SUCESS!! Thank you very much. I had already changed the sagetex.sty file in my texmf. It had the one that comes with TeXLive, and I put there the one that comes with Sage, since I noticed it was more recent. That didn't seem to help, but I just did what you recommend (sudo gzip sagetex.sty and then

Apparently, I'm not afraid to ask silly questions... First, if someone can tell how to find out the answers by myself to some of the kinds of questions I'm asking, please let me know. 1. Is there a way around Sage's dislike for things like sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)? This doesn't bother me at all, but

What's the easiest way to display unparsed text in an html cell in the Sage notebook? I'd like to be able to display what one would type into a Sage cell and occasionally some LaTeX syntax. Another way of asking this is what's the equivalent of the \verb command in LaTeX? I have been just put

Everyone, I'm wondering if there's an easy way to count the number of operations performed when row-reducing a matrix, and also when reducing polynomials using elements of a Groebner basis. Here are the details. I am comparing the run times of a couple algorithms for computing zero-dimensional

The story gets more complicated: I commented out the \sage{2^100} calculation, and without that, it runs fine. This seems to have no problems: %!TEX TS-program = sage \documentclass{article} \usepackage{sagetex} \usepackage{graphicx} \begin{document} This is an example
