Folks, I have one suggestion for the Sage Tutorial.
In Section 2.3, after the text == sage: def is_even(n): ... return n%2 == 0 == I suggest that you add an instruction to press [Enter/Return/Newline] after the ... return n%2 == 0 to conclude the definition. When I followed the instruction exactly as it is given, without inserting a blank line, I got an error like this: === sage: def is_even(n): ....: return n%2 == 0 ....: sage: is_even(2) ------------------------------------------------------------ File "<ipython console>", line 3 sage: is_even(Integer(2)) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax === It was only after I emailed sage-support that I was told I needed to insert a blank line to conclude the definition. Because I am new to Python, this was not old hat to me. Hence my suggestion to append: ==== Insert a blank line here by pressing [Return or Enter] (after the line ... return n%2 == 0) ==== Many thanks.
