Hi Sage Gurus, Am I doing something stupid here:
sage: print 1/2 < 3/7 sage: L=[] sage: for i in range(2,3): ... for j in range(1,2): ... L.append([i,j]) ... sage: print L sage: for P in L: ... print P[1], P[0] ... P[1]/P[0] < 3/7 False [[2, 1]] 1 2 True ---- In plain language: I ask sage whether 1/2 is less than 3/7, and sage tells me "false." I then create the list L = [[2,1]] and loop through L (which has only one element). For P=[2,1], I ask sage whether P[1]/P[0] is less than 3/7 and get "true". The conundrum is that P[1]/P[0] is 1/2, so mathematically I'm getting the answers "false" and then "true" for the same question. So what's going on? I'm sure that there's a simple explanation.
