That's a good question! I've written functions in MATLAB (well Octave actually) no problem. But I get confused where Python leaves off and Sage kicks in when witting functions here. Could someone please give me a barebones example, soup to nuts, of a Python vs. Sage vs. Other (Maxima and such) function that does, say, Newton's Method for finding Roots? 1) what does the function look like 2) how do you invoke it 3) what's the input 3) where's the output 4) etc TIA, A.

I need coeficients, each term, sides of the equation, etc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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 -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
