Comment:
I tried to review that one, but I have some questions (maybe unrelated to
that ticket):
{{{
sage: R = QQbar['x']
sage: f = R(x)
...
NotImplementedError: symbol
}}}
This works this way:
{{{
sage: R.<x> = PolynomialRing(QQbar)
sage: f = R(x)
}}}
but then:
{{{
sage: f = R(x^2)
sage: f.factor()
...
NotImplementedError:
}}}
What is the point of being able to factor only constant polynomials over
QQbar?
