[sage-devel] SciTools in Sage

2008-09-03 Thread Johannes Ring
Hello Sage developers, I am one of the developers of the Python package SciTools (http://scitools.googlecode.com) and for some time I have seen that there is a package for SciTools in the experimental section in Sage. The package is called scitools++ and it includes not only SciTools, but also

Yes, I ran into that too. I don't much like the fact that elements of GF(p^n) have different types depending on whether n=1 or n1, neither type is a specialisation of the other. I suggest opening a ticket but making it wider, namely to unify the user interfaces for the different finite field

[sage-devel] Fwd: [SAGE] #3999: [with patch, needs review] Wrapper class to treat additive groups as multiplicative goups

2008-09-03 Thread John Cremona
I'm forwarding this entry from trac#3999 to sage-devel so it gets a wider readership. I certainly agree that the main abelian groups implementation in Sage should be based on (additive) Z-modules. Then this wrapper idea would be the way to go to implement multiplcative notation. But that's

John, I just ran into this problem and, while searching for a solution, found this post. I don't know if you eventually got it to work, but it turns out that the solution (under Ubuntu) is to install the package texlive-lang-cyrillic (probably because of Sha). Not quite Klingon, but almost :)

[sage-devel] Hashing and equality of number field ideals

2008-09-03 Thread Nick Alexander
Hi sage-devel, At this time, Sage prints number field ideals in two-generator form. There are good reasons for this, perhaps most notably that this is a normal form best suited for visual inspection. For most of the things I do, I don't care exactly what ideal I have: I would be
