Hi, I tried the suggestion to use the command SAGE64=yes export SAGE64 that was suggested as response to my last message by David Kirkby. (My last message was that I could not install sage-4.6.2 to a machine running Centos 5.5. This is a 64 bit machine with i7 8 core processor.) However that see

Do you mean something like: #fibonacci def fib(n): if n==0 or n==1: return 1 return fib(n-1)+fib(n-2) #output sequence for i in range(10): print fib(i) #output series sum=0 for i in range(10): sum+=fib(i) print sum HTH, A. Jorge Garcia Applied Math and CompSci http://shadowf

Hello. Thank you for showing me the equivalent process in PARI/GP. I think this implies I need to transfer the complex Hermitian matrix into gp_console() to find eigenvectors, then transfer them back to Sage. I'll update this post when I figure out how to do that. In the mean time, if someone has

I'm just wondering if there is a canonical (i.e. convienient(i.e. lazy)) way to define simple sequences and series in sage. In particular, is there a standard way to define recursive series? Suppose for example that You wanted to define the series a_n=1/n^2. Is there a way to do this without writi
