If you are trying to have your students develop a symbolic library by
themselves, programming something like n() would indeed be quite nontrivial,
since you have to use a specific numeric algorithm to find an arbitrary
precision approximation for any object that is in the library.
You could set
It may be little consolation for end users, but people do not realize
what a tour de force SageTeX is.
It also took me a while to get SageTeX to work on my Mac, but it is
worth every minute of it.

Actually, would the authors be willing to share how things are running
in the background (meaning, in the server side)?
Something on the lines of Jason Grout's instructions in

Could there be a function slen() that retuns a Sage integer (analogous
to srange())? Or you can simply define it in your own worksheet:
def slen(lst):
return Integer(len(lst))

This probably is also a "subotimal" solution, but I have written Python code
to generate exams using SageTeX, I have even a tentative interface using
PyQT. If anyone is willing to try it, I'll be glad to send it. It is not

The thing is that I want to have some sort of time stamp so I know

It seems this topic branched into two different issues...
I had a similar problem with a recent Sage installation I made (In
ubuntu). I installed Sage, and SageTex according to the "official"
documentation (get SageTex from the Sage site, set a local texmf
structure, etc.), and had exceptions runn

I teach a course in which all exams require the use of Sage. I do this
only in an upper-level course, with at most 20 students. The exams
always have two parts. In the in-class part, I ask them to use Sage
for the computations and write the solutions on paper with an
explanation of the method of so

I had a similar problem a couple months ago. It happened whey I upgraded
Sage. I tried several things, and kept getting a "permission error" when
trying to evaluate a cell.
(BTW, to which port is your server listen to?)
I then decided to try the following instructions, by Jason Grout:

This is how round(x) is in the C library:
(http://www.gnu.org/s/libc/manual/html_node/Rounding-Functions.html)
Function: double round (double x)
— Function: float roundf (float x)
— Function: long double roundl (long double x)
These functions are similar to rint, but the

This worked for me, but it is definitely hackish and cumbersome. You
basically define the function in a string, exec the string to create
the function, and then use the function interact, instead using the
decoration @interact. (I've read it is frowned up, but...)
# first cell
fields = ['a','b','
That's the reason I didn't post it anywhere else. I knew nothing about this
stuff until a month ago, and would not feel comfortable making it look
"official" before others look it over.

Sure, once I actually write them. So far I just experimented with the stuff.

Thanks, I will try it.
What I want do is pretty simple, simply open an image, add noise to it
and try error-correcting codes. I was able to do it easily with PIL. I
am actually thinking of what to use for bit operations, etc. My plan
is to simply use Numpy, but octave may be an alternative.
On S
I just got pyglet to do what I want, it is pretty easy to use and well
documented. Since it is already in the standard distribution, as part
of sympy, would it not make sense simply making it more
straightforward to import?

Before I start: to which Sage version should I apply this? Should I
download a development version? I noticed that current distributions
are "3.2", and in TRAC I see things like "3.3", "3.4".

Here is a basic question: how to enter the HTML text between cells? Is
there a handy way to do it? The only thing I could figure out is to
jump back and forth from "Worksheet" to "Edit".
(I also saw the LaTeX-Sage converter, but still have to experiment with it.)
