my fault. Yesterday I lost half an hour
looking for a "numerical solve" or something like that, before finding
the "find_roots" function. Today, I spent half an hour looking for
"differential equation solve" with no success. I am sure I could do
some DE solution in the past (something with maxima, something with
SymPy, I think, all through SAGE), but I think that I found the way to
do it pretty easily browsing the old reference manual...

Thanks a lot

Maurizio

PS: delta of dirac is already in SymPy (
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=672&can=1&q=dirac ),
am I correct in thinking that the current function definition is
different than SAGE? In this case, I assume this could be some good
reading, but not necessarily a source of inspiration, right?

I, and my students who use my 3.4 server, have noticed that cell

[sage-support] Notebook server sluggish in 3.4

2009-04-14 Thread ksk...@gmail.com

I built 3.4 from source on two different but similar machines on our
department network (both 64-bit Opterons running Fedora 10, but
slightly different clock speeds). Those builds run fine in general.

However, running a notebook server results in extremely poor
performance; it consistently takes ten or more seconds to add 2+2 in
the notebook.

Downgrading to 3.2.3 seems to fix this.

[sage-support] grading homework / latex

2009-04-14 Thread gerhard

One implication of the discussion in devel would be javascript and
latex output in the worksheets:

javascript appears to be implemented in
sage/server/notebook/notebook.py

If I understand this code correctly
- allowing users to add their own scripts
  cleanly might entail modifying worksheet_html()
  to prepend a string before the line s += ''
  around line 2367
* Is this correct?
* Is there a way to have an execute initialization code once for a
particular
  notebook? (An 'Init' cell of some sort?)

latex input appears to be implemented in sage/misc/latex.py
modifying \usepackage for latex then seems nothing more
than documenting LATEX_HEADER
(or providing a set of function to modify this variable).

* Is this correct?
* What does SLIDE_HEADER do? Under what circumstance is it
invoked?

thanks,

The problem is ATLAS build by Sage, it uses SSE3 instructions. If you
build from sources on a non-SSE3 CPU ATLAS will not use SSE3
