Take a look at this
http://t2nb.math.washington.edu:8000/home/pub/7/
which I took from an example here
http://www.sagemath.org/tour-quickstart.html
If the view you get is anything like what my browser shows (I could attach a
screen shot later if others browsers see it differently), then the output is
very confusing.
Using *exactly* the same binary version of Sage, but this time at the command
line, I get a much more sensible looking result. (I'm not sure it will appear to
you like that, as the proportional font might screw it up, but when viewed at
the command line, it looks fine)
kir...@t2:[~] $ /usr/local/sage-4.3.0.1-Solaris-10-SPARC-sun4u-or-sun4v/sage
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Sage Version 4.3.0.1, Release Date: 2010-01-28 |
| Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sage: f = 1 - sin(x)^2
sage: integrate(f, x).simplify_trig()
1/2*sin(x)*cos(x) + 1/2*x
sage: print maxima(integrate(f, x).simplify_trig())
cos(x) sin(x) x
------------- + -
2 2
I think this shows the point I made before, that doc tests based on command line
code would not show problems with the notebook.
Perhaps this is some Solaris specific issue why I'm seeing a poor result, but I
think it shows that there should be some automated testing of the notebooks output.
I'm using Firefox 3.1b3 on OpenSolaris. I've not tried it with other browsers.
