Just to throw a few thoughts in, I think sage is excellently positioned to have a big impact for empiricists and theoreticians within the biological sciences as well as bio-informatics. I haven't trudged through much of openwetware yet, but it might be useful to expand/make another page that show

[sage-devel] small extension to foo.show() for simple plots

2008-06-11 Thread tkeller
Hi folks, I finished coding a few changes to foo.show to make it easy to display plots for use in papers etc without having to directly interact with matplotlib. Specifically, for regular plots, (I haven't tried this with contour plots but it should play well with minor additions), I've added an

I'm working on modeling the efficacy of a hypothetical infectious vaccine (like the live polio vaccine). I have lots of small coding chunks that makes the sage notebook great for working through each section of the problem. Sage including scipy and networkx has eliminated a lot of the tedium I w

[sage-devel] does zn_poly normally take a long time to build?

2008-07-16 Thread tkeller
The last build I built from source (3.0.3) took ~ 3 hours total on my average dell laptop (running kubuntu 8.0.4.1). Building 3.0.5 is ongoing, but has spent the last 5+ hours on "zn_poly tuning program." Is this normal? It hasn't stalled, but has effectively tripled the compilation time (at le

Here are my thoughts as a non-mathematician (ie disregard as needed/ always) : I should preface with the comment that I think this is a good talk with the significant caveat that my input may be worthless since I don't know the audience. The second quote on page 4 of the pdf is quite long in my

[sage-devel] how to submit upgraded biopython spkg for python-2.6?

2009-07-26 Thread tkeller
Thanks for all the recent work upgrading the base python distribution to 2.6, I imagine it was quite a task. I noticed that installing the biopython-1.49b spkg is broken from the upgrade . I have upgraded the spkg to 1.51b and it installs and works fine on my sage-4.1 installation. Is there a plac
