I am running code in a loop and certain function might take long or short time. I don't want to wait long and want to continue with the fast cases.
Up to sage 5.12 I used: alarm(5) try: F=mightbelong(n) alarm(0) #to not fire later except KeyboardInterrupt: #alarm alarm(0) continue #alarm free code On 5.13 alarm(0) fails. If I do alarm(0.1);fa=factor(2) I get KeyboardInterrupt which breaks later code though the critical stuff passed. How to cancel a pending alarm()? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
