OK, now I'm curious. I still get errors (with 2.10.1 and with 2.10.2.alpha0), as do a couple of people I asked to test this on IRC. What OS/architecture are you using? Do you get different results than this: sage: import math sage: math.sqrt(float(-1)) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- <type 'exceptions.ValueError'> Traceback (most recent call last) /home/cwitty/sage/<ipython console> in <module>() <type 'exceptions.ValueError'>: math domain error (The Python documentation says that the functions in the math module are not portable in "exceptional" situations; perhaps we should try to avoid these functions...)
