Hi Dan!
I played with sagetex today. That's cool stuff :-)
I have a feature request: an environment where I could use the same
syntax as in usual doctests (without the sage results):
\begin{sageexample}
sage: 1 + 1
sage: def f(x):
... x^2
sage: f(3)
\end{sageexample}
And have it typeset with the sage commands in texttt, interspersed
with the Sage outputs, in (display) math mode:
sage: 1 + 1
2
sage: def f(x):
... x^2
sage: f(3)
9
Here is my current partial implementation:
\newenvironment{sageexample}{%
\def\verba...@processline{\hspace{\sagetexindent}sage:
\the\verba...@line\[\sage{\the\verbatim@line}\]}%
\verbatim}%
{\endverbatim}
It does not handle the sage: / ... line prefixes. Those should
probably be passed down to sage + sagetex.py and handled there,
reusing the doctest infrastructure.
Oh, and by the way, another dream feature would be a
\sageinert{diff(sin(x),x)} which would typeset an inert version of the
given formula, without evaluating it. A typical use case would be to
get nicely typeset equations like:
\sageinert{diff(sin(x),x)} = \sage{diff(sin(x),x)}
But I don't know how feasible or even meaningful this would currently
be. For the record, MuPAD had such a mechanism which was used for
typesetting formulas in the documentation.
Cheers,
Nicolas
