Hello, When I use the solve() function with this code:
var('r2') c = P*e^(r*n) d = P*(1+r2)^n solve(c==d,r2) I receive the following exception: ======== Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/home/sage/sage_notebook/worksheets/kosan_ma_p236/code/2.py", line 8, in solve(c==d,r2) File "/home/sage/", line 1, in File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/calculus/equations.py", line 379, in solve return f.solve(*args, **kwds) File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/calculus/equations.py", line 251, in solve s = m.solve(x).str() File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 731, in __call__ return self._obj.parent().function_call(self._name, [self._obj] + list(args)) File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 678, in function_call return self.new("%s(%s)"%(function, ",".join([s.name() for s in args]))) File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 580, in new return self(code) File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/interfaces/maxima.py", line 374, in __call__ return Expect.__call__(self, x) File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 536, in __call__ return cls(self, x) File "/opt/sage-2.5.3-linux-32bit-i686-Linux/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sage/interfaces/expect.py", line 765, in __init__ raise TypeError, x TypeError: Computation failed since Maxima requested additional constraints (use assume): Is n an integer? ======== Does anyone have any thoughts on ways to fix this problem?
