How attached are people to creating deterministic output where none is warranted?
Currently, there is a "sort" routine in f.roots which creates a 60% overhead: sage: C=ComplexField(100) sage: %timeit f.roots(multiplicities=False) 1000 loops, best of 3: 703 µs per loop sage: %timeit [C(a) for a in F.polroots(precision=C.prec())] The slowest run took 4.22 times longer than the fastest. This could mean that an intermediate result is being cached. 1000 loops, best of 3: 432 µs per loop Is it really worth that much to enforce output to be in some arbitrary order? I'd hope we can do away with this and instead just sort stuff in doctests, if people want to test their floating point results using string matching. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
