Hello everyone, I'm forwarding a conversation I had yesterday with Ondrej Certik. I didn't change anything (wouldn't make any sense I think). It's just some things I'd like to know, and probably everybody's busy, so I apologize for the time taken. Thanks in advance.

I think it's perfectly suitable to post it to sage-devel, or the sympy mailinglist. > I've currently come to a point where I don't really understand the relation > between SymPy and Sage. I wrote something here: http://code.google.com/p/sympy/wiki/Motivation But since sympy is getting integrated into Sage more and more and because both Sage and sympy is evolving, some of the things are not accurate anymore. I'll write a blog post into planet.sagemath.org about sage.calculus, sympy and future. > One of the things that bothers me: you say it's too big, but big shouldn't > be a problem for a full-featured CAS, although I really would like to see > Sage in Debian. Now there are some problems with that, as I understand. Yep. This will improve in time though. > I'm currently trying to write a short text on how to use Linear Algebra > functions in Sage, and I'm really not sure how it's implemented. What about Definitely ask on sage-devel. I am not sure either. > SymPy? There are some LinAlg functions lying around there, right? http://code.google.com/p/sympy/wiki/LinearAlgebraTutorial We have just pure python implementation of the basic stuff. Sage uses some fast libraries to do numeric stuff and also I think polynomial stuff. > What is the standard LinAlg library used by Sage? I really don't get much of > the LinBox talk... I can't find a lot in the Sage-Tutorial/Constructions. > I'm really sorry to bother you, so please excuse the disturbance caused. No problem. Just ask on sage-devel about this, because I don't really know either.
