There's no global function for it, but what you want is to call full_simplify() on the expression. sage: f = (1/2)*log(2*t) - (1/2)*log(t) sage: f.full_simplify() 1/2*log(2) -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
