Hi Is this the intended behaviour?
sage: z=1.+sqrt(-1); print z; z.base_ring() 1.00000000000000 + 1.00000000000000*I Symbolic Ring sage: z=1.+sqrt(-1.); print z; z.base_ring() 1.00000000000000 + 1.00000000000000*I Real Field with 53 bits of precision note the sqrt(-1) versus sqrt(-1.) regards, Jan -- .~. /V\ Jan Groenewald /( )\ www.aims.ac.za ^^-^^ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
