I want len(optional_packages()[1]) but I get an error. It seems sage: len(optional_packages()[int(1)]) 41 or sage: len(flatten(list(optional_packages()))) 41 is the right command (should int(1) really be needed?). sage: len(flatten(list(standard_packages()))) 91 For completeness: sage: len(flatten(list(experimental_packages()))) 59 > > I don't know, however, if you run into the same permission issues. > > Cheers, > Simon > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
