I am a new Sage user.  In running the tutorial, the solve command would not 
work.  Searching previous questions, I then installed the Command Line 
tools and removed the .sage file, but the solve command is still not 
working.  Here is the error traceback.

        

Traceback (most recent call last):

I will try reinstalling Sage and see if that solves the problem, but is this 
necessary?
