[sage-support] sage 5.0 complaining about unsupported hash types

2012-06-11 Thread Chiel92
I just finished installing sage 5.0, but sadly I can't get it to work. It's 
complaining about unsupported hash types. I read on the internet there are more 
people having the problem. No solution found though.
Any help is very much appreciated!

I must mention that sage 4.8 has worked for me. (Until today, but nevermind it. 
I probably screwed it up by installing wrong python version or so, and I want 
5.0 anyway). 

Here is the exact error message:

[sage-support] sagetex difficulty

2012-06-11 Thread John Cremona
I am following the instructions at
http://www.sagemath.org/doc/installation/sagetex.html on a 64-bit
ubuntu machine running sage-5.0, installed in SAGE_ROOT=$HOME/sage-5.0
.

1. I copied cp -R $SAGE_ROOT/local/share/texmf/tex $TEXMFHOME where
$TEXMFHOME is $HOME/texmf (default, not changed).

This created a directory $HOME/texmf/tex/generic/sagetex/ in which are
carious files including sagetex.sty .

2. I created a file example.tex in $HOME (copying the file contents
from http://www.sagemath.org/doc/tutorial/sagetex.html).

3. I ran latex on that file twice.  A file example.sage was created.

4. I ran Sage on that file; to make sure I picked up the right Sage
version from the many on this this machine I did directly

$HOME/sage-5.0/sage example.sage

Result-- output as follows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File example.py, line 5, in module
_st_ = sagetex.SageTeXProcessor('example')
  File /home/jec/sage-5.0/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sagetex.py,
line 68, in __init__
raise VersionError, errstr
sagetex.VersionError: versions of .sty and .py files do not match.
example.sagetex.sage was generated by sagetex.sty version None, but
is being processed by sagetex.py version 2012/01/16 v2.3.3-69dcb0eb93de.
Please make sure that TeX is using the sagetex.sty
from your current version of Sage; see
http://www.sagemath.org/doc/installation/sagetex.html.

[Note that the file mentioend in that message, example.sagetex.sage,
does not exist.]

What did I do wrong?  By the way, if I cd into
$HOME/texmf/tex/generic/sagetex/  and there run latex on the
example.tex file there, it creates a file example.sagetex.sage on
which sage runs fine, and after rerunning latex (twice) I get a dvi
file which looks perfect.

Re: [sage-support] sagetex difficulty

2012-06-11 Thread Andrzej Giniewicz
Had similar issue some time ago on my document build server. Most
likely another sagetex.sty installed with texlive/package management?
It's easy to check which file is used in TeX by doing

kpsewhich sagetex.sty

Another possibility is that you have to run texhash to make TeX
update files it knows, if $TEXMFHOME takes higher priority than system
wide install (it should I believe) then updating file database might
be enough.

Well, I think you'll basically need to upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 if you
want to use the binary that is built for Ubuntu 12.04 :( glibc won't be
the only version mismatch you'll see.

Another option is always to build Sage from source - see instructions in
the manual under Install from Source Code.

[sage-support] Comparison of approximate real numbers

Hi all,

I am puzzled.

sage: 10.44-10.30==0.14
False

How should I compare them to get True? Suddenly Sage feels very alien to

You never compare decimal numbers exactly on a computer.  Because of 
finite precision, there almost always will be corner cases that will 
catch you.  Instead, do something like:


10.44-10.30-0.14  1e-10

or something like that.

Thanks,

That's the weird thing to me: on the LaTeX end, if you're using
sagetex.sty as included with 5.0, it should create
example.sagetex.sage. If it made example.sage, then it must be an
older version of sagetex.sty that somehow got used.

Can you try doing

$ latex example.tex | grep sagetex

That should give you a full path to whatever LaTeX is using when
typesetting your file. That *should* be the same as what kpsewhich
sagetex.sty returns, but perhaps something strange is happening.

 What did I do wrong?  By the way, if I cd into
 $HOME/texmf/tex/generic/sagetex/  and there run latex on the
 example.tex file there, it creates a file example.sagetex.sage on
 which sage runs fine, and after rerunning latex (twice) I get a dvi

That tells me that LaTeX must be getting confused somewhere. We just
need to figure out what wrong version of sagetex.sty it is finding.

 Hi all,

 I am puzzled.

 sage: 10.44-10.30==0.14
 False

 How should I compare them to get True? Suddenly Sage feels very alien to me.
 :-)

Use Python's (hence Sage's) decimal module, which is designed to do
arithmetic with decimal numbers with human (rather than alien)
semantics:

sage: from decimal import Decimal
sage: Decimal('10.44') - Decimal('10.30') == Decimal('0.14')
True
