There already is a test in sage.matrix.matrix_space that demonstrates that MatrixSpace chooses a matrix implementation depending on the base ring. Apart from that test, you are right: Differences will only arise when random matrices are involved. Is it possible to make execution of a test depend on the *absence* of a condition? Such as sage: MatrixSpace(GF(25,'x'),3).random_element() # optional: meataxe <some output> sage: MatrixSpace(GF(25,'x'),3).random_element() # optional: not meataxe <some other output> Best regards, Simon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
