Comment:
This needs more work, since the function {{{self_compose}}} fails for n=0:
{{{
sage: function('f');
sage: h=self_compose(f,0)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError Traceback (most recent call
last)
/localdisk/tmp/sage-4.6/<ipython console> in <module>()
/localdisk/tmp/sage-4.6/local/lib/python2.6/site-
packages/sage/misc/misc.pyc in self_compose(f, n)
890 # all necessary powers of two (f, f^2, f^4), storing them in a
list
891 fs = [f]
--> 892 for i in xrange(int(floor(log(n, 2)))):
893 fs.append(compose(fs[i], fs[i]))
894
ValueError: math domain error
