Re: [sage-support] Re: Lambda functions vs. defining functions

I assumed that SageMath converts the functions into symbolic expressions. If I enter the following it will work: f=lambda x: x*sin(x) diff(f(x),x) def g(x): return x*sin(x) diff(g(x),x) On Wednesday, August 10, 2016 at 4:01:09 PM UTC-5, Harald Schilly wrote: > > On Wed, Aug 10, 2016 at

[sage-support] Re: Lambda functions vs. defining functions

I'm aware of the difference between the two approaches in vanilla Python, I was just trying to figure out if SageMath treats the two differently. You can integrate and differentiate both types of functions in SageMath as well as use them for solving differential equations. -Todd On Wednesda

[sage-support] Lambda functions vs. defining functions

Is there any significant difference in SageMath between defining a function using lambda vs. defining it using 'def ...:'? Both situations result in functions that can be differentiated, integrated, etc so I'm not sure if there is any functional difference between the two methods in SageMath.

I just encountered this problem sage -i py3 ( to install python3)... broke my whole system... Is there a single "undo" operation so that I can return to my working copy? On Wednesday, October 21, 2015 at 6:30:31 AM UTC-5, Emmanuel Charpentier wrote: > > This is probably related to Trac#1852
