Hi, it is obvious to me, that specifying assumptions can give us results, when one cannot compute them in general form (and there are samples in docs). But should making assumptions dramatically change them?
This result worries me, is this a known thing, or my misunderstanding of what changes when one "assumes integer"? After assumption, this elementary level (like calculus101) limit changes from 3 to +Infinity, result that doesn't sound right at all: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Sage Version 5.4, Release Date: 2012-11-09 | | Type "notebook()" for the browser-based notebook interface. | | Type "help()" for help. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sage: w = (2^x + 3^x)^(1/x) sage: limit(w, x=oo) 3 sage: assume(x, 'integer') sage: limit(w, x=oo) +Infinity I don't know maxima, but as far as I know, limits are calculated there (at least that was the case when I looked at it last time) - could someone please check if this is wrong there also? It looks like upstream issue, but wanted to make sure and gather second opinion before reporting.
