What else would it be? I think one of the reasons for it was precisely to provide something for Maxima's `infinity` to become in Sage. Though note sage: Infinity +Infinity which is annoying. But we already have sage: -oo == unsigned_infinity True so as long as one is willing to live with sage: -oo < 0 True sage: 0 < unsigned_infinity True sage: -oo < unsigned_infinity False as documented, it should be okay. I mean, what does comparison even MEAN with complex infinity in the mix? I suppose you could make it incomparable to anything but itself. Really I think it's just there as a way to handle certain results that come out, and then we added various methods so it fit in the algebraic framework - for better or worse. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
