There are m.right_nullity() and m.left_nullity() sage: m = matrix(RR,[[1,-1,2,0,3],[2,-1,3,-1,2],[3,0,3,0,6],[6,0,6,-1,9]]) sage: m.left_nullity() 1 sage: m.right_nullity() 2 Is there something wrong in documentation regarding them? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
