So it just represents things with x until I ask for the Python variable x to be that x, not the var x. Nice to see the positive review for http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7741 :) Thanks - kcrisman -- 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
