[sage-support] Re: factoring polynomials

Oops posted too quickly. The alternative is to use the symbolic ring, though strictly speaking that doesn't let you factor only find roots: sage: var('x') x sage: (x^2-2).solve(x) [x == -sqrt(2), x == sqrt(2)] -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe

2011-02-26 Thread Volker Braun
You can factor it in any field that contains a square root of two. For example, we can construct a suitable number field over QQ: sage: z = QQ['z'].0 sage: K = NumberField(z^2 - 2,'sqrt2'); K Number Field in sqrt2 with defining polynomial z^2 - 2 In this number field, you can (somewhat tautologi

[sage-support] factoring polynomials

2011-02-26 Thread David
Is it possible to persuade sage to factor polynomials symbolically over the reals or complex numbers? All I can do so far is get, say, x^2-2 to factor over RR, which gives me decimal approximations. The solve function has no trouble giving me sqrt(2). I'm interested in using sage primarily for calc

If you update Chrome and the Jmol package in Sage it will work. See this newer thread: http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/browse_thread/thread/47046e1c81d75d24 -- Benjamin Jones On Jan 27, 2:29 am, pong wrote: > I just wonder if any one has any success in getting Jmol to run > insideC
