[sage-devel] behavior of (multivariate) polynomial division

2016-07-27 Thread Vincent Delecroix
Hello, We have isomorphism between the following rings R1 = QQ['a']['b']['c'] R2 = QQ['a','b']['c'] R3 = QQ['a']['b','c'] R4 = QQ['a','b','c'] However, sage treats them differently. sage: R1('a').quo_rem(R1('b')) Traceback (most recent call last): ... ArithmeticError: Division non exact (consi
