I preferred ln(x) well before I learned Maple. Plus, all my textbooks  
used
ln(x). As for Matlab, it might be engineering oriented, but engineers  
didn't
invent it. I've rarely needed ln in Matlab, but I've used it many  
times in Maple.

I'm glad that ln will work in Sage. What does the ln = log mean for the
LaTeX code? I hope that it will output ln(x) instead of log(x).

Thanks,

Tim.
