Comment:
Replying to [comment:7 rws]:
> Done. Unfortunately this is Cython so I had to pick a value that signals
default, changed to -65535 now.
I think that replacing `int order=-65535` by `order=None` would lead to
clearer code at a negligible performance penalty.
Further comments:
* The docstrings of `series_precision` and `set_series_precision` should
have `EXAMPLE` sections.
* The parameter `default_prec` of the Laurent series classes should be
explained; the only explanation now is in `def default_prec(self)` which
should be rephrased anyway ("Set ..." is not correct).
* I'd like to see doctests showing examples on how to construct series
with different values for `set_series_precision`
* {{{:meth:`set_series_precision`}}} is a dead link.
