Sure, I'm not asking for a miracle. I don't even want sage to guess at a radical expression unless it already knows one. But if I type sqrt(2) into a matrix over QQbar, or if it e.g. arises from the 2-norm of (1,1), then it should be pretty easy to output "sqrt(2)" and not make my doctests look horrendous. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
