OK, I stand corrected. It should be simpler: (1,2,3)(4,5)(7,8) should be pre-parsed to ((1,2,3),(4,5),(7,8)) and we can define '*', '^-1', etc simply on the tuples of tuples, can't we? > Should (1,2,3) return a permutation instead of a tuple ? :-PPPP then there will be no difference between a tuple and a cyclic permutation... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
