[sage-devel] Does the default call method of maps really meets its specification?

2010-12-18 Thread Simon King
Hi! Perhaps my question is too technical for sage-devel, but I hope to get a clarification or advice from you. According to the doc string of sage.categories.map.Map.__call__: """ ... - If ``x`` can be coerced into the domain of ``self``, then the method ``_call_`` (single unde

2010-12-18 Thread Volker Braun
The tuning is done in the "configure" script. I would have thought that if that fails and you run "make" then you'd just build ATLAS with broken timings. Do you have a reference? I'm still working on an updated ATLAS spkg that gives up automatic tuning after 2 tries and then proceeds to build
