Hi list, I have to deal with unit roots for some calculations. And for simplicity I want to give the n-th unit root a name (lets say xi) instead of dealing with numeric values. Up to know I solved this by definig xi to be the solution of $x^n -1 == 0$ for a given $n$ but how can I name a solution of this equation? Or whatz the best way to handle unit roots in sage? Even father, if I dont specify $n$ and try this:
x,n = var('x,n') assume(n,'integer') assume(x != 1) solve(x**n -1,x) I just get [] as solution. greatz Johannes -- 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
