Here's a relatively minor issue that might not be minor for someone new to Sage.
In illustrating very simple probability as len(outcomes)/len(sample_space), integer division occurs, so the probability becomes 0. Easy enough to correct - but it prompts discussion of why do we even have to bother with that? In a class where we're interested also in pure bare bones Pythonic expression of ideas, this provides a nice example of how Python 2 and Python 3 differ, but for classes not interested in programming per se, just in 'math', it might be seen as a glitch. -- ================================== "What I cannot create, I do not understand." - Richard Feynman ================================== "Computer science is the new mathematics." - Dr. Christos Papadimitriou ================================== -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-edu" group.
