Of course, it'd be nice if every function had ample documentation, but I'd rather have 100% coverage on all user-accessible functions in two files, than 100% coverage in one file for def/cpdef and cdef functions. Also, often the "inderect" tests for cdef functions seem to be redundant with the doctests exposed functions. - Robert --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
