Comment:

 A few things I would like to see:
 - Instead of `log()` I would prefer to see linking via {{{:meth:`log()`}}}
 - The line `Use with the RDF function...`, I would change it to
   {{{
   You can use the
 :class:`RDF<sage.rings.real_double.RealDoubleField_class>`,
   :class:`~sage.rings.real_mpfr.RealField` or ``n`` to get a numerical
 real approximation::
   }}}
   since `RDF` is the real double field and it is constructing an element
 of that class.
 - Remove the line about the `n` function
 - Add your real name as the author on the trac ticket

 You can check to make sure the documentation looks correct too by calling
 `sage -docbuild reference html` and looking in the `doc/output/html/`
 folder in your web browser.

 Thanks,[[BR]]
 Travis
