This probably won't work for code that goes into the Sage library -- at least, for code that is somehow exposed in sage.all. It will create circular import problems as sage.all imports your module (possibly indirectly) and your module imports sage.all. For code that's not in sage.rings, I sometimes do from sage.rings.all import ZZ but in code that's (directly or indirectly) imported by sage.rings.all that would cause the same problem. > Cheers, > Simon Carl -- To post to this group, send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
