Breaking "print a" will cause a truly epic level of pain to our users for no real gain... So much so that probably no matter what is decided here I would fork sage to add handling this to the pre-processor for sage on SMC. I'm here from endless users (eg each year at the sage booth) about minor deprecations that piss them off. This print thing will be horrible. Truly horrible.
I programmed in python3 many of my waking hours for the last 2 weeks and even last night I was still making mistakes with print. I'm absolutely certain users will have similar trouble, both adapting their own code and in changing. It's just psychology. (Personally i really like Python3 and the new print function. However, I (and you) are not the only user of sage.) William On Tuesday, May 24, 2016, John Cremona <john.crem...@gmail.com> wrote: > We seem to be stuck.
