[sage-support] Simplifying log expressions

2012-01-12 Thread Tom Judson
I would like to simplify the difference of two log expressions to show that I get a constant, but simplify((1/2)*log(2*t) - (1/2)*log(t)) just returns the expression. Does anyone know of an easy fix for this? Preferably, I would like something that Calculus II students could easily use. Tom Ju
