Comment (by was):
In Sage before this patch, the sage notebook, the Python command line,
etc., we have:
{{{
for i in range(10):
i
}}}
outputs the numbers up to 10.
With the new Ipython spkg, etc., we don't.
{{{
sage: for i in range(10): i
sage:
Exiting Sage (CPU time 0m0.07s, Wall time 2m3.22s).
blastoff:sage wstein$ sage -ipython
Python 2.7.2 (default, May 17 2012, 13:12:30)
In [1]: for i in range(10): i
In [2]:
}}}
I'm disappointed, especially because I thought this through and in sagews
I recently wrote code so this works correctly in a single cell, even if
there are several instances of this. It's a matter of passing the
'single' option to exec, as is documented in the Python reference. I
wonder why they screwed this up in Ipython 0.12...?
Anyway, I'm not saying this is a show stopper at all - I want the new
ipython in sage. I'm just a little concerned that literally the first
thing I tried shows that they made what I consider a bad design choice.
Hopefully it was just bad luck.
