To make sure you did not misunderstand me: I suggested disabling tested for the possibly affected routines altogether. Anyway, if the dependencies are explicit this problem doesn't even exist. On Dec 22, 3:59 pm, Jeroen Demeyer wrote: > > But if the routines return > > different values which are

ure of dependencies. That's of course a perfectly justified opinion, but I think it shouldn't become an argument to support the wrongly made (in my opionion) point that SAGE can generally not conform to the principles of software interdependency (or shouldn't). On Dec 22, 2:54 pm, Jeroen

2010-12-22 Thread Cedric
I love SAGE but then there is one flaw in it that I find one of the most severe in software-design of all. From my layman point of view (which I'm sure is wrong and unjustified) a software that bundles every single of its dozens dependencies has either a fundamental design flaw or is extremely badl

2010-07-04 Thread Cedric
Hello guys, I just wanted to use Sage for solving a symbolic system of known and unknown matrices and wondered whether one can forgo the tedious process of introducing, say 18 variables for just two 3x3 matrices and instead declare matrices as symbolic. Did anyone ever thought of doing something li

Hello everyone, this problem has been brought up several times, yet all the threads end without any solution whatsoever. Let me quickly sum this up: Ubuntu 10.4LTS x86_64 and the latest SAGE binaries provided for that specific version on the homepage. All files copied into /opt/sage/. As JAVA
