Left and right hand side of these equations are identically the same. So, of course the answer is 1. I thought you want to compare quotient(J,x3) with J and quotient(I,x3) with I? And this gives: > matrix(std(quotient(I,x3))) == matrix(std(I)); 1 > matrix(std(quotient(J,x3))) == matrix(std(J)); 0 Cheers, Simon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
