I don't know if I agree. I mean, certainly it makes sense to integrate symbolic expressions and to plot them, but the point of the deprecation warning is that you should specify which variable you want to integrate with respect to, or plot with respect to. Then again, with plot(), if there's more than one free variable in the symbolic expression, it doesn't make sense to plot it anyway. The same is true of numerical integration (though not of symbolic integration). So I guess I answered my own question. Note: the above reasoning doesn't apply to plot3d() - there is still ambiguity as to which of two free variables should be on the x axis and which on the y axis. And maybe that's why plot3d(), unlike plot(), does seem to generate the deprecation warning. -Keshav ---- Join us in #sagemath on irc.freenode.net ! -- 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org
