Comment(by robertwb):

 For the most part this looks good, and specifically I wasn't able to find
 any precision issues.

 * I think the elliptic exponential should actually return a point on E(C),
 not just a tuple (x,y)

 * The docstring in elliptic exponential about to_Weierstrass is wrong.
 (Maybe it could be to_curve, default True to give something on E(C), false
 returning the raw {{{(wp(z), wp'(z))}}}.

 * The {{{antilogarithm}}} shouldn't simply discard the imaginary part:

 {{{
 sage: E = EllipticCurve('389a')
 sage: z0 = CC(1.76776906963, 0.303020775118)
 sage: E.elliptic_exponential(z0)
 (1.00012725137998 + 1.00002216580174*I,
  0.000229106700941339 + 2.00010160734906*I)
 sage: E.antilogarithm(z0, 10)
 (1 : 0 : 1)
 }}}
