Dear RJF,
Dear list,
This was an interesting read and I have learnt some things:
* I wrongly assumed floating point in computer context to mean sign
bit, fixed range for mantissa, fixed range for exponent, special
cases for -inf, +inf, +0, -0, nan.
* I think Sage's RealField(prec) is more accur

By the way, when reading the names sage gives to various implemented
things, you should always realise that they are abbreviations.
PowerSeriesRing is an abbreviation for

Bidirectional coercion implies memory leak: The strong references to the

Sorry I've been away for a week, and sorry for quoting so much of
Erik's note. It is unusual for me to disagree with virtually EVERY
statement in such a large collection. Obviously we have different contexts
for almost everything. Now I would not say "violent disagreement" because

Hello,
I am trying in #12212 to allow plotting colored 3D surfaces.
http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/12212
So far, progress has been done on jmol, tachyon and canvas3D viewers.
Does anybody know what is the viewer used in sagemath cloud ?

This kind of error can happen when ECL is upgraded but Maxima is not

Well, I agree that this should be a priority, but you don't know that it
won't happen. This online discussion is set up by Europe to decide on the
topic of a workshop that will take place on 6/7 November. Once the topics
are decided, the main goal in the workshop itself will be to decide on
