Hey everyone, Two things on that note, I looked over the conventions page and noticed some discrepancies, which is now ticket http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/13791 and I'd appreciate review. Second, Andrea, there are many bugs which are not mathematical problems, but errors in code

Your starting point should be the developer guide (http://www.sagemath.org/doc/developer), not the reference manual. The latter is really for reference. I think the developer manual has a reasonable explanation of the coercion model. A similar treatment of the category framework is sorely lacki

Hi, Actually, I think I agree with the request of WM Chung. I found myself longing for a high-level overview of SAGE development. I think it could be pretty simple, but that it could explain how some things are organized. For instance : *) what is the category framework? what purpose does it serv

I take it the order of facets charged in this call: sage: sigma = rho.facets()[1] The previous facet must be 0, 2, or 3. If you pick the right index then the remaining doctests should be unchanged. On Sunday, December 2, 2012 7:53:30 AM UTC-5, Nathann Cohen wrote: > > I am trying to write a
