Greetings!
You knew today’s eclipse was a bad omen, didn’t you? Indeed, a new e-copy of
the Sage-based text, “Peering into Advanced Mathematics with Sage-Colored
Glasses,” is now available at this website:
www.math.usm.edu/dont_panic
Various new features include:
- a huge number of typos have been fixed!
(special thanks to Valerio de Angelis at the University of New Orleans)
- a few changes to exposition based on classroom experience
- references to “SageMathCloud” updated to “CoCalc”
- at least one new activity in the Encyclopædia Laboratorica!
- source files now available directly from the website
If it interests you, take a gander!
sincerely
john perry
PS The older edition is available in both full-color and black-and-white
hardcopies at lulu.com, while the newer edition will be available in hardcopy
Real Soon Now (TM). There is no obligation to buy, not even if you want a paper
edition, since the downloadable edition is the same thing (modulo felled trees
+ chemistry) and you can use it to print, photocopy, share, edit, and all the
rest, even for the sake of filthy lucre, without paying us one red cent. (That
said, if you want to support Sage & scholarships, feel free to buy a hardcopy.)

You can’t have gone to a good school. Special subjects at our school included
French, music, ambition, distraction, uglification, and derision, and washing
clothes.
