The "best" [read: easiest] way is to use an interval. Then you get the error, but this will not work for everything. It's also slower. That's also possible for big numbers, have a look at: http://sagemath.org/doc/ref/module-sage.rings.real-mpfi.html maxima i don't know, matlab has good interval libraries, like intlab, but that's outside of sage. also, if you want to do this for more complicated things like differential equations it's much more complicated... h --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
