As you've noted, this is possible to get around. Also, if there

I think this counts as a "success story". I've used Sage in two
classes now: Honors Calc I, and MAT 305, a class our department calls
"Mathematical Computing",

This calculus is maple-right but is user-discourteous.
M = matrix ([[a,b],[c,d]])
0*M = 0 with maple, and all other systems answer matrix([[0,0],[0,0]])

I just installed sage on my linux server and i was wondering if anyone
could tell me what im doing wrong here with this equation.
The Equation says to factor this
1/9x^2 -1/6xy^2 + 1/16y^4
the answer they give in the textbook for the above equation is this
(1/3x -1/4y^2)
I put the equation i

I think this counts as a "success story". I've used Sage in two classes
now: Honors Calc I, and MAT 305, a class our department calls
"Mathematical Computing", where we basically teach majors who have
completed the Calculus sequence some programming. In the past we used
Maple. The class was or

Here's a quick shot at one, using the fact that the orthogonal
