I make the following script (pi.sage):
------------------------
for p in [2..10]:
R=RealField(10^p)
pii=4*atan(R(1))
print p,R,pii
------------------------
Then, using sage 7.0 or 7.1.beta4:
attach("pi.sage")
This produces a lot of seemingly correct output, but, as it takes a too
long time to finish :-), I interrupt the computation (Ctrl-c).
So, lets try again; replace 10 by 5 in the for statement (I do not leave sage). I get NaNs:
2 Real Field with 100 bits of precision NaN 3 Real Field with 1000 bits of precision NaN 4 Real Field with 10000 bits of precision NaN 5 Real Field with 100000 bits of precision NaN ..... Strange.
