Actually, the docstring for sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_element.Polynomial_generic_dense.shift does not mention the infix operators '>>' and '<<', but that for sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_element_generic.Polynomial_rational_dense.shift does: sage: R.<x> = QQ[] sage: p = R.random_element() sage: p.shift? -- 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org
