Given a symbolic expression u is there some way to tell if u.simplify() accomplished something? All I can think of is comparing the string representations, and that seems a bit silly.
For example, sage: u = sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 sage: u.simplify() cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 sage: u.full_simplify() 1 I'd like to be able to tell that simplify did nothing, but that full_simplify did something. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
