Replying to [comment:7 ppurka]:
> Some minor comments:
> 1. Is it necessary or useful to add `_latex` method to
`GraphicsPrimitive` and override that from the `arc`, `line`, etc? I think
this method is used only in `Graphics` so that only one
`\begin{tikzpicture}` is used, right? Since the classes `Arc`, `Line`, etc
are not exposed hence it doesn't seem to matter whether the method is
named `latex` or `_latex`. I am not sure which is the correct approach
here, so I am just curious.
In any cases, all the methods should be named _latex_, for consistency
with SageObject. At this point, I don't see a use for having _latex_ in
GraphicsPrimitive, since there is already a default (admittedly pretty
useless in this case) implementation in SageObject.
> 2. Should it return an empty string from `Graphics` if there are no
objects in it? Again, I am just wondering because I am not sure which
behavior is more appropriate. Currently, this patch results in the
following behavior:
> {{{
> sage: G = Graphics()
> sage: latex(G)
> \begin{tikzpicture}
>
> \end{tikzpicture}
> sage: len(G)
> 0
> }}}
That's sounds reasonable; let's not introduce a special case.
> 3. The check for `None` should be done by using `is` or `is not`,
according to [http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#programming-
recommendations this PEP].
