Dear all, In previous versions of Sage I was able to do very quickly some * numerical* integrations involving unit_step(t) function .
But, in the last updates (8.9 and 9.0) , it takes 6 times longer to do the numerical integral of convolution with unit_step(), than to do the same operation with a gaussian function. It does not seem to be o.k., comparing the simplicity of unit_step() with the gaussian $e^{-t^2}$. #Compare: var('x,t') f= e^(-(t-1)^2) g= sin(t) fg= lambda t: numerical_integral(f(t=x)*g(t=t-x),0,t,params=[0])[0] plot(fg,t,0,3) #with: var('x,t') f= unit_step(t-1) g= sin(t) fg= lambda t: numerical_integral(f(t=x)*g(t=t-x),0,t,params=[0])[0] plot(fg,t,0,3) Thanks for your attention. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
