In Sage 9.2 and earlier one has: sage: RIF(1.0) < 2.0 True sage: RIF(1.0, 3.0) < 2.0 False
but in Sage 9.3beta8 (most recent docker image) such comparisons raise the below exception. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- TypeError Traceback (most recent call last) <ipython-input-1-4b034be5c139> in <module> ----> 1 RIF(RealNumber('1.0')) < RealNumber('2.0') ~/sage/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sage/structure/element.pyx in sage.structure.element.Element.__richcmp__ (build/cythonized/sage/structure/element.c:10370)() 1109 return (<Element>self)._richcmp_(other, op) 1110 else: -> 1111 return coercion_model.richcmp(self, other, op) 1112 1113 cpdef _richcmp_(left, right, int op): ~/sage/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sage/structure/coerce.pyx in sage.structure.coerce.CoercionModel.richcmp (build/cythonized/sage/structure/coerce.c:20790)() 2004 # so we raise an exception. 2005 if op == Py_LT: -> 2006 raise bin_op_exception('<', x, y) 2007 elif op == Py_LE: 2008 raise bin_op_exception('<=', x, y) TypeError: unsupported operand parent(s) for <: 'Real Interval Field with 53 bits of precision' and 'Real Field with 53 bits of precision' Is this change intensional or is this a regression? I noticed because some of SnapPy's doctests fail on 9.3beta8. Thanks, Nathan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
