Running Sage 5.3 on a MacBook Pro with OS X version 10.7.5, I want to use the
modulo operator % in defining a function of a variable, as in the following
example:
t = var('t')
L(t) = t*725.5 % 360.0
plot(L, 0,5)
This produces the following error message:
...
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for %:
'sage.symbolic.expression.Expression' and
'sage.symbolic.expression.Expression'
I can use other arithmetic operators such as + and / in this function
expression, but not %, and I don't understand why. Is there an alternative or
workaround so that I can compute the quantity L dependent on this variable t
and then graph the remainder of L mod 360 for a given range of values of t?
Thanks for any advice,
Kim
