Ok, here I go with a total NOOB question. How does sage work? Is is a series of lines of code that 'manage' the other software that is in the system to produce an end result, basically like a browser with plugins. OR; does it actually incorporate the raw code that is GPLed from all the different 'solvers' into a completely monolithic system, the way a unix kernel gets modified by incorporating modules or drivers into the kernel. It makes no sense to me why we can not use the already installed mathematics apps that are available to us and fill their requirements as 'dependencies'. I dont mean that the current process is wrong. I just don't get it & I want to understand. I'm not a programmer, or a mathematician. I,m a physics hobbyist with a goal of getting sage to be incorporated into my own project. Answers to this & some other questions will aid in that effort. Thanks! frosty
