I tried a lot of different things but was not able to do any better. I ended up just implementing my program using a different algorithm. It doesnt seem to be working in all cases yet, but its 2x faster than the old program in the cases its producing the same answer as the old program, and i ha

After some investigation, I can think of two possible solutions: 1. Changing the code of "spherical_bessel_J" in sage/functions/special.py from return meval("spherical_bessel_j(%s,%s)"%(ZZ(n),var)) to return meval("float(spherical_bessel_j(%s,%s))"%(ZZ(n),var)) 2. Change the return value of Ma

More info on the wrong evaluation from Maxima: This seems to be happening when the second argument of spherical_bessel_J is an RR, but not if it is in ZZ o QQ. On Friday, July 19, 2013 12:18:51 PM UTC+2, Jesús Torrado wrote: > > Hi there, > > Have a look at the second line: > > sage: maxima

Hi there, Have a look at the second line: sage: maxima('spherical_bessel_j(50,9.5)') 18.003620332195756l-33 sage: spherical_bessel_J(50,9.5, algorithm="maxima") # default algorithm 18.0036203322*l - 33 sage: spherical_bessel_J(50, 9.5, algorithm="scipy") 1.800362033219550
