Hello friends, I am writing this mail to ask for your help in a naming decision. In the file sage/categories/finite_coxeter_groups.py, there is a function called long_element. The docstring asks if this should be renamed and if so, to what?
There are two suggestions from the authors: longest_element, maximal_element. Now, I think "longest_element" is pretty common. But, LiE, Marc's Lie Group computation software seems to call this `long_word()`. 1) what should we pick? 2) I started a ticket to clean up this file on trac: http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/14050 I understand that name changes are to be handled with care. How do we go about this one? Deprecate? With Sincere Regards, Kannappan. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
