Um, yes, but given our relative positions in this debate, the onus is not really on *me* to demonstrate such an application, right? That would just confuse everbody ;-) (FWIW, Sagemath is not mostly "numerical processing", it is mostly *symbolic* calculations and involves a lot of complex algorithms and datastructures, including sequences.)
