[sage-devel] Rational construction
Say I want a function to return a rational, and I have the integers for numerator and denominator. Right now, I have to call the Rational constructor twice: return Rational(self.size())/Rational(n) It seems natural to have something like elif isinstance(x, tuple): .. around line 165 or so in rational.pyx, to allow something like return Rational( (self.size() , n) ) Does anyone mind if I implement this? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

Yes, please do that. Alternatively, just do Integer(self.size()) / Integer(n) since a quotient of two integers is *guaranteed* to be a rational.

[sage-devel] Fwd: I made a good edu app for notebook
I made a quadratic factoring app that shows all three tables that I need the kid I tutor to make. It can not deal with negatives right now. I will work on adding that support. There are some HTML problems with the app. It is very functional. Any comments would be nice. I have saved the worksheet on my thumbdrive so it is ok to make more examples. http://www.sagenb.com/factorq It would be nice someday to have an app site that included this so that a user would not need to type in fq(A,B,C) nor would need Firefox. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
