It seems that latex(eqn) just evaluates eqn and prints the result in
latex notation, without cutting off annoying 0s or giving the user the
opportunity to set a precision. I find this very annoying, as such
latex output is not very useful for illustration purposes. Does anyone
know a trick how to automatically round ugly numbers for the latex
output? I feel that this should be incorporated into the latex() code,
though.
Here is another illustration of the problem:
latex(0.6*x)
{0.600000000000000 x}
latex(0.6.n(digits=4)*x)
{0.599998500000000 x}
The second attempt became even uglier!
This is on sage 3.1.4 on an Intel Macbook Pro.
Thanks for your help! (Anyone?)
Stan
