[sage-support] Re: Symbolic computation is slow

Hello, Sympy provides it's own matrices. As mentioned before, there needs to be more work done with sympy in Sage so that what you tried does work. In the meantime, look at the following example: sage: import sympy sage: x = sympy.Symbol('x') sage: m = sympy.Matrix([[1,x],[x,1]]) sage: m 1 x x

[sage-support] Display of polynomials

2007-12-31 Thread pgdoyle
The following behavior is not what I want or expect for the ordering of terms when Sage displays a polynomial: sage: 1-x 1 - x sage: 1+x x + 1 sage: 1-x^2 1 - x^2 sage: 1+x^2 x^2 + 1 sage: 1+x-x^2 -x^2 + x + 1 sage: 1+x+x^2 x^2 + x + 1 Is there some way to let Sage know that I'd prefer a consist

Try this in Sage: R. = QQ[] M=matrix(R,2,3,[1,2,3,a,b,c]) M.permanent() N = M.substitute(a=400,b=2,c=0) print "Happy", N.permanent() Jaap Permanents are here forever! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To
