Hello
Mathematica has a symbolic product so that means Sage should. I don't
think Sage does.
I found symbolic sum but not symbolic product in the reference files.
I need to be able to define a function of a variable x which involves
several symbolic products from 1 to n or whatever. I then want to be
able to do a derivative and a limit of this. I am trying out Sage
because Mathematica doesn't seem to be able to handle this stuff
exactly. I can define the function just fine but when I try to take
the limit Mathematica can't seem to handle it. Even when I give n a
value of 2 and the limit should be extremely easy, Mathematica can not
do it. So, I thought I would see if Sage could handle such a thing.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks
What Mathematica commands were you executing. It would help if you gave us an
example of what you have done, and what you are trying to achieve and what you
are expecting.
Likewise, what have you tried in Sage, though in this case it might be more
restrictive, as you don't believe Sage has the command you want.
