Hi folks,
When comparing the product of two square roots to the square root of
the product using two scalars, I get True:
sage: bool(sqrt(pi)*sqrt(2) == sqrt(pi*2))
True
But when using a variable instead of one of the scalars, I get False:
sage: n = var('n')
sage: assume(n>=0)
sage: bool(sqrt(pi)*sqrt(n) == sqrt(pi*n))
False
Note that I've seen a related behavior whereby Sage doesn't simplify
the product of two square roots when one of them is a variable, as in:
sage: integrate(e^(-x^2/n),x,0,oo).simplify_full()
1/2*sqrt(pi)*sqrt(n)
So, might I be missing something or might this be a bug?
