I'm wondering if we could have an update on the basic calculus rewrite which was discussed a while ago on the mailing list? I'm giving a talk on SAGE in a week and I might want to have a basic calculus demo if it's ready to show. I'm also wondering what are the most common usage methods of SAG

I use the notebook about 99% of the time. Quite frequently, I'll use the public notebook while I'm at school, so I can download the worksheet later on. Very handy for experimenting / jotting ideas down. On Thu, 1 Mar 2007, Joel B. Mohler wrote: > > I'm wondering if we could have an update o

I mostly use the notebook, too which is what I think we can expect the average calculus student to use. This student would want instant graphics (not available in either 2) or 3)), copying and pasting via ctrl-c and ctrl-v, interactive tab completion and documentation. N [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I probably do about 80% notebook and 20% command line. For real quick things the command line is more convenient, but if I ever do anything I want to mess with again later, the notebook is the best place to do it. Alex --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, s
