We could define a doctest unit to be a sequence of inputs followed by some verified output, terminated by a new input. So: sage: 2+2 4 sage: a = 5 sage: 3+a 8 Is *two* doctest units. If we're testing anything at all about running code except "it didn't crash" (e..g, the "a=5" line), then this seems meaningful. -- William -- William Stein Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
