Comment (by kcrisman):
You already have #16333 for the purposes of actually writing the gambit
interface, as long as a few examples we test here work out properly this
time I think this ticket should be ''just'' for adding gambit. Maybe you
could put in a couple absolutely minimal gambit-optional doctests to
verify that it imports and creates a game, I guess. This could be in a
file gambit.py that just serves as a way for people to test and use it
independently of Sage (though see below because of the preparser):
For instance, I still get the following (it does compile now):
{{{
sage: sage: import gambit
sage: sage: gambit.Game.new_tree()
EFG 2 R "" { }
""
t "" 0
sage: g.players[0].label="A" # turns out not to work in Sage because of
preparer, that's okay
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError: collection indexes must be int or str, not Integer
sage: g.players[int(0)].label="A"
}}}
I can't find the previously non-working version in the documentation now,
maybe that was changed. For posterity, it doesn't work now.
{{{
sage: sage: gambit.new_tree()
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError Traceback (most recent call
last)
<ipython-input-3-46627785e350> in <module>()
----> 1 gambit.new_tree()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'new_tree'
}}}
Travis, did you try any actual gambit examples? If these work I guess
that would be enough.
Vincent, I think that the gambit documentation still leaves something to
be desired. For instance,
{{{
In [1]: g = gambit.Game.read_game("e02.nfg")
}}}
doesn't work right, because the file is not there (I guess). In R and
similar things there is a standard way to access such built-in examples.
Not necessary per se, but it would be nice if examples worked right.
