Replying to [comment:29 vbraun]:
> The mathematica interface needs to implement `prec()` and/or `n()`
methods. Right now they just fall through to the `__getattr__` hook and
are translated in nonsensical Mathematica functions.
OK, I have implemented `n()`, and it works.
But I am at loss as to how to implement `N()` (i.e. the Mathematica
function call).
The problem is that `get()` method of Mathematica class in
https://github.com/sagemath/sage/blob/develop/src/sage/interfaces/mathematica.py#L517
should get the parameter `ascii_art` set to True while it calls
Mathematica via Expect.
And I cannot find an interface that would do this for me.
