[sage-support] simple integration with absolute value
Good morning, the command integrate( abs(x^2-1), x, -2,2) does not do the job automatically. I have seen on this discussion group another, at least, similar message. Is there an organized list of functions that are yet implemented for integration? How can one cooperate without being a sage programmer? Thank you.

Sage's symbolic integration is currently just calling out to Maxima, so you might ask about this on a Maxima list. Maxima's symbolic integration is some huge undocumented lisp program from ages gone by... The above doesn't return a closed result partly because Maxima doesn't: wstein@sage:~$ sage -maxima Maxima 5.23.2 http://maxima.sourceforge.net (%i1) integrate(abs(x^2-1),x,-2,2) ; 2 / [! 2! (%o1) I!x - 1! dx ] / - 2 You might find this useful though: sage: numerical_integral(abs(x^2-1),-2,2) (3.9996, 4.4408920985006262e-14) or sage: N(integral(abs(x^2-1),(x,-2,2))) 3.9996 How can one cooperate without being a sage programmer?

[sage-support] Maybe not a sage problem?
Hi all, I'm using sage 4.7 on ubuntu 11.04, and I am having problems with 3dplots, but this happens only with the notebook interface. 2D plots are o.k. in both modes, and 3d plots from the terminal work fine, so jmol is there. Whe trying to do a 3d plot, a black square appears in my browser. In previous versions on ubuntu i already had the same problem, howver at that time, things went fine if I used chromium as default browser. Now this solution does not work anymore. I have both OpenJDK and sun-java installed. I think the problem may come form java, since, for instance some geogebra applets do not work properly in my browser. What do I do to know?

[sage-support] Generating extension fields
Suppose that I have field (it's actually a finite field, but it would be nice to know if this works in more generality) F, and an extension field K. If a[0], ..., a[k] are elements of K, I'd like to generate the field F obtained by adjoining these elements to F as a sage object. Is there a method to do this?

[sage-support] integrate() problem
Hi. What's going on here? sage y=(x^2)*exp(x)/(1+exp(x))^2 integrate(y,(x,-infinity,infinity)) 0 /sage Sage gives me zero here. But 'y' is strictly positive everywhere, and I happen to know that the analytic answer is pi^2/3.
