Hi, There is going to be Sage / SageMathCloud booth at the Joint Mathematics Meetings in Baltimore next week. Like last year, I'm planning to be there *most* of the time, rather than wandering around to lots of talks. Come by, hang out, chat, help, whatever -- thanks! William -- William Stein

Various conversion "morphisms" (e.g. pAdicConvert_QQ_CR in sage/rings/padics/CR_template.pxi) raise an error on some input. I would argue that this behavior is exactly what SetsWithPartialMaps is meant to encapsulate, together with the fact that that the map is just a map of sets on its valid doma

How about you put some money where your mouth is and e.g. work with ATLAS to provide them with a better build system. If you don't then you'll have to agree with me that it would be a great goal but its just is not going to build you an ATLAS library anytime soon. I've helped a number of upstrea

We also talked about build system changes at SD65 (though this is not what this thread is about), where we precisely brought up the point that the build system should be smart enough to not require any build script if the standard configure/make/make install or setup.py works. But many mathema
