[sage-support] quick question about the sage dvd and vmware

Does the Sage DVD (not the live cd) require admin privileges to run it on Windows? I suppose this boils down to whether or not the VMWare binary mentioned in the description is the installer for VMWare or if it is actually the executable needed to launch Sage. If it does run off of the DVD withou

[sage-support] Blank Error | Sage Notebook page after server restart

If the sage notebook server is restarted while a logged in user is viewing a notebook page, a user attempt to refresh the page results in a completely blank page titled "Error | Sage Notebook". The user must manually edit the URL to go back to the main server page and login again, presuma

[sage-support] how to use floats properly in cython?

Hi, I'm writin a Cython module for Sage and at some point I want to construct a random matrix with a certain density. But supplying the density as a float to the random_matrix function will always become 0... for example %cython from sage.all import random_matrix,GF cdef float d d = 1/562 print

[sage-support] How to work properly with sage

Hi, I like to have some advice on how to develop my own code and have a proper documentation for it. In python all is clear, you write a .py file and supply the docstring with proper reST text and code for epydoc, doctest and/or Sphinx. With nzmath you can do a lot of math things (and it works
