I tried to avoid having too many categories. Mathematically OrderedField does not say more than Join(Field, OrderedRing). But Spad compiler distinguishes the two, if you require OrderedField for an argument, then Join(Field, OrderedRing) is not enough. So requiring OrderedField we need to assert it explicitely. Note that it does not work well with conditional exports, we would need extra conditional rules for OrderedField while currently rules for OrderedRing and Field are enough. This probably does not make much difference for ordered fields, but as a general rule due to propagation of conditions longish Join-s in domain conditions are preferable to "shortcuts" like OrderedField. -- Waldek Hebisch -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
