Dear all, I would like to differentiate functions that contain unknown functions of the variable. This explanation probably doesn't mean much, so I'd better show an example: sage: var('c x y t') (c, x, y, t) sage: x=function('x',t) sage: y=function('y',t) sage: f=c*x*y sage: diff(f,t)

Hi Robert, I looked at your build log you send me off list and lcalc failed to build. I suspect it is due to some CFLAG option we set, namely using - static-libgcc. According to the log this was added a while back, but I see no reason to add it at all. Can you take the spkg at

[sage-support] Converting/evaluating surd to float [ANSWER]

Hi there, Q: How do you evaluate or convert a surd value generated by SAGE into numerical output? A: Use the .n() method. i.e. sage: sin(10) sin(10) sage: sin(10).n() -0.544021110889370 This bugged me for ages when trying to export data to another program. Perhaps this should be made clearer

I don't think that sin(10) is a surd, though it is certainly irrational and probably even transcendental. If you look up definitions of surd online you get a quite incredible collection of conflicting answers, many of which (even in high school revision guides) are almost complete nonsense.
