This does not involve coercion. h.__mul__(3) figures out that 3 is scalar multiplication and handles it. sage: 3*h #doesn't work > This requires coercion, as 3.__mul__(h) can't possibly know about h being a vector space morphism. Hence you need the coercion infrastructure, and in particular _an_element_(). Just implement that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
