I'm trying to use the Sage units package and cannot get expected simplifications with things more complicated than +, -, /, *. For example:
sage: a=5*units.length.meter sage: sqrt(a^2) 5*sqrt(meter^2) even though I would expect units of simply "meter". If I try to convert the result to "units.length.meter", I receive "ValueError: Incompatible Units". Similarly sage: (a^3)^(1/3) 5*(meter^3)^(1/3) does not produce the expected units of "meter". Is there a means to force further simplification? -- 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
