Comment (by whuss):
I wanted to remove the factorial in rings.arith completely, because I
think it is confusing
to have to different factorial functions at the toplevel. Also Sage
doesn't do this for the
other symbolic functions like sin().
In the previous version rings.arith.factorial_numeric() was just there
because I had not yet
solved the problem of circular imports at Sage startup.
Now second patch that I just uploaded fixes this problem. Now there is
only the factorial
in calculus.all.
With both patches applied to sage-3.2alpha1 all doctests pass for me.
