Yes, I know. But I can't figure out where a different Maxima is used - symbolic_sum lives in calculus.py, so it should be using the calculus Maxima, right? I just can't figure out where two different Maximas (Maximae?) are being used here, and I'd appreciate help tracking it down :( - kcrisman -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
