[sage-support] Symbolic rational variable

2015-03-14 Thread david.guichard
I'm looking for a way to create a symbolic rational variable--it must be possible, right? I want to do something like this: R = PolynomialRing(QQ,'x');S.a=R.quotient(x^3+x+1);S1.y = S[]; (y^3+y+1)(y=a); var('b1 b2 b3') (b1+b2*a+b3*a^2)^2 and get

Hello! I have the following problem, and I do not know whether it is a bug or a supposed behaviour. I upload a C program to my worksheet and compile it using the server's GCC with this command: os.system(cd +DATA+ gcc infinite_cycle.c -o infinite_cycle.bin) Than I start the obtained

Re: [sage-support] Unexpected behaviour: xgcd with rationals

Dear Álinson, This is now fixed in the new release sage-6.5 sage: xgcd(4,2) (2, 0, 1) sage: xgcd(Rational(4),Rational(2)) (2, 0, 1) But be careful that the output type depends on the input sage: a,b,c = xgcd(4,2) sage: d,e,f = xgcd(Rational(4), Rational(2)) sage: type(a), type(b), type(c)

Hi I have no idea how to solve this. If you create and log in as a different user, does it have the same problem? (I can confirm my PPA installs do not show this error) It might also help to ask on an ipython list (but mention that you get this in sage). Or install ipython from
