No, I agree this isn't the fastest in the world, but it's a great big gigantic improvement over the current state of affairs with singular. It's fast enough that it would totally make my current project feasible with all open code. Thanks for checking out cocoa for me Micheal. So, if I write an spkg and patch for the factorization method, what is the chance that it gets included in 2.9? Or is "somebody" now motivated to do this? As a sidenote, I should add, that it's a great credit to sage that I could so easily pull in magma and get the job done anyhow. That's a killer feature. (But, I know, I'm preaching to the choir.) -- Joel --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
